It's here! Ep. 3 of S3 is out now! And if it's Friday, then It's Friday Night at the Hideout! Patti Quatro Ericson and I begin one of many intimate conversations about Dave Leone's Hideout, which opened as a teen club in 1964. Patti said, "It was like h***y teens in a sweatbox!" We end the episode with frequent players at the Hideout, The Underdogs, and their cover of "Friday Night at the Hideout" written by Dave Leone. You're not going to want to miss this one! Are you listening...? 💋🎧🔥

Not only Jeff Beck, but Leslie West too! Leslie loved Patti’s guitar playing so much that he gifted her his beloved guitar. And Dennis “Machine Gun” Thompson of the MC5 said, “The Quatro girls were the first all-female band that played instruments well, and forerunners for many bands to follow. One kick ass band!” You can’t beat that! Rock ‘n’ roll History matters. 💖

Thank you for sharing! 🤩

Happy Valentine's Day to our lovers of rock 'n' roll! Season Three is here and the first episode is out now! 🔥 What better way to celebrate this day of romance than by sharing the secrets of the Pleasure Seekers. Straight out of Detroit, they're one of the earliest all-female rock bands to be signed and recorded on a U.S. label in 1965, and played with such homeboys as the MC5. As Official MC5 Dennis Machinegun Thompson wrote, "The Quatro girls were the first all-female band that played instruments well, and forerunners for many bands to follow. One kick-ass band!"

Patti Quatro Ericson and I are excited for you to join us on this wild ride all season long! So, let's get started! Available on all podcast platforms and:
