Rock Talk With Mitch Lafon presents legendary guitarist, Frank Marino (recorded December 2019).

Frank discusses his new Live At The Agora Theatre, VIP and LIP (less important person) concert ticket packages, his upcoming US tour, how he approaches live shows & set lists, fake crowd swell, upcoming new music, and more. 

"If you're going to create a VIP package, by definition you're creating a LIP package (a less important person package). What you're doing is creating two classes of supporter. The ones that can afford to be your supporter and the ones that can't. I won't do that... Who the hell do we think we are? We're not saving the world here. We're supported by these fans. If not for them, there wouldn't be a show."

"I don't like to call myself an artist. I think it's an over-used word. I'm a musician."

"When you begin to look at music as a brand, you change the motivation as to why you do it. I never ever did a record with that in mind."
