161. LIFERS - Scott Lucas and the Married Men

The LIFERS Podcast

Scott’s “solo” band —Scott Lucas & The Married Men— is actually a fairly large and open ended collective of Chicago music scene veterans and dyed in the wool lifers (it’s also a close-knit family of friends, but we’ll get to that). The list of bands that the members of The Married Men have been in (and continue to be in) could make up its own podcast series: The Tossers, Caviar, The Joy Poppers, Cisco Pike, The Cells, The Girls, A Band Called Horse, Sourball, Ness, and Jesus Christ! Our head hurts!! As we were saying — each member of The Married Men is a lifer with their own story to tell. But this isn’t that episode. On THIS episode, Ben and Gabe catch up with the band at the Local H practice space as they get ready to practice for their first show in a year: Playing The Metro in Chicago on March 16 — opening for The Tossers at their annual St. Patrick’s Day show. Topics include: Most of the bands that have already been listed, Double Door Halloween shows, how Randy created the first double Quarter Pounder with cheese, UFO, shitty videos, scary dolls, and THREE(!!!) rounds of Iron Maiden vs. The Replacements. This one is fairly chaotic. So watch out.
