“It’s a fascinating story.” MITCH LAFON

 

“This one’s kind of interesting. When Joe called him up to join the band (Mach) started a diary. It’s great read. It’s a first person account. I avoid a lot of the rock star books, just because…”Dude. You were on heroin. How are you gonna tell me what you were doing (back then)?…I like the fact that (this) is authentic.” AVAILABLE ON ALL PODCAST PLATFORMS  E468 Joe Perry Project

Welcome to the show

 

“I just finished an awesome book which I think you’d enjoy, simply if you love rock ’n’ roll. Now, if you’re an Aerosmith and Joe Perry fan, I know you’re gonna want to read this one.

And if you’re a fan of Boston Rock’n’Roll it’s a no-brainer…"

What's inside the Diary?

Some of the things you’ll read about in my new book:

  

First and foremost, my 326 page music memoir is a detailed documentary of the years I spent singing with the Joe Perry Project in 1982, 1983 and 1984. 

Along the way, I share dozens of my other rock’n’roll memories and tales.


The 60’s and the New England Teen Scene, Jimi Hendrix Experience and Led Zeppelin in Framingham, What’s Happening Mr. Silver? The WBZ Sundeck Studio at the Surf Nantasket - and my band - Joe Flash.


The 70’s. At the Rat in Boston, storming New England and NYC with my band THUNDERTRAIN. Playing and partying with the Dead Boys, David Johansen, The Cars, the Runaways, Willie Loco Alexander, David Bowie  and more ...


The Big 80’s. Pop culture goes bonkers. MTV, Chicken McNuggets, ATMs, VCRs, Hard Rock Cafe and Buffalo Wings invade America. Ronald Reagan is in the White House and  if you're lucky, the JOE PERRY PROJECT is playing  tonight at your local rock'n'roll dive. 


Road Tripping: Join Danny Hargrove, Joe Perry, me - and the rest of the Project gang inside the JPP van as we cruise from Boston to New Orleans. Las Vegas to Miami. Caracas to Toronto. Detroit to Huntington Beach and beyond…


Scenes from Venues from all over North America: In the dressing rooms and onstage at the Bottom Line,  Agora Ballrooms, El Mocambo, Max’s, Hollywood Palace, Pocono Raceway, CBGB’s, Keystone Clubs, Wichita Falls Raceway, Reseda Country Club, the Channel, Harpo’s, New England Dragway, El Poliedro and hundreds more… 


AEROSMITH - the early days. My memories of their first shows at the start of 1971. I also  share my personal experiences performing and recording with Brad Whitford and playing live onstage with Joey Kramer and Steven Tyler.  Plus, my behind-the-scenes tales.


Rock Bands and Celebrities: We’ll be crossing paths with Alice Cooper, Marshall Tucker Band, Stiv Bators, NRBQ, Stray Cats, The Ramones, Kim Simmonds/Savoy Brown, Huey Lewis and the News, Cyrinda Foxe, the Fools, Gale Huff, Howard Leese of Heart, Kix, Clarence Clemons, the Godz, Gary U.S. Bonds, The Outlaws, Robin Young, James Montgomery, Krokus, Tim Bogert, Rick Derringer, Gregg Allman, Sara Edwards, Cheap Trick, Steppenwolf, Jim Dandy, Wrabit, MaryBella, Les Dudek, the Stompers, Blackfoot, Duke and the Drivers, Ric Ocasek, Lee Aaron, Nazareth, Johnny A, David Johansen Group, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts to name but a few.
