The LeBrain Train: 2000 Words or More with Mike Ladano
Episode 46 – A Chat With Martin Popoff
Join SuperDekes, Uncle Meat and myself TONIGHT as we talk to the guy who, frankly, got me writing reviews in the first place! It was Riff Kills Man that inspired me, a book that I’ve been re-reading this week only to find new revelations. I love when I feel validated by a review in one of Martin’s 90-odd books.
Martin’s extensive bibliography (he is the Isaac Asimov of Heavy Metal) includes definitive tomes on Accept, Rainbow, Judas Priest, Black Sabbath and just about every other band with legendary status. As my re-reading this week has shown me, Martin has a way of describing music that just resonates. It’s a talent that I have long envied.
Please spread the word, and welcome Martin Popoff to the LeBrain Train tonight!

Dang, well have a good errand and hopefully we’ll catch you next week for the next show — RIffs of the 1970s featuring Mike Slayen.

Oh that sounds like a cool topic, I’ll do my best to catch next week! Since I can’t make it to this livestream, I can sit back while listening to the conversation without pausing to comment. I also realized I know where I’ve seen Martin before, he has appeared on the Sea of Tranquility videos (he was on an AC/DC deep cuts episode I believe). So this will be an exciting show to watch!

It’s your big chance to tell a pro music critic what a contrarian cabbage merchant you are.

Please don’t. We might not get to viewer comments but we want the comment flooded with good stuff. We want it to be a busy, active comments section whether we can read any or not. This one is the big deal.

Excellent. I’m far too wired for any naps, and I haven’t had a coffee yet. The guys and I had a rehearsal last night (no word of a lie) and I want to bring the same energy tonight.

The support will always be here, give ‘er! Haha balls of steel. I’ll bet he figured all he had to do was ask – what’s the worst he could say, no? No biggie then, at least he tried! You should make a list of folks you’d ideally love to have on, and just ask!
