I always tell people that if the Dave from Years Ago saw me Today, he would hate me, because I go to bed early, I get up early, I get a lot of stuff done, I don't go out anymore, I just, you know, I live a nice, quiet life with my wife on a basically a smallest four acre estate in Texas, with our six dogs and my mother-in-law, and I just leave a very I you know, it's, it's.
Imagine sitting in a room filled with laughter, tears, and rock 'n' roll vibes. That's exactly what you'll get in this episode of 'Recovery Rocks', where hosts Lisa Smith and Tawny Lara invite Tawny's dad, Dave Starr, to share his compelling story. Recorded live in New York City, this episode is a rollercoaster of emotions as Dave, a former heavy metal musician, opens up about his path from addiction to sobriety.
He reflects on his days in the underground metal scene and how untreated depression and alcohol abuse led him to some dark places, including a harrowing moment involving a gun and a repo man. But it's not all doom and gloom. Dave's tale is also one of redemption and joy. He talks about the sheer delight of making music sober and how being clean has not only saved his life but also enhanced his performance.
His candid conversation with Tawny reveals the deep bond they share and underscores the power of family support in recovery. This episode isn't just for metalheads or those in recovery; it's for anyone who believes in second chances and the transformative power of sobriety. Tune in for a heartfelt, humorous, and inspiring discussion that will leave you feeling hopeful and uplifted.
