#131 / 90s Guitar Bands - Ocean Colour Scene

This week on episode 131 of the podcast, we’re joined by a true 90s survivor!

A man who’s Sat on top of a moving tour bus in Sweden with Liam Gallagher wearing nothing but a Union Jack…

Turned down the chance to join Oasis at their peak…

Played Live 8 with The Who…

And somehow lived to write a book about it!

From the chaos of Britpop to backstage madness at Knebworth… from John Peel sessions to Paul Weller’s band… from record label disasters to making one of the defining albums of the 90s completely on their own terms, this is the unfiltered story of a musician who saw it all!

It’s funny. It’s chaotic. It’s brutally honest.

And yes… Leonard Cohen really did tell him to f*** off.

This is Episode 131 with Damon Minchella, buckle up!

Welcome to The Stupid And Contagious podcast, a podcast focused on bringing you interviews with the bands that defined a generation!

That generation grew up in the 90s with the Grebo bands (Senseless Things, PWEI, Neds Atomic Dustbin, Mega City Four, The Wonderstuff and many more) on the UK side of the pond and quickly joined by the grunge bands (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and many more) on the US side of the pond.

We are not limiting ourselves to these genres though, we will chart the guitar bands from all genres throughout the decade that was the 1990s.

If you are into 1990s guitar music or just a music lover in general then this is the podcast for you!
