This week on The Guitar Nerds Podcast, Joe and Matty have just got back from the world's greatest and most weird music festival, ArcTanGent, in Bristol, UK.


Matt helped Boss to sponsor the festival, and had a cool Boss stage and demo area where he got to catch up with some of the most incredible guitar players and effects pedal dancers at the festival, including Clt Drp, Aiming For Enrike, and Rabea from Toska.


Meanwhile, Joe drank a litre of vodka laced red wine in under 5 minutes after someone suggested it couldn't be done, then performed a single note in Tom Peters' incredible tribute to the life of Podcast friend, Dan Wild-Beesley, with around 20 guitarists, all with their amps on full volume.


This episode is a journey through the best bits of gear and most jaw dropping bands that you simply have to check out from the Jagstang of No Violet, to the seafoam green sparkle Talman of Yvette Young.


Make sure you listen to the end....because something big will happen.
