Locked In The Closet: Ep 10 with Anthony Stevenson

Anthony has been running CATIP (Come and Take It Productions) for over a decade.  Chris and Ryan met Anthony at Dirty Dog Bar here in Austin TX when they began the Podcast in Nov 2014.  CAITP has been supporting the Podcast since 2015 to present.  Anthony has grown his business over the years but has also helped grow the local metal/rock scene as well.

Since Anthony is one of the bigger players in our community, he has been affected in major way.  From booking, promoting and hosting live shows at his venue and at other locations, he has had to make a lot of adjustments.  For example, some shows are booking out as far as Summer 2021.  Needless to say, scheduling is a nightmare.  

His band, Critical Assembly, recently released a new EP in March, 2020.  They also went down to Mexico for Heaven and Hell Fest with 40k+ people there.  This was when things were beginning to really ramp up in the US but, down in Mexico, things were a little more laid back.  He recounts his time there.
