Getting Better Acquainted

In GBA #8 (part 1) we get better acquainted with Vaughan. He talks about being South African, playing the bagpipes in fetish clubs, wearing masks, restructuring organisations, heavy metal and "being black". And that doesn't even cover half of what he talks about!

These episodes are more loosely edited than some to better represent the experience of getting acquainted with Vaughan.

GBA #8 (part 2) comes out on Friday.

At the end of part 2 Vaughan plugs:

In GBA #3 we get better acquainted withmy father (for the first time). He tells the story of his service in the army during World War II. Sometimes a conversation is the closest you can get to a time machine. This conversation was recorded in a location that technically belongs to know country. What it lacks in sound quality it hopefully makes up in atmosphere.
