Wow! Darren and Steven reach the proverbial holy grail for podcasters, 100 episodes! They wax enthusiastically about making it this far and then welcome two drummers who have played with Dave, nearly 30 years apart, Ron Wikso and Francis Valentino.
Ron was in the touring band for the 1994-1995 Your Filthy Little Mouth tour, and Francis was part of Dave's initial dates on KISS' End Of Rhe Road Tour, very nearly played Las Vegas for the cancelled farewell concerts and can be heard on the Van Halen re-records done in 2022. Both have great stories, dispel some rumors and have answers to a few mysteries.
You can find Ron at RonWikso.com and Francis on Instagram @francisvalentino
