Peter Woods from Romeo Void Interview - "I would have DONE IT DIFFERENTLY TODAY…"

Author: Craig Garber April 23, 2023 Duration: 2:02:04

On this Peter Woods interview: The last minute inclusion of Never Say Never and how this charting single almost didn't get made… Why Romeo Void broke up, Peter's top 3 musical experiences… going to law school, becoming a lawyer and then changing everything by moving to Japan. The upside and downside to living in Japan… WORST gig ever (you'd be shocked who they opened for), opening for U2 and having a blast with The Edge… being open to changing your course, and much more. Fun and relaxed convo!

 Peter is a founding member and the guitar player of the iconic 80's alternative rock / new wave band, Romeo Void, from San Francisco. The band had two hit songs: Never Say Never, which reached #27 on the Mainstream Rock charts. It's the kind of song that evokes a very specific early 80's alternative rock time period. Their other hit was A Girl in Trouble (is a Temporary Thing), which was a Top 40 pop single in 1984. Both songs were staples on MTV video rotation, and Never Say Never has been in many soundtracks. The band has just released Live From Mabuhay Gardens (in San Francisco), their first official live LP, recorded in November 1980.

There's a particular kind of conversation that happens when a guitarist picks up an instrument, but the real stories often come when they put it down. Everyone Loves Guitar, hosted by Craig Garber, lives in that space. It’s less a formal interview and more like pulling up a chair in a backstage lounge or a quiet corner of a studio. Garber’s guests-celebrity players, revered musicians, and behind-the-scenes industry figures-open up in ways that go far beyond gear and technique. You’ll hear the unvarnished backstories, the pivotal moments that defined their careers, and the personal philosophies that drive them. This podcast digs into the history of the music itself and the people who make it, revealing the life lessons and personal development that come from a lifetime dedicated to art. Each episode feels like a deep, meandering chat with a fascinating friend who just happens to have an incredible tale about life on the road, the creative process, or the sheer joy of a perfect riff. It’s for anyone who believes the guitar is more than wood and strings; it’s a conduit for human experience. Tune in for honest talk about the music, the struggles, and the triumphs that resonate long after the last note fades.
