EPISODE SYNOPSIS:
This week on Complete Control we have an eclectic crew of brilliant people stop by.
First, Michael Kurtz of Record Store Day comes through to talk up the annual worldwide celebration of local music shops on 4/21, show some killer limited memorabilia, and explain how Lars Ulrich is "Jesus-like."
Then, Joe is joined by Toby and Rusty of H2O. They work like a family, spreading their sound and drug and alcohol-free beliefs to kids at shows and schools, and Joe is happy to get to hang with them.
Finally, Sebastian "C-Bazz" Fort takes the studio like a superhero and shares his story as a comedian from Louisiana that is taking LA by storm. From a shared love of music to his family's concerns with him leaving the country, it's a seriously funny visit from a funny man on the move.
