Always love your writing. May I ask how you got those ambient guitar sounds in the composition? Happy new Year. - Alan

Hi. The recording is a 2007 mix. The ambient are eBow layers over Rhodes piano bass. The chugger guitar is a dobro tenor.

Thanks for wondering!

Wondering if one of the mishaps occurred at Schubas in Chicago. At the end of the set, I think you immediately exited the side door off the stage out onto the street like a superhero. Which, of course, you are. ☺️

Happy New Year! ☮️

Also, the interview took place during a roof leak within a dry area demarcated by caution tape.

The surrounding chaos made me look rational.

It resulted in a letter of conditional acceptance. The challenge was intriguing.
