listened to a good chunk of japan on the way into work today.
man caravan, your voice is weeeiiiiirrrrrrd.

good stuff, love your description of the venues.

rj, have your guy listen to the 07/31/99 2001 again.
i almost crashed my car when he said it was really short cause he felt they wanted to get to the bowie.
it's of course one of the greats.  maybe he was joking.

Brad is sometimes an unreliable witness.

Meant to ask what kind of mic you use?  Sounds better than alot of other podcasts.

I can answer because I have the same one (partially based on RJs recommendation.)  For the price, they really can't be beat and sound better than a lot of USB mics at way higher price points.  Has been great for home recording too and a lot easier than setting up my xlr mic (which is a Rode that I love but....)  Anyway, this is it: https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Yeti-USB-Microphone-Silver/dp/B002VA464S

That said, my voice is only weird when I use this mic.  I sound like Mel Torme irl.....

ETA: You can get certain colors or find a sale when they are only $99....

Or find me a deal on the Yeti Pro and I'll sell you my Yeti.

This one was fun. We spoke to writer Steven Hyden about his new book, Twilight Of The Gods. It's about classic rock. But it also talks about Phish.
Dig it.

Also, the book is amazing and it comes out next week.

Listened yesterday. Great interview. I want to get the whole unedited phish chapter.
One critique I have to offer.  when y'all were discussing "rumors", he mentioned there were albums he couldn't listen to. I would liked to have hear what they were. I think it was a missed opportunity for an interesting follow up question.

[rowjimmy]

I think we'll get the full chapter at some point.

Ordered the book just now.

Oh duh. That makes sense.... especially since your name is not actually RJ.

That's cool for him though!

They hang a lot since the beginning of Osiris. It's pretty rad.
