Talk about the difference between "Tech" interviews and "Political" interviews. You seem prepared to engage and hold your interview subjects accountable in a way that doesn't happen in the political world. Why? Is it fear of losing access? Something else?

It's rare to see a political interviewer even "push back." The norm seems to be a question like "Tell me what you think about topic X." After that, "tell my more about it" or "Tell me about something else."

Almost never do you hear "Wait a minute, you said "y" - I'm going to challenge you on that. In public."

Guess we can't get what we want.

Hi Dan, two questions

1) You say that "intimate, singer-songwriter stuff is not the way you "feel" music" anymore" Can you elaborate?

2) Which house concert series serves the best lasagna in your opinion?

Thanks for #1 - as to #2, we're in Vermont now but still doing it at http://www.billsvillehouseconcerts.com/

Dan covered Elliot Smith's "Waltz #2" at our house. Listen and enjoy: https://soundcloud.com/billsvillehouseconcerts/waltz-2-elliott-smith-cover
