On this episode of Aftershocks Tremors, Matt sits down with VEGAS ROCK REVOLUTION promoter/DOOMED & STONED co-host and RIPPLE MUSIC A&R/Curator John Gist. John discusses the challenges he faces as a promoter in the modern day underground heavy rock and metal scene and shares some of his experiences and concerns on how difficult it is to thrive, let alone survive in today's music business. He discuss his foray into the music business and the impetus in starting VRR a little short of a decade ago. The guys talk about Gist's well renowned podcast DOOMED & STONED and the importance of promoting new rock and metal music in today's day and age of music nostalgia. Gist also talk about his work with RIPPLE MUSIC and their 'Turned To Stone' split-series and much more.
