Welcome to the October episode of 53:5 - The Official Stryper Podcast! This show is going to (in my best Boston accent) "Wicked Awesome, Hey!" Not only do we get Stryper news and of course Stryper music, we will be spending some quality time with guitarist Joel Hoekstra! Joel has played with Night Ranger and Cher (among others) and is currently in Whitesnake, The Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Revolution Saints, Hoekstra/Gibbs, and has his own solo career with Joel Hoekstra's 13! Stryper fans know him as the guitarist in Iconic (with Michael Sweet) and on Michael's ONE SIDED WAR! You are going to love Joel's stories about his first interaction with Michael and Oz Fox. Thank you for your support, and enjoy! matmancomics@yahoo.com www.stryper.com  www.joelhoekstra.com www.originalmatman.weebly.com
