Dan is one of the creative artists I respect almost more than anyone I’m in contact with. His work with his many bands is legendary and important, and brings joy to the audiences of LA, and wonderment to the many musicians who can’t understand where Dan and his peers can possibly find the time to get everything done.

This conversation touches on many subjects including Dan's creative practice, his sources of inspiration, pre-concert talk inefficiency, institutional cowardice, and many more things. I decided not to cut it up and leave it at its full-length because Dan is just too interesting to dilute. I hope you enjoy it.
