We go heavy on the bass, light on the treble when Johnny tells us about being pelted with sandwiches when opening for Iron Maiden in Italy; why his band nearly broke up while simultaneously touring Europe with Metallica and Guns N' Roses; and what a smokin’ barbecue the late, great Pantera drummer Vinnie Paul threw at his Texas compound.

On this TMEP Show Classic, Rhett Miller talks about his “Most Messed Up” Spinal Tap Moments like the time Kobe Bryant said "Cool" after he sang the National Anthem at a Lakers game; and the time Kobe DIDN'T say "Cool" when Rhett sang the anthem stoned; and how awkward it was when Rhett stopped by a recording studio and Kanye West was in the vocal booth "taking a nap with a lady.”
