Manage episode 329651852 series 3115364
From growing up dancing together, to 10 Foot 5, and beyond, Brian Karoff and I talk for a long time, then at the end you get a bonus live recording of when the Stir Fry Wizards opened for Turn Back Now at the 501 in 2010.
You’ll hear all about our days at Studio 54 in the Taylor Building on North 2nd Street in Minneapolis, tap dancing at the TWA Dome in St. Louis for 50,000 people, the time when Brian, Andy, and I brought our tap shoes to Paisley Park, tap dancing on the 3rd Street Promenade while Duke and his dad Steve drummed on buckets, and the MTv pilot 10 Foot 5 shot in Los Angeles in 2001. Stories galore as we stroll down Memory Lane.
Also shout outs to Ricci Milan, Luke Kolling, Terrell Woods, Paul Wonsavage, Shoehorn, Ryan Lance, Tim Kasper, and many more.
