This week we welcome fellow podcaster(Rock and Wrestling Local 420), longtime Reno Deadhead, music promoter and local music lover “Cosmic” Chris Anthony Buckbee. He brought a ton of local tunes from several of his favorite Reno artists!
Paisley Braincells, 7 Seconds, Gunshot Licker, Greg Golden Band, Lab Rats, Phat Couch, and of course Cosmic Freeway! Plus a special Gunshot Licker tribute to the late great Dolly Parton.
Chris grew up in Reno, also from Oregon, and was first dubbed Hippie Chris in the nineties. Since then, he has been dubbed Kickass Chris, Cosmic Chris, and recently dubbed by Reno radio royalty Max Volume, as the Grand Puba of all things Grateful Dead in Reno. We agree. Chris is a devoted fan. Whether it’s jam bands, metal, local bands or wrestling, once Chris digs you, you have a fan for life.
We play the quiz and Good Song Bad Song. This week’s band is Nirvana. The show runs a bit longer than usual, because the stories and music were just so much fun. We’re definitely doing another episode with Cosmic Chris; we’ve barely scratched the surface.
Contact Chris at @punchingbabyyoda on Instagram.
Go see Nick and Rory acting and rocking out this weekend in Carson City at the Brewery Arts Center Maize Black Box Theater, with the still poignant Sex Drugs Rock and Roll by Eric Bogosian, directed by David Richards and paired with performances by rock bands One Ton Dually on Friday and (the)Glitter Bats on Saturday. Costumes encouraged!
Have a wonderful October! Do all the things and stay safe! Life is short, trippy and beautiful ! Thanks for listening.

This episode is such a bad idea….

We FINALLY have finished compiling your picks for the Top Ten All-Time Reno Bands and present the first half of that list This episode with more to come next week. We actualy recorded two episodes this week so that Rick could take some time off for a vacation next week. Part one includes 7 Seconds, Fall Silent, The Shames, Orange Peel, B.O.H.J., War Maggots, Keyser Soze Since it was such a special show, we opened up our doors to a lot of people this week and it’s kind of a madhouse.
