Nice interview!! and happy Lagwagon day!

Very insightful episode! I was always curious about the writing process for this song

This is pure GOLD! Absolutely loved every minute of the interview! Beyond Tony Hawk’s game and the popularity it brings to this song in particular, I’ve always found ‘May 16th’ special. The composition, Joey’s voice, and the lyrics are just spot on! It’s melodic and nostalgic, yet always surprises me with new elements I discover throughout the years. Especially the guitars and how they blend together perfectly. That’s probably the secret sauce of Lagwagon songs and why their productions are so interesting in this genre. I didn’t even notice the voice harmony arrangement, that’s cool!

I just can’t get over how great this podcast is!!

Hope this is okay to share,, I remember Joey Cape doing an interview many years ago regarding May 16. Can’t locate it now but he had blue hair. Anyway, in that interview he was more candid about the track’s inspiration. The friend that he had a falling out with got married that day and, due to the discord, J Cape was “uninvited” to the wedding, making it “just another Saturday.” I may not be getting this 100% correct but I def recall the gist and I felt sharing was worthwhile. Will continue to look for an actual citation and update if found.

This was super rad - great interview - Joey Rules - thanks for doing it!

It would be great to hear an episode all about derrick plourde.

HAPPY LW DAY!!! They are from Golia, not SB.

Best stage dive from a band i ever saw was Todd the Rod from Propagandhi in Portland. They were playing a song and his bass stopped working. He tried to fix it for about 10 seconds and said "Fuck it" and dived in the crowd for the rest of the song. EPIC!!!

that band you may not know sounds so much like hot water music (not a complaint)

Why can't he talk about the wedding lol?
