From the archives: Victor Quijada and Marie-Eve Albert interviewed

Howdy!

I was recently going through some misfiled stuff of mine at Archive.org, and came across this interview I did with Victor Quijada from Rubberbandance Group back in 2009. It hasn’t gotten much love since then as it was not in the Zeke’s Gallery collection at Archive.org among other reasons. I gave it a listen and still get a big kick out of it. Thought you might like to hear it as well.

I also rediscovered this gem, also from 2009. where I spoke with Marie-Eve Albert from Imprudanses (and if you like it, they are performing on February 3 at Café Campus – go see them. They are awesome!)

Two things occurred to me while going through the misfiled stuff, a) sometime this year I am going to upload my 1,000 podcast and b) I have some work to do in order to clean things up.
