Welcome to The Pipes Magazine Radio Show Episode 411! Our featured interview tonight is with Lyle Erickson. Lyle is a musician, and a pipe smoker. His band, Pitch Black Manor, recently reformed and just this month released a new album titled, “Monster Classics,” a 13-song all-Halloween themed album celebrating their shared interest in classic horror monster themes, goth rock music, and friendship. We will feature one of their songs in the music segment. At the top of the show, for our pipe parts segment, Brian will refer back to the Seven Questions for Seven Experts, and give you his answer to: “Why do some pipes smoke wetter than others?” Sit back, relax with your pipe, and enjoy The Pipes Magazine Radio Show!
