Chris Messer (Showoff)

We are joined by Chris Messer, singer of Chicago pop punk band
Showoff and owner of Dodgeball Records. Chris goes into detail
about Showoff's early days and how they became the first band to
record with mega producer John Feldmann. We discuss the sophomore
effort recorded with Mark Trombino and the crazy reasons that
that album never saw the light of day. Chris candidly tells us
about the disgraceful behaviour of a certain band that were huge
in the 90s. We talk about the years in other bands including The
Get Go, and why he wasn't keen on joining Fall Out Boy when he
had the chance. 


Check out Showoff's music and Dodgeball Records bands Amuse
and Decent Criminal.
