For those of you who thought maybe my moniker of
"music geek" was somewhat unwarranted, this episode should either put your
mind at ease, or put you off the show altogether. But hey, it's my show, so expect me to be self indulgent,
exploratory, and rebellious once in a while by appealing to something other
than the greatest common denominator when it comes to music and interview
topics, since that's really the whole point of this podcast.
I even conducted this week' interview without research or
extensive notes (which is unheard of for me) -- just played their
tracks a few times and decided to improvise. To that end, this show
continues my experimentation with different
interview styles and locations. This week,
as you can tell, we are in public, at a sidewalk tavern located on a
busy
intersection in downtown Indianapolis. As such, the urban ambience (and
wind) may be a bit loud at times, but
hopefully will not detract from your listening enjoyment. It also makes
the editing a little more
obvious and choppy-sounding. Hopefully you still aren't
expecting professional-quality production values from me after all
these weeks.
On the backside of things, the podcast continues to grow
in popularity (by about 50-100 listeners per week). This is mostly due to bands promoting their appearance on the
show, obviously, and has little to do with anything I've done. However,
it's been gratifying to see that,
contrary to my expectations for a local music podcast, we actually have
listeners in Alberta, Ontario, and Germany, which is extremely cool.
Since I didn't get a chance to say it in this weeks' show, a special
thank you to those of you who subscribe (or at least regularly
download) this show, and a hearty welcome to those of you who are here
for the first time. Check out our website (which I also failed to plug in the show) and our MySpace page for additional goodies and tidbits.
Jeff has a fantastic Jazz album called Club Bordeaux available at CDBaby
Brian plays in a number of bands including Siochain (despite my butchering of the pronunciation in the podcast, it's actually
SHEE'-a-kwan) and Ashworth,
among others
Today's promo is from Krimson News, a great website and podcast done by Jeff Duke.
CA3 (and a different special guest each week) will appear on Tuesday nights throughout the month of may at the Upper Room in Broadripple.
