Todd McTavish and Ryan Rogers - Judge Jackson - Non-Stop Rock Talk with Tyson Briden

Tonight's Episode

Todd McTavish and Ryan Rogers of Los Angeles, California band Judge Jackson to discuss the bands latest release 'Chapter One 1995 - 2000' which features the song "Knuicklehead" which Todd and Ryan give the meaning behind the song.

This album pays homage to late guitarist Lee Jackson who passed away in 2016.

Todd explains the misconception on being in Shania Twain's back-up band. Possibly, Wikipedia isn't always accurate?

Todd and Ryan also discuss the impact that Lee Jackson brought to the sound of Judge Jackson. They elude to the fact that Lee was cremated with one of his guitars. That tells you how playing guitar encompassed his entire being. He was truly a road dog. The road was where he was meant to be. Ryan terms his as "The Tony Iommi of Southern Rock" - meaning he was the ultimate riff-master.

Todd as a former Canadian, admits that he still bleeds blue and white. Meaning that he is a supporter of hockey's Toronto Maple Leafs. Don Cherry is brought up and how Hockey Night in Canada is not the same since he was let go and the fact he should have never been let go. So again we get into sports which is fully embraced on the show.

Ryan also fills us in on how much of a 'Metalhead' he is. The Duran Duran his sister was listening to just wasn't cutting it for him. So like so many of us he moved over to the 'Darkside'.

Todd surprises Tyson within the conversation as he eludes to working with the legendary Mick Mars of Motley Crue on his solo material and other things. Todd is definitely on 'Team Mick' when the break-up is mentioned.

This is truly a great interview that features blood, sweat and laughter. Tyson had a blast talking to Todd and Ryan.
