C Gilchrist/ Grxymkjbn scrapbook

In the mid-90s, The Pods enjoyed modest success, playing their surf/comedy/rootsrock everywhere from the Cincinnati Art Museum to Bogart's to the P&G Pavillion (opening for such luminaries as Joan Jett, Jimmy Messina and NRBQ) with regular airplay on WAIF, WOXY and WNKU. This band was the latest incarnation of a band started over a decade before as "Doc and the Pods".

I recorded three albums for/with The Pods (l to r: Matt Manninan, Paul Dickerson, Bryce Rhude, Marq Friedlander, and C Gilchrist): Egosystem, Podophiles and Pods '95. This is the photo used for the cover of Podophiles.

I finally found an instrument the equal of my late, lamented Les Paul... This is Pods live at Top Cats, near UC. That's Paul Dickerson behind me.

Playing live on the air with The Pods at WAIF radio studio B.
