MSRcast 317: Welcome Aboard: A Beginner’s Guide to 70000 Tons of Metal

Joining Cary the Metal Geek and Sean the Metal Pigeon are Justin Kramer from The Metal Exchange Podcast—a multiple-time 70000 Tons of Metal sailor—and Rusty Conner from Lone Star Metal. We break down the bands we’re most excited to see live, what first-timers should realistically expect, and how to survive (and thrive) on your first voyage.

From rookie questions to veteran tips, Justin helps answer everything beginners need to know before stepping on board, making this episode the perfect starting point whether you’re already booked or just metal-curious about life at sea.

If you’ve ever dreamed of setting sail on the world’s loudest cruise, this episode is your all-access pass. All aboard, raise the horns, and prepare for riffs, waves, and pure metal chaos 🤘⚓
