Phil Maq Gets Interviewed (It Includes an Eggheads Reference!) on Barker & Broski’s “Making It Small in Music!!!

Making it Small in Music

Several months ago, I got together with Michael Snyder-Barker and Chris Broski–two guys that perform together as the duo, Barker & Broski. (Michael also performs solo and as other performing entities.)

They also do a podcast called, “Making It Small in Music!” It’s a show to focus on musicians and others who are adjacent to the music business, a somewhat amusing platform to pass on info to those in similar situations.

Now, I understand that I easily fit according to the title–not by weight class, but I hesitated to do the show. I’m actually a fairly private person and I’m comfortable asking the questions–not answering the questions! 

Well, after some thought, I decided to allow Barker & Broski to have at it with me.

They were very professional and it was a pleasant time!

They were even very patient when I rambled on for awhile, which seemed to happen frequently.

I agreed to do it, because I felt that if my words could help someone else making it small, then it was worth doing!

Somewhere in the interview, I brought up a Beatles sound alike band called, The Eggheads. They’re a band that is etched in my memory, yet I can barely find a mention of them.

As luck would have it, the concersation motivated me to do a search and I found not 1, but 2 clips of The Eggheads!

This was like hitting a mother lode for me!

Regardless, if you listen to the intderview, you will hear a couple of quirky things that affected how I turned out!

This is the promo blurb I wrote for the episode:

This month Mike and Chris talk with Phil Maq, host of “Theme Attic,” a radio show on Wednesdays from 12PM-4PM ET. It can be heard at WHFR, 89.3 FM in the Dearborn-Metro Detroit area, or streamed in the rest of the world https://www.whfr.fm/streamer/. We learn about Phil’s lifelong love of music, radio, and songs—both appreciating others as well as making his own. We also ponder other musical conundrums: How long should songs be?, Are there correct chord progressions?, Are drummers actually musicians? Those are just a few of the fun loving stories you’ll hear on this episode!
