Ep. 165 - Steve Stevens: My Number One Job Working with Billy Idol

Steve Stevens (Guitarist / Billy Idol) joins Benny, Siobhán, and Cory to discuss his Residency in Vegas, a new Billy Idol EP, and Steve Steven's personal number one job when working with Billy Idol. We dive into the current music climate, going over how apps like TikTok are changing the ways kids discover music, the downsides that come with only being a digital guitar player, and how producers are moving away from the trend of "cut and paste" on new songs. All this and more tune in with us and prepare to be 2020-d!
