Stuck In Thee Garage #536: July 12, 2024

For me, the true test of an artist is whether they can bring it live. Sometimes songs that are great in the studio can really transform in the live setting. This week, I played two hours of great live tracks on Stuck In Thee Garage. They'll make you want to get the old band back together.
