Rock On! This Week's Sound Bites...8/1/24
by Danny Coleman - published 2024-08-01
"It's a one-off thing; I'm not exaggerating, every weekend we are doing multiple shows and by the end of the year we'll probably wind up doing about 68 one-offs and plus we're doing a seven week tour that's 35 shows so we'll be right around 100 shows for the year. This show is a one-off, we're flying in just for this show. We're working more than any band I know, I talk to other bands and they are like, man, you guys are awesome, you're killing it and I say, we're trying to, we're killin' something, hopefully not ourselves," laughed Everclear's main man Art Alexakis as he talked about their most recent release "Live at the Whisky A Go Go," the music industry and their upcoming August 8 show at Camden's Cooper River Park.
