EP007: Mike Bishop AKA The Berserker Blothar (GWAR)

Welcome back to The High Way with Kyle Shutt! This week I talk with GWAR's Blothar the Berserker, Mike Bishop. From the early days of touring as the original Beefcake the Mighty to returning as their latest epic frontman, we go over this man's wild musical journey. We stop along the way to talk about his time with Kepone as well as a little known band called The Tips, featuring The Sword's original drummer, Trivett Wingo. Hang until the end of the episode to hear The Tips' "Mean Streak", a never before released slab of punk fury. Be sure not to miss an episode by subscribing to our channel!

Well well well, here we are. My name is Kyle Shutt, the wild man, ol’ lightning fingers, the busiest man in showbiz! If you’ve made it this far then you may know me from my tenure with The Sword, my heavy metal Pink Floyd laser tribute Doom Side of the Moon, or my punk ‘n’ roll solo efforts. However you know me, you must know that I love a good time, a couple cold beers, and playing the hell out of a (Reverend) guitar. Check out my podcast, The High Way with Kyle Shutt to hear all my enlightening conversations with entertainment's finest.
