Chuck Savage is a popular Musician, Comic, Actor, Writer and Producer, currently residing in Houston Texas. I can’t remember what made me think of Chuck after so many years but I’m glad I did. I worked with Chuck in the past and I thought he might be a good choice to conduct HThH interview segments. I mentioned Chuck Savage to my partner Wayne Granzin and after about a minute and a half of deliberation I had Chuck on the phone. I scheduled a meeting with Chuck and a few days later we shot the first HThH interview with Matt Harlan.
The Matt Harlan interview went well despite the fact that when Matt and Chuck showed up – Wayne and I, in keeping with our fly by the seat of our pants approach, had no idea where to shoot the interview. After a short brainstorming session we decided on a small burger joint called The Burger Shack in Northwest Houston. I made the necessary arrangements with Burger Shack management and away we went.
A little bit about Chuck Savage:
Chuck’s career has been an interesting affair. I first met Chuck in 1985 when he fronted a great Houston based band called The Missiles. After that he proceeded to play bass with Jessie Dayton, performing over 1,000 shows across North America and Europe. Chuck Savage is featured on Mitch Hedberg’s CD “Strategic Grille Locations” released on Comedy Central Records. Chuck played Bass and MC’d roughly 50 shows with Mitch Hedberg throughout America and Canada. Chuck played bass on two SUPERSUCKERS tours in 1997 and again in 2003, Chuck also played on their CD “Must Have Been Live” released in 2002.
We are very happy to have Chuck Savage on the Honky Tonk Happy Hour team and I personally look forward to working with him again.
