## Resource

The boys are in the Burlington PAC green room with the legendary solo artist and front-man of Styx, Lawrence Gowan. CJ dresses up as the guest in his 'You're A Strange Animal' music video and the fellas discuss the importance of videos at the time. We get into what it's like having been the frontman of Styx for 27 years, playing the Superbowl, our mom being his biggest fan, going to see him live and not knowing he was the frontman of Styx, his kid's metalcore band, being jacked at 69, and more. Follow the guest and the pod: Lawrence Gowan - @gowan CJ Bishop - @cjbishopcomedy Dave Bishop - @realdavebishop @nobutseriouslythoughpod @styxtheband
