Ep. 132 - Gary Holt [Pt. 1]: Prince is the Mozart of Popular Music

Gary Holt (Exodus / Slayer) joins Benny, Siobhán, and Cory for a crazy episode filled with everything from Prince to Slayer. We get a look into Gary's backstory and how he amazingly joined the famous band Exodus after only six months of guitar playing, having learned his first licks and chords from Metallica's Kirk Hammett. We dive into the early days of Exodus, putting on crazy shows and building their own stage, as well getting a nod from Prince and playing his Guitar! Gary walks us through his favorite artists (and least), and the challenges he's faced like overcoming addiction. All this and more, don't miss out... tune in and get 2020'd!
