Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

KARL DENSON
Q: What is your touring day like and how has learning and practice influenced how you approach live shows?
Touring is traveling and balancing practice; I've been focusing on reducing travel time to dedicate a couple of hours to practice before shows, which helps me stay sharp and creatively fresh.
KARL DENSON
Q: How did your experience with The Dead influence your career and jam-band journey?
Hearing The Dead in the late 90s during touring with Rat Dog opened my eyes to the storytelling aspect of live musicianship and helped me appreciate the front-row perspective on improvisation and collaboration within a band setting.
KARL DENSON
Q: What was your first concert ever that you saw?
My first concert was Cool and the Gang in a Santa Ana gymnasium in the early 70s; they didn't play funk but instead performed avant-garde jazz, which oddly shaped my early musical tastes.
DANIEL BATEMAN OF FROG
Q: What was the moment you realized you didn't have to work a traditional job anymore?
It happened after a period of juggling two jobs and a major shift in focus toward Frog, aided by a realization that dedication to the project could be monetized and sustained over time.
DANIEL BATEMAN OF FROG
Q: You have a tour coming up, right?
Yes, we're touring the Northeast and Midwest, with plans to perform a broad catalog for several hours and aim for a memorable live show.
