I have been looking forward to having Max on the podcast for a while. Max is a super talented drummer who plays for both Lobby Boxer and Sawed Off, two completely different bands playing completely different styles of music. He's also toured all over as a FOH Engineer for bands like New Found Glory, and has been running sound at several different venues in St. Louis for years. We talked for an hour and a half about touring, paving your path in a music career, hardcore music and it's recent surge, and so much more. Thank you Max!
