Welcome to Road Case Stories: Unfiltered Tales from the Touring Trenches
The lights. The sound. The chaos. The crew.
Life on the road isn't just about the artists on stage—it’s about the legendary crew members who make the magic happen, night after night, in cities all over the world. Welcome to Road Case Stories, a brand-new original video series from FerroCity.

Joe Scacciaferro
The creator of FerroCity and the mastermind behind the series. With a massive broadcast career and decades of experience crossing over multiple industries, Joe built this platform to bring these untold backstage stories to the forefront (even if he jokingly claims his main job is just hanging out and doing nothing).

The primary host and your guide through the trenches. J3 has truly lived the road life, from spending a decade touring with The Struts to playing guitar and singing for Tommy Lee. Because he has been in the thick of it, he is the perfect guy to pull the absolute best war stories out of our industry guests.
