I’m being interviewed today on Soundcheck, a WNYC music talk show, as part of a longer segment about music inspired by Moby-Dick.
The show starts at 2:00 EST on 93.9 FM. For those of you outside the NYC area, you can hear the show streamed live at http://www.wync.org by clicking the streaming link in the left sidebar.
I’ll be on closer to 2:20. Come listen!

I had a fantastic time in Mystic! Amazingly, we read all of Moby-Dick in just over twenty-four hours. Spending the night on a whale ship was also fun — even in a thunder storm. I played a set from Callmeishmael.org immediately following the reading, as part of a festival called “Sea Stories Weekend.” I met a lot of awesome people, and heard a lot of good music, stories, and poetry — all in all, a great weekend!
