The Boat Co. Talk Show with Danny Thompson
01.19.17
The Boathouse Collective, a creative space that mixes up arts, community, culture and music, as well as culinary excellence continues the Boat Co Talk Show (BCTS) series with guest, punk rock drummer, and entrepreneur Danny Thompson.
The BCTS is a monthly exploration of the diverse, creative and entrepreneurial talent in Orange County. The show’s goal is to inspire future leaders with stories of positivity, perseverance, and hard work. It’s an hour that will entertain, uplift, challenge convention and provoke thought.
With a focus on the personal journey, host Derek Sabori of The Underswell takes a living-room-chat approach to get the stories that matter, and to draw out the insights that can help professionals and students of all ages as they craft their own career, and personal life, trajectories.
On Monday, January 23, Derek will sit with Danny, drummer for the punk band Face to Face and co-founder of the coolest music school in Orange County, the Music Factory for a candid and personal deep dive discussion on the journey that it’s taken to arrive there.
The Boat Co Talk Show offers a relaxed venue, with drinks, beverages and Q&A opportunities. Doors open at 5 p.m., entry is $15 and includes a Boathouse “Band Bowl” dinner available 5-6:30 p.m. Talk begins at 7p.m., sharp.
Tickets and more details are available at boathousecollective.com. The event is free to students with a current and valid ID.
