EPISODE 49: Iowa Rock Music

This month's podcast features rock music from Iowa that really hasn't fit nicely or neatly into any other category we featured before. So we have thrown all this mish-mash together in this one episode for your listening pleasure.

But it should give you an idea of the variety and breadth that Iowa's rock music can and does take.

Episode 26 - The Peace, Love, and Stuff Retrospective, Part 1 of 2

Back in September, this sad message appeared for us Peace, Love, and Stuff fans...

I meant to do this retrospective back then, but Halloween, benefits, Christmas, New Year, and the caucuses got in the way.

I don't really know what can I say, so I'm just going to repeat what I said on Facebook after Lavonne's announcement:

R.I.P. Peace, Love, and Stuff! You guys always held a special place in my heart.

You were the first band I started following shortly after my daughter got old enough to stay home alone and I was going to shows regularly again!

And apparently it was one of your first shows, at the 3rd (?) 80/35, on the local stage at the old Des Moines Social Club.

And I was quite happy being your oldest fan in more than one way!

I also enjoyed getting to know you guys as people, not just musicians. Saw you go from wild, crazy college students to responsible adults with jobs, mortgages, and rents! Guess it was preview now that the earlier mentioned daughter is now old enough to be in college!

Of course, the highlight for me was having you guys play my 50th birthday party with Lipstick Homicide and my high school buddy's band, Sinister Sons!

So good luck to each of you on your individual endeavors. I'll remember you!
