On this episode of The Adventures of Pipeman, we sit down with the daring band, Silly Goose, to discuss their incredible journey to the Danny Wimmer Festival lineup. Listen in as we cover their bold decision to crash the festival and play in the parking lot, the potential danger that could have ensued, and how their risk-taking paid off with an invitation to play the next day. We also explore their unique trailer tour and the reactions from friends and family who weren't always supportive of their decisions. It's been an amazing ride, and we're all celebrating with them.
We also chat about the viral TikTok video that got everyone talking about Silly Goose. Discover how they've been using the internet to get their name out there, from playing in Waffle House and Cracker Barrel to Buckee's. We discuss the idea of becoming the Waffle House band and how they're surviving through merchandise sales. Plus, we touch on the hilarious coincidence of geese invading the interview area before the band crashed the Danny Wimmer Festival!
Finally, we dive into some of the creative ideas Silly Goose has come up with for their live performances - from dressing up in costumes to running out on stage as animals. We share stories from their experience playing at Rockville in the Daytona Speedway, including the painful lesson of not applying sunscreen before going on stage. Comparing this to the Us Festival from 1983, we recall the epic moment when David Lee Roth forgot the lyrics to a song. Listen in for our tips on handling hecklers and learn about the exciting possibilities of Silly Goose being credited for their creative contributions to the Danny Wimmer Festival.
