The guest this week is The Lawrence Arms' Neil Hennessy. Neil is a man who doesn't do interviews, so thanks go out to him
So what can you expect in Liam and Neils' chat? Well, Neil takes us on a journey of how he discovered punk and its meaning to him. Liam enquires about Neil’s early life in music, in particular, his time working with "Tim" McIlrath before Tim and Neil both went onto bigger things respectively,
Neil explains why 1973 was the defining year for all music while also showing love to Asian Man Records' Mike Park and Red Scare's Toby Jeg.
We, of course, talk The Lawrence Arms as well as the punk supergroup Falcon.
Liam asks Neil what's the difference between Fat Wreck and Epitaph, having been signed to them both and Neil ends the story with, the now annual, Fat Mike story.
This interview took place at the Rebellion Festival, and you can get tickets for next year’s festival at www.rebellionfestivals.com
