A podcast that explores the world through the eyes of entertainers, musicians, singer/songwriters, recording engineers, managers, venue owners and people who make a living on stage and behind the scenes. We recount funny stories, gigs from hell, influences, and occasionally share a secret or two.

Lee Totten has been performing and in several incarnations as solo acoustic act as well as with a full band. He’s one of the original contributors to the Tales of the Road Warriors section of Li’l Hank’s Guide for Songwriters, my award winning website during the nineties which is how we first met. We bonded online, but I later met Lee in person when he  flew out to California - - -  I was hosting the Acoustic Soup Open Mic and Showcase at the Book Grinders in Van Nuys. where he popped in and performed some of his originals songs. 

It’s been a long time since then, so in this conversation, we get caught up with a lot of things Lee’s been up to over the years and of course, he shares some of his very entertaining stories. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry, you’ll be a blubbering emotional wreck… okay, well, I may have exaggerated that last thing…

Anyway… Lee Totten is headlining a show for the first time in a long time … on May 25th, 7PM at Waypoint Spirits in Bloomfield, CT. His friends LSD (Lead Singer's Disease) and albinoTree will be opening the show.

They’re donating all ticket sales to Fidelco Guide Dog Foundation. Great Waypoint Spirits cocktails, beer from Swing Oil Beer Company and a custom cocktail created by The Barrel Age.

Lee and I had a pretty long conversation …. Regarding long interviews - I could use your input… would  you prefer I broke hour shows into a Part 1 and 2? Or do you prefer to get the whole conversation at once and pause it yourself?  I think there are pros and cons to doing it either way, so I’d appreciate it if you comment on the Lee Totten Show Notes Page or visit the Tales of the Road Warriors Facebook group...
