Two Chairs No Waiting

Welcome to the Two Chairs No Waiting – Andy Griffith Show Fan Podcast!  I’m glad to have you join me for part 2 of my interview with Rodney Dillard.

In this episode discuss the influence that The Dillards had on artists such as The Eagles, The Byrds, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Dan Fogelberg, Linda Ronstadt, Elton John, Ricky Skaggs, and several other well known artist.

We discuss the way The Dillards were able to “push the envelop” with the music they played and how they were able to combine different styles of music into their music.

I believe you’ll hear things that many fans of The Andy Griffith Show haven’t heard about our Darling boys and hopefully you’ll understand and be even more thankful for the artist who are The Dillards on a different level.

Two Chairs No Waiting

Rodney Dillard, the guitar playing Darling boy, joins us to talk about The Dillards, the Darling boys and much more. In part one we speak about how The Dillards got their start in the music business. In future episodes Rodney will talk about being on The Andy Griffith Show and many other topics.

Because of my association with The Andy Griffith Show, I have seen The Dillards perform many times and I’ve heard them take and answer many questions from audiences.  I heard things in this interview I’d never heard before and it was a great pleasure being able to dive into the career of this influential  bluegrass band.

How influential you might ask.  The Dillards were inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame on October 1, 2009 and have directly or indirectly influenced artists such as The Eagles, The Byrds, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Dan Fogelberg, Linda Ronstadt, Elton John, Ricky Skaggs, and several other well known artist.

Two Chairs No Waiting

Two Chairs No Waiting made it through the first year of podcast episodes.  What started as a way to publish interviews with cast members that were on Mayberry.com as “Real Audio” files and my desire to turn them into MP3 files so folks could listen has turned in to a weekly Internet radio show about Mayberry.  Two Chairs first year was 52 episodes with just over 11 and a half hours of Mayberry content.

I never dreamed that more would be left to say after the first few episodes.

Thank you to everyone that listens and to all those that have already been a part of the show. I also want to thank my wonderful wife for allowing me to produce a show a week and for hosting the first episode of our second season.

Two Chairs No Waiting

This episode marks the end of the first year of Two Chairs No Waiting and what better way to finish my first year than to complete our interview with Neal Brower.

In part three of the interview with Neal Brower as our guest, we move the discussion toward his book “Mayberry 101: Behind the Scenes of a TV Classic.”  That book is labled Volume 1 so Neal answers the question about, where’s volume two?  He also tells us how he came to pen Mayberry 101 in the first place.

We also hear about his Professor Bower’s Lecture series he does each year at Mayberry Days in Mt. Airy, NC.  Neal shares some special memories and many things you may never have heard.

Thank you again to Neal Brower for taking the time to visit with us all here at Two Chairs No Waiting.
