The Captain Meets Satchel (Steel Panther)

[@RockHeiland]

Finally someone who knows how to handle satchel. There are so many awkward videos out there with him, because the interviewer can't handle his character 😂

[@512banana1]

satchel likes to have awkward moments lol

[@hairychris444]

Lee's had a lot of experience with weird on-camera conversations (Danish Pete ffs) so he knows what to do. Other interviewers? Probably less so.

The other good Satchel interview is Rebecca Dirks.

Russ is a phenomenal guitar player and doesn't really get the credit he deserves(actually non of the guys in the band do just by the pure nature of they band type the are in) but they are great at what they do and are having a blast doing it

[@michaelfoley906]

So true. I was blown away by his playing when I saw them live, possibly more than anyone else I've ever seen - and his solo where he plays the bass drum while playing guitar - really talented.

[@216Numbskull]

@Jamey Richardson, Trust me Russ is credited in the guitar world. He appreciates kudos from fans opinions, but being acknowledged and respected by the other great guitarists. Those are the ones who hold the most weight & importance to Russ. Knowing the answer to the question he's had in his head since picking up the Axe as a kid. Realizing he made it!

[@stugeh]

I like how satchel just forgets that he's supposed to be playing a character when George Lynch comes up😁

Whats great about Satchel is you can tell he’s actually a really intelligent person behind the character, he just loves to be funny. He knows his gear and he knows guitar.

[@gp937]

I know that Satchel is a persona that he puts on but you can't deny this is what we all want to imagine that a rock guitar god is like. He is captivating and can see he is in control . You can see his mind working twice as fast even if it's rubbish most of the time hehehehe. He is a greatly underated player.
