Our guest tonight Chris Loring is a motorcycle enthusiast and has been in rock bands forever. He has a vast and varied musical and professional portfolio including a full length concept album of original music about being in a cover band. (We're Going Nowhere) He refuses to use solid-state amplifiers, is an animal lover, buffalo wing connoisseur, accomplished sailor, a beard maintenance expert, and prefers his red meat medium rare. The topic of the night is the ongoing trial of Karen Read who is accused of killing her boyfriend Boston Police officer John O'Keefe in January of 2022. Alternate evidence and conflicting stories suggest a cover-up. Our guest has even written a song about the case! This one is great from beginning to end. We get into the case, Chris's love for travel, love for freedom, and we're shown that you do not need to be fearful of visiting new places and meeting new people. We are humbled for his wisdom and experience. The song! : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POoup_3uf8U Free Karen Read FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/969616750908298/ HRL ahardrocklife@gmail.com dirtyrockrecords@usa.com pelleklive212@proton.me
