About this episode

Lyle Divinsky played New York subways for five years to pay his bills, then within a year was headlining Red Rocks. Backstage, a 72 year old musical hero told him he was still touring because he needed the money.

He and Mike talk about leaving a famous band and blending service, passion and prosperity.
