More tales from the road. This week seemed like the first "normal" week back at work since the pandemic. And even though a wedding gig ended with police and EMS responding, it didn't seem out of the ordinary...

What do Santana, Keith Richards, Joan Jett, Chic, Wilson Pickett, Stanley Clarke, and Rod Stewart all have in common? The chapter in which I quantify my greatest misses.

Tailoring Talk w. Roberto Revilla - Tailoring the Memoir of a Working-Class Rock Star with Ivan "Funkboy" Bodley

The Rock N Roll Tailor meets the Funkboy Bassist this week as Roberto is joined all the way from New York by musician Ivan Bodley!
Ivan is a seasoned bass guitar player and music director. He has performed with over 50 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees and over a dozen Broadway shows. He has performed with a host of musical legends including Sting, Elvis Costello, The Temptations, Ben E. King, Percy Sledge, Bo Diddley, Carlos Santana, and U2's The Edge.

He has played Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Centre, performed on Broadway in Rock of Ages, Spider-Man and Kinky Boots, on TV with Conan O'Brien and Craig Ferguson... We could go on and on!

He recently released his book "Memoir of a Working-Class Rock Star", the tale of his life to the present day, rich with so many stories from a rollercoaster ride of a career.
