Show Notes

Keyboardist Rob Preuss talks about joining Spoons at age 15 in grade 11, carrying a permission slip from his Mom to get into club gigs, recording with Danny Lanois, enjoying Whoppers at Burger King with Boy George, being approached backstage by Sting/Steve Winwood/Nile Rodgers, driving his parents’ station wagon to audition for Honeymoon Suite and 3 days later opening for Journey in Kansas City, recording the theme for Lethal Weapon in LA, losing a Juno with Spoons but winning a Juno with Honeymoon Suite, his honest assessment of Paul Stanley’s run as the Phantom (of the Opera, duh!), performing at Massey Hall NOT as a rockstar but as part of the Cats production, his interactions with David Furnish/Rod Stewart/Carol Pope/Hugh Grant, personally giving Duran Duran’s Nick Rhodes props for using the Roland Jupiter 4 synthesizer, and getting a ‘Piano Coach’ film credit for teaching Mr Robot’s Ramy Malek how to play Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody!
