To completely derail: Sage is a fucking stand up dude. I sent out a bunch of begging letter to raise goods for a raffle after my friend died in January. Of all the "major" labels we contacted, SFR sent by far the biggest package stuffed full of goodies. He took the time to acknowledge me and the grief of losing a close friend and personally wrote me a letter.

I seriously cannot say enough good things about Sage and his label. This guy is amazing. His music kicks ass but he's got insane amounts of heart too.

We ended up raising $10,000 between the fundraisers for the college fund to give my friend's son. I owe a lot of that to Sage. Much love sir.

Does "no heavy vibrations" mean no live music?

I play bass and I would be incredibly sad if my instrument at proper volume levels could kill me and live music would be gone.

I know being alive is entirely more important but damn. It's a lot to miss out on.

My best to you guys, I hope your doc gives you the all clear to go to shows again.

Do you feel pushed to ask guided questions that stay on topic as a modern journalist? As in, if the topic of the day is the economy you must stick to economic questions and not ask about the ongoing clusterfuck of NSA foreign spying revelations?

Are you retaliated against and basically silenced for off topic questions?

I've long wondered why in the last 15 years or so the press as a whole have seemed so apathetic to asking off-message questions. Do you as a reporter feel like this is the case?

Thank you for your response and taking the time to do an AmA.
