For the first time since the very first time in March, I’m doing two shows in one weekend!
The LeBrain Train: 2000 Words or More with Mike Ladano
Episode 34
As suggested by the inimitable Kevin / Buried on Mars, Friday’s show will be the Nigel Tufnel Top 10 Van Halen deep cuts. Join the panel and I as we run through the best stuff they don’t play on the radio. Friday October 30 at 7:00 PM E.S.T.
Episode 35
Halloween Memories! One thing I’ve noticed this year is that many friends are really bummed about the loss of Halloween. I feel bad about this so I thought I’d throw a Halloween live stream party. I used to be a real Halloween kid, so I thought it would be a lot of fun to just talk Halloween memories! I have many good ones going back to the 1970s, and best of all, I will be in costume! Saturday October 31 at 7:00 PM E.S.T.

I am looking forward to Halloween memories. I wonder what the costume is…… I have an idea. Any guests?

Get Up will, of course, be number one on everyone’s Van Halen list

HAHA! The one I introduced you to, eh? I never thought it was that great, just a cool gonzo balls to the wall track, but nothing particularly special.

Yep, that’s the one

I have the Oberheim. It’s the synth Eddie used on at least 1984 and 5150. I’ve been messing around with it. I got a sound close to Jump and Why Can’t This Be Love. Really close.

If anyone wants to hear it, inquire.

Hate I’ll miss, but will watch it once posted. We haven’t lost Halloween here as the kids are still trick or treating, but trying to do it as safe as we can. In a subdivision with hundreds and hundreds of kids it would be almost impossible to stop it from happening.

It wouldn’t be that hard to stop it if you use a little imagination.

Ha!! Yes, I imagine we could, but we won’t. I am sneezing and coughing all over the candy to make sure I am ready to hand it out (and I am so kidding).

I purposely avoided Hear About It Later because I also hear it on the radio. I guess we’ll see if the other guys did as well. We have a few duplicates. Looks like 4 duplicates.

That’s funny. I’ve never heard it on the radio. Not even when they did their marathon after he died.

Was just talking to the Meat Man about songs we neglected. And yeah, there are a lot of songs I neglected from some great albums that will have you throwing shit at the monitor. Just because in my mind, they are hits.
We’ll see how this goes I guess!

Nah, I don’t want to break my monitor. I really didn’t feel good about including anything from the first VH I because almost every single song on there is big.

Looking forward to it!

Interesting list for sure, not what I expected. I definitely wouldn’t want Maynard on one of my shows doing a list. We’d have to boot him.
