For those not on the podcast...

Hi David ... and everybody at Music Business Radio.
I really like your podcast. It's quite informative and I appreciate the variety of viewpoints on the music biz side of things.
Listening to this interview w/ Jed Hilly I was thinking how interesting it is to hear the biography side of the people behind the machine... if you know what I mean. His trajectory from sweaty rock'n'roll clubber to americana mover and shaker is a great story in and of itself. It takes so many people to birth a music!
Also... I really got inspired by his interest in Greening the music industry.
Great food for thought.
Thanks!
