It was like moss and it was growing in the rain gutter. And then the dude was like, maybe he built a cabin or decided to sell the moldy loaf, but he didn't call it the moldy loaf, but it was a dodge piece of shit you know in it and I don't even know how that thing, like I said in the movie- I say it in the movie was like crazy that we jumped in that and just toured the country a bunch of times.
Picture this: a beat-up Dodge van, a band on the edge, and a guitarist battling his demons. In this episode of The Z-Man Podcast, Todd Zalkins sits down with Brian Coakley, the guitarist of the Cadillac Tramps. They dive into the gritty and sometimes humorous tales of addiction, recovery, and the making of the Tramps' movie 'Life on the Edge'.
Brian doesn't hold back as he recounts his struggles with addiction and his path to sobriety, offering a raw and real look at life on the road. From the camaraderie that kept the band going to the bittersweet memories of their drummer Gabby, this conversation is packed with stories that are both heart-wrenching and heartwarming. Whether you're looking for inspiration on your own recovery journey or just love a good rock 'n' roll story, this episode is a must-listen.
Todd and Brian's banter will make you laugh, reflect, and maybe even shed a tear.
