In the Spotlight - Season 3 - Ep. 16 with George Pajon Jr. of Black Eyed Peas and Cairo Knife Fight - A Powered By Rock Podcast Short

Author: Powered By Rock November 11, 2022 Duration: 14:00

Hey there, it’s Isaac from Powered By Rock here to bring George Pajon Jr. from the Black Eyed Peas and Cairo Knife Fight into the spotlight for a few minutes, and make him sweat with some on-the-spot questions.

Welcome, George. Are you ready to be put in the spotlight?

1 - You have traveled the world and played probably every size stage imaginable. What was the single coolest show you have played, and what group were you playing with? Do you have a “worst show” experience?

2 - You have worked with some of the biggest names in the music industry over the past 35 or so years. Is there anyone you have NOT worked with that you are really wanting to do something with them?

3 - You have one of the most insane pedal board rigs and amp setups I have ever seen. How much money and time would you say you have invested into this system to allow you to play the loops and switch between amps and all the other crazy shit that you play live?

4 - Another thing that you have is an absolutely sweet guitar lineup. Let’s say your studio started on fire while you were in it, and because you only have two hands, you can only carry two guitars out of the fire, which two are you taking with you?

5 - If you could go back in time and change one thing about your musical career, what would you have done differently?

I want to thank the man, the myth, the legend, George Pajon for stepping In the Spotlight and answering these hot seat questions.

Until we see you again for the next episode,

Rock on!
