Guest: Tyson Leslie, Recording Artist In this episode, we sit down with multi-instruementalist/recording artist Tyson Leslie to trace his musical journey from its earliest beginnings to finding his creative home with the recording act Vixen.

The Early Years: Where Music Began

Tyson takes us back to his youth, painting a vivid picture of the moment music became more than just background noise in his life. Growing up in a household where melodies drifted through the halls, he discovered that music wasn't just something to listen to—it was something that could save you, define you, and give voice to feelings words alone couldn't capture. He shares the story of his first instrument, the countless hours spent in his bedroom trying to recreate the sounds that moved him, and the teachers and mentors who saw something in him before he could see it in himself.

The Industry Rollercoaster

But the path from passion to profession is rarely smooth. Tyson opens up about the harsh realities of breaking into the music industry—the rejection letters, the promising opportunities that dissolved into nothing, the financial struggles, and the moments when quitting seemed like the only rational option. He talks candidly about the toll the ups and downs took on his mental health and relationships, the industry gatekeepers who didn't understand his vision, and the feeling of being constantly on the outside looking in. Yet through every setback, something kept pulling him back to the music. We explore what kept the flame alive during the darkest periods and how those struggles ultimately shaped the artist he would become.

Finding Home with Vixen

The turning point in Tyson's story comes when he connected with Vixen. He describes the moment he knew he'd found his people—artists who understood his creative language, who pushed him to be better while accepting who he already was. Tyson reveals how joining Vixen wasn't just a career move but a homecoming, a place where his music could finally breathe and reach the audience it deserved.

He discusses the collaborative process within Vixen, how the collective approach has influenced his songwriting and performance, and what it means to be part of something larger than yourself while maintaining your individual artistic identity.

Looking Forward

As we wrap up, Tyson reflects on the lessons learned from his journey and offers advice for artists still fighting their way through. His story is a testament to persistence, authenticity, and the transformative power of finding where you truly belong.

In this episode, Brent Barker Music, a versatile guitarist, songwriter, and vocalist best known as a founding member and songwriter for recording artists Sweet F.A., the rock band that formed in Speedway, Indiana will be our guest. He continues to work as a session musician, songwriter, and guitar instructor based in Phoenix, Arizona. Brent talks with host Joseph Augustine as the what the band's name means, the lasting friendship he's kept with his Sweet F.A. bandmates, new music he's writing with original Sweet FA lead vocalist Steve DeLong and his current West Coast based band, Hard & Heavy.

This week, we're honored to welcome a true Hollywood legend to Gen X Marks The Spot Podcast, a guest who has brought some of our most beloved action sequences to life—three-time Taurus World Stunt Award winner and the real Duke Boy himself, Corey Eubanks. At just 18 years old, Corey became the youngest stuntman in Hollywood, and his very first job was one for the history books: jumping the General Lee on The Dukes of Hazzard. That iconic orange Dodge Charger, soaring through the air every Friday night on CBS wasn't just television magic—it was Corey behind the wheel, the real Duke Boy who made those death-defying jumps look effortless. He launched a career that would span decades and define an era of action entertainment.

But if you're expecting stories of celebration and fanfare, think again. Corey pulls back the curtain on what it was really like working as a stunt performer in the 1980s. There were no high fives, no congratulations, no pats on the back for a job well done. You executed the stunt, dusted yourself off, and moved on to the next one. It was a world where you learned to roll with the punches—sometimes literally—and professionalism meant showing up, delivering, and keeping the production moving forward. From those early days as the real Duke Boy on The Dukes of Hazzard, Corey went on to become one of the industry's most sought-after stunt drivers, bringing his expertise to modern blockbusters including #fastandfurious franchise and the #transformers films. His work has thrilled audiences across generations, bridging the practical stunt work of television's golden age with today's high-octane cinema. His contributions to the craft have been recognized with three Taurus World Stunt Awards—the industry's highest honor for stunt performers. Corey also shares stories about his famous father, #bobeubanks—the legendary television host of #newlywedgame and the visionary promoter who discovered @thebeatles

and brought them to the United States for their first concert, forever changing the landscape of American music and culture. So as you tune in, remember: we owe a debt of gratitude to Corey Eubanks for bringing our childhoods to life.

In the 11th Episode of Gen X Marks The Spot Podcast, the legendary Carmine Appice promotes his upcoming performance with Six Gun Sally, a powerhouse Southern rock band from Southwestern Pennsylvania known for their high-energy live shows and gritty, guitar-driven sound. The event will be at The Lamp Theatre on November 29th, 2025 at 8:00 p.m. in Irwin, Pennsylvania. This event also features special guest Greg T. Walker, founding bassist of the legendary band Blackfoot, adding even more classic Southern rock pedigree to the night.

During the conversation with host Joe Augustine, Carmine reflects on his storied career. He shares where his love for Southern rock began—rooted in the gritty influence of his band Cactus—and also revisits his early breakthroughs with Vanilla Fudge and his hit-making era drumming for Rod Stewart, two chapters that helped define his signature style and establish him as a rock heavyweight.

He gives listeners a preview of the new Cactus album, Influences & Friends, a project featuring an all-star cast of guest artists and showcasing the band’s gritty blues-rock legacy with Appice at the helm.

Appice also speaks candidly about the modern music landscape, expressing concern over the growing impact of AI and the uphill battle many musicians face in today’s industry. He reflects on some of his proudest accomplishments, including his best-selling drum book Realistic Rock and the wide-reaching influence he’s had on drummers such as John Bonham.

He also addresses the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, noting that it doesn’t matter to him personally whether he gets inducted—but he firmly believes that Vanilla Fudge absolutely deserves a place in the Hall, especially considering the countless major bands they’ve influenced throughout the years.

You cannot miss this interview or his appearance on November 29th, 2025 at The Lamp Theatre,in Irwin, Pennsylvania.

# Episode Description: Norm Voss - Something to Achieve In.

**A Thanksgiving Special**

As we gather to give thanks this week, there couldn't be a more perfect time to sit down with someone who embodies the true spirit of gratitude and giving. This week on Gen X Marks the Spot, we welcome the incredibly talented and genuinely humble Norm Voss, bass player for The Bret Michaels Band.

Norm shares his unique perspective on what it means to be a musician in one of rock's most iconic bands. Rather than seeing himself as a star, Norm approaches his position as if he's a fan himself—which is exactly why you'll find him mingling with fans before and after every show. For Norm, it's not about the spotlight; it's about the shared experience and connection that music creates.

In this heartfelt conversation, Norm opens up about his passion for giving back to those who need it most. From bringing joy to the elderly, to offering hope to those in recovery, to providing comfort to people battling serious health issues and bringing music to those incarcerated —Norm dedicates his life to helping others find peace and happiness when they need it most. His mission is simple but profound: to be present for people when others may not be.

Norm doesn't see himself as a rockstar—he sees himself as a musician with a gift, and he believes that gift is meant to be shared and given back through music. It's this perspective that drives everything he does, both on and off the stage.

We also dive deep into Norm's philosophy on music itself. He believes that keeping the spirit of rock alive means focusing on the music—not the ego, not the fame, but the pure power of the sound and the message. It's a refreshing reminder of what rock and roll has always been about.

Join us for an inspiring episode with one of the most genuine, humble souls in the music industry. Norm Voss proves that true rock stars shine brightest when they lift others up.

**Topics Discussed:**

- The fan-first mentality and connecting with audiences

- Ministry work with the elderly, those in recovery, facing health challenges and bringing music to those incarcerated.

- Why music should always come before the performer

- Staying grounded and humble in the rock and roll world

- The future of rock and keeping the genre alive
