On episode #48 of The Struggle is Real Buffalo Music Podcast, Ryan talks with Miggie and Pam Swarts from Hooked on Casiophonics. We talk about the history of HoC, moshing without touching, the difficulty of looping equipment and both guests’ solo projects.

Ryan also talks about Buffalo Infringement Festival’s Festivus fundraiser, the re-launch of WNYMusic.com, addresses complaints about the All WNY Music Awards, and reviews a slate of past and upcoming area concerts.
