What happens when you combine 90s rock, wild costumes, nostalgia, and a group of musicians who refuse to just stand on stage and play songs? You get Gen X.

In this episode of The Minnesota Music Note, we sit down with members of Gen X, Brian, Ryan, and Kitty, to talk about the stories, personalities, and pure chaos behind one of Minnesota's most entertaining tribute bands. From rediscovering music after years away from the stage to costume changes, open jams, Prince, 90s rock, and the evolution of their full-production show, this conversation goes way beyond the music.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALKED ABOUT:
🎸 How Gen X evolved from a simple 90s tribute concept into a full-blown live production.
👗 Why costumes and becoming different characters are such a huge part of their show.
🎶 The songs and artists that changed their relationship with music, from Poison and Nirvana to Gin Blossoms and Prince.
👕 The hilarious story behind their legendary T-Shirt Tour and how it turned into a band tradition.
🌆 Why Minneapolis continues to be such an important hub for musicians, venues, and live music in the Midwest.
🤘 How different musical backgrounds within the band help them create a nostalgic experience that jumps from Metallica to Garth Brooks, Britney Spears, hip-hop, and beyond.

If you love 90s music, live shows, or the stories behind the people making Minnesota's music scene what it is, you don't want to miss this one.
