In what is sure to be our most downloaded episode ever, or at least this week, Zen and Kevin tackle the topic of Concerts. From tiny bar shows to capacity crowd arena-busters, the guys talk about their favorite shows as well as some they didn't have such a good time at. They examine what makes for a great concert experience and what can be at times a "show-killer."

Highlights from the Good, Bad and Ugly segment include:

Warrant performing drunk in Vegas

Peter Cetera chokes on stage (literally)

After Good, Bad and Ugly Zen challenges Kevin to a game of "Kiss This Guy." No, Kevin isn't coming out of the closet. The game is based on the website KissThisGuy.com and consists of guessing the correct song lyrics that correspond to popular, oft-misheard lyrics. The title is taken from the Jimi Hendrix song "Purple Haze", in which many people mistakenly hear Jimi sing "'Scuse me, while I kiss this guy" when the correct lyrics actually say, " . . . while I kiss the sky."

In the second half of the show, the guys get right into the topic of Concerts . . . what they love and what they hate. After beating the topic to death and beyond, they quickly move on to an abbreviated 3 song game and Kevin quizzes Zen on how well he knows his co-host by asking him which show out of a series of concerts would be one he did not attend.
