This episode of the LWICFD! Podcast stars the one and only Jonboy Rock! If you've ever been at a show by Cut Copy, Empire of the Sun, Jet, Wolfmother or Regurgitator to name but a few, JBR was probably out the front making them sound good and loud for your earholes. Jonboy toured the world for 32 years (😳) and recently hung up his frequent flyer card to concentrate on mixing and producing bands in his studio at home in Gadigal/Sydney. We have a great & nerdy chat about growing up in the 90s and how he got into the audio game, touring the world with some amazing bands and cheesecake! 😋🤓 Massive thanks to @shizafrigginhotsauce for the Friggin' hot sauce & sponsoring my show. It's hotter than Jonboy's earholes after another scorching mix 💥 so go check them out and put it on all of the foods.🤯🔥🌶️ Another massive thanks to my patreons for their $upport & further 🔗 to all the other fun things from this episode including Jonboys Spotify playlist featuring his fantasy guests are in the show notes below. 🍸💃🏻🪩🕺 Bob SHOW LINKS:  EP. 47 SPOTIFY PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0UoTzAkl9dtSbygZhAZx04 JONBOY ROCK INSTA: https://www.instagram.com/jonboyrock LOJETZ (CHECK LINKTREE FOR MUSIC): https://www.instagram.com/lojetz GUEST#1 SAMPLE USED BY LIL NAS X: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C4dXjf3gs46/?hl=en GUEST#1 SPEECH @ ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xpyxh1Q0ZI GUEST#3 @ GLASTONBURY: https://youtu.be/t3egepVwFuk?si=pV_vU5dcOLU5ZodR GUEST#3 NPR TINY DESK CONCERT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSUgrhmtXIw GUEST#4 ASTEROID TRACKER: https://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/tools/sbdb_lookup.html#/?sstr=fraser&view=VOPDA LWICFD!

On this episode we have a 🔥🔥🔥 drummer called Ben Ellingworth. I first met Ben when he was working in the Billy Hydes music equipment rental place in Sydney and drumming in this sik band called mm9 who played a lot at a venue I worked at called the Annandale and then one time they came on a national tour as the main support act for this other band I was tour managing called Karnivool (this tour is definitely in my top 5 tours of my whole career.) 15 years after that tour and Ben is now playing drums with Gflip touring this mega tour with G pretty much since covid ended and G blew up all over the world - and its still going! Along the way Ben also worked with many other bands eg Illy and Peking Duk and is also working with an emerging artist called Tilly Fenton, but what I love about this tho is way back on that 'vool tour and when I saw Ben at the Billy Hyde's he would always be super friendly but always tell me that he was gonna be playing massive stages one day and now he is and I am so stoked for him b/c he is the nicest dude, he absolutely loves drums and drumming so he is doing what he has always dreamed of which I find really inspiring. Plus he fecking rips on the drums and is just awesome to watch - links in the shownotes. Gflip just released a new album called "The Dream Ride" and is on tour right now - currently in the USA and Canada then over to the UK and then Australia in late feb / march 2026 - tickets are on sale now. Massive thanks to @shizafrigginhotsauce for the Friggn hot sauce and sponsoring my show. It's hotter than one of Ben's drumsticks after some hectik drum roll paradiddle drum thing and so go check them out and put it on all of the foods.🥁 🤯🔥🌶️ Another massive thanks to my patreons for their $upport and further 🔗 to all the other things from this ep including Ben's Spotify playlist featuring his fantasy guests are below. 🍸💃🏻🪩🕺 Bob SHOW LINKS: EP. 46 SPOTIFY PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5GYAIIHzluoSGqzwPjLoRe BEN'S WEBSITE / LINKS: https://www.benellingworth.com BEN DRUM CAM RIPPING ON THE DRUMS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6in6wkGG3iQ Gflip LINKTREE: https://linktr.ee/gflip GUEST#1 ALL VOCAL ALBUM: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mgIu5z-kWmA4tVUXwF-vqbnQLGh_FDB74&si=I5MyBKf8pvE4js15 GUEST#1 EXPLAINS INSIDES OF A TV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SNQtQWjX-sA MIKE PATTON SANDWICH INTERVIEW REFERENCING GUEST#3: https://youtu.be/bpbnbi4njRA?si=_Kwdd2LJhrNwCe96 GUEST#5 COOL VIDEO: https://youtu.be/u7K72X4eo_s?si=M-2rXgcdprHA-C5L GUEST#5 HECTIC VIDEO: https://youtu.be/AIIovpUQiro?si=r2CGxfZML-VCzNaI DEATH GRIPS (BENS FAVE BAND RIGHT NOW): https://www.youtube.com/@deathgrippin LWICFD!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME ETC.! Yes! Today marks the 2nd birthday of the LWICFD! Podcast and to help celebrate this very special anniversary for me (see EP.#31), I am extremely honoured to have my dear friend Peter Hughes! 🥳 I first met Peter back in 2005 (pretty much to the day this pod drops 😳!) when I got asked to do the sound and Tour Manage the band Peter was playing bass and singing beautiful harmonies in…The Mountain Goats who were blowing up in Australia and globally with songs such as "This Year", "No Children" and "Dance Music". For 20+ yrs Peter toured with the 🏔️ 🐐 and I was lucky enough to tour Aus&NZ with them on 4 occasions. Peter even came to stay with my wife and I at our house at the conclusion of the 2006/2007 tour for a week (with another rad dude who was on that tour - John Vanderslice) so we have a lot of good history and I really enjoyed catching up with him and hear his journey from growing up in California to now, especially because… …late last year, Peter "retired" from the MGs - but he didn't go and drink cocktails on the beach while enjoying retirement. Instead he jumped on a plane and came back to Australia to record a brand new solo record called "Half-Staff Blues" which comes out on 5TH SEPT so I strongly recommend you head on over to Peter's bandcamp and get a copy (link below).  Massive thanks to Shizafrigginhotsauce for the Friggin' hot sauce & sponsoring my show for another year❤️‍🔥 It's waaaaay hotter than it is outside b/c it's fecking freezing where I am right now so I might go and have a bath in it, anyway go check them out and put it on all of the foods. 🔥🌶️ Another massive thanks to my patreons for their $upport and if you're just a casual listener, thats cool too and thank you for listening 🙏🏼  Further 🔗 to all the other fun things from this episode including Peter's Spotify playlist featuring his fantasy guests are below... 🍸💃🏻🪩🕺 Bob SHOW LINKS: EP. 45 SPOTIFY PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5lAU66BkQg0Xv6BmtLjzsj PETER'S LINKTREE (links to Bandcamp / insta / podcast etc): https://linktr.ee/peterpeterhughes PETER'S NEW ALBUM ON BANDCAMP (FULL DROP SEPT 5TH): https://peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/album/half-staff-blues PETER'S FANGIO VIDEO (Directed by Davey G.

On this episode of the LWICFD! Podcast we have Tour Manager to pretty much every band that ever existed, Benn Newby  🥳 For nearly 20 years, Benn has tour managed many amazing Australian & International bands & artists. I won't name them all here because it would take 10,000 years 😅 but the list includes bands such as Karnivool, Birds of Tokyo, John Butler, Genesis Owusu, Paramore & Death Cab for Cutie to name just a tiny fraction of acts that Benn has toured with in venues from tiny clubs to massive stadiums & everything in between, travelling all around our beautiful country & the globe (including some crazy times to Russia & India, which we hear about during the chat.) Benn has also been the Artist Relations manager @ Warner Music for a few years, but his most important job out of all of this cool stuff is that of a loving husband and father - I don't know how he does it all but mad respect to Benn & his family & we have a great catch up about how he got into it & some of his adventures along the way. 💥🙌🏼 Massive thanks to @shizafrigginhotsauce for the Friggin' hot sauce & sponsoring my show. It's hotter than one of the gigs that went down in India that Benn was on and so go check them out and put it on all of the foods. 🤯🔥🌶️ Further 🔗 to all the other fun things from this episode including Benn's Spotify playlist featuring his fantasy guests are in the show notes below. 🍸💃🏻🪩🕺 Bob SHOW LINKS: EP. 44 SPOTIFY PLAYLIST: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/32vyEqppkLJ1rR5KTS72SE BENN'S INSTA: https://www.instagram.com/bennjames SPINNING TOP MUSIC: https://spinningtopmusic.com/ "ONE" BY RODRIGO Y GABRIELLA: https://youtu.be/uyyb_CYWtCc?si=nRPgK4d63IZFsnpf GUEST#1 MUSIC VIDEO: https://youtu.be/q3zqJs7JUCQ?si=AOY4pYjzy8vUm82P MOMENTUM GENERATION DOCUMENTARY: https://youtu.be/7FHoY_EZSAA?si=tX2DGG6q8ubf-CaX GUEST#3 BAND'S DOCUMENTARY: https://youtu.be/TD_MKcoCMkk?si=7Ug9UTVLzF-oFzuF GUEST#4 MUSIC VIDEO: https://youtu.be/FHSfyypZtag?si=SIwn-j2R5JpBz8ND LWICFD!
