Merry Monday, loves.

How was your weekend? Mine was nice and relatively quiet – just what I needed, in other words.

On Friday I interviewed Ben from the Yonder Mountain String Band for this week's Scene section. We had such a great interview. He's definitely a talker and very funny. The only problem was, the band's publicist cut us off after only about 20 minutes, and I hadn't even asked half my questions yet! That's saying something, since most band interviews I do only take about 10-15 minutes, since that's usually all I'm given anyway (I interviewed a former "Idol" winner – who was not particularly chatty – in only 7 minutes). Interviewing musicians is like a box of chocolates – you never know what you're gonna get.
