On Episode #32 of The Struggle is Real, we talk with Nine Layers Deep guitarist and Mohawk Place bouncer Ballsy (aka Alaysa Dale). We talk about things you can do to piss off your bouncer, the plethora of items she has been offered to look the other way when granting access to Mohawk Place, what exactly Doom Sludge Stoner Metal is and if it includes axes. Chandler reviews this years’ annual BurtFest, the guys talk previous and upcoming concerts, and they play music from Dilettante, Nine Layers Deep and Chelseigh.
