This week’s episode was literally years in the making. We’ve wanted to have Lizard McGee of alternative rockers Earwig on the show for a long time, and after doing 159 episodes… we finally got him.
We talk with Lizard about his 28-plus year music career, including his band Earwig, his solo releases and side projects. You’ll hear stories about his last tour of the United Kingdom, his own private nine-hole Scottish links-style golf course and the underground renegade golf tournament called the Silver Baby Cup. He also teases us with the tidbit that Earwig, comprised of himself (guitar/vocals), James McGee-Moore (keyboards/vocals), Constantine Hondroulis (bass) and George Hondroulis (drums) are working on music for a new album.
Plus, we also get the details on how he applied as a “golfing rock’n’roll star” and made the cut to appear on ABC television’s extreme putt-putt golf show, Holey Moley. His episode airs on ABC this Thursday (July 30) at 8 p.m. He also relates coming back from taping the show in California just before the COVID-19 lockdown took effect in Ohio, and how it has affected his life.
It’s a fast-paced show full of excellent music, wonderful stories and punctuated with laughter throughout the episode.
