Confessions of a Fanboy

I’ve been on about it all week and then when it was over it was better than I could have hoped for. Glen Phillips did in fact make his appearance on the B-Sides Concept Album program and he was a really great guest. He was really generous with his time and patient with my Fanboy gushing. Not only that, he was really interesting and engaging as he talked about his albums and experiences.

One of the things I took away from the interview is just how in love with music he is. That might seem obvious, but I don’t get the same sense from every artist I listen to. He seems in love with music and making music. He pulls back the curtains a bit on what it’s like out there and it isn’t all pretty, yet you never get the sense that he would want to be doing anything else with his life. The love and passion for it shines right through.

It was really an amazing experience and one I’ll remember forever. In the meantime, you should all check out his new EP. You can get the disc or the download from his web site.
