After our show in Minneapolis, we stopped into The Current (KCMP) to record a live session with Danny Sigelman. Check out the whole thing here:

If you don't know The Current, you should. It's part of Minnesota Public Radio, an amazing, listener-supported free-form eclectic radio station that's doing great things for independent music. Around Minneapolis you can tune in at 89.3; you can listen online from anywhere else at http://minnesota.publicradio.org/radio/services/the_current/.
Back in another life when I sat behind a desk for many hours a week, I listened every day. I was even a member -- I've got my special edition Current vinyl to prove it.
Of course there are a bunch of other stations out there doing great things for music (WOXY, WXPN, XMU just to name a few). So, much thanks to them for doing the Good Work -- and for supporting us along the way.

p.s. In the vein of World's Best Radio, I just finished the John Peel book (Margrave of the Marshes). A most high recommendation if you're looking for something for yourself or someone near and dear.
