There is a new Garcia interview, audio only, posted on YouTube.
It's from just before sound check from the Portland show.
Garcia talks tours, the middle east, Mexico, the Canadian legal system and surprisingly, lots about his gear. Throughout the interview he's tuning the Wolf explaining that he's trying to see if there is is any love left between him and that guitar.
He talks about not trusting Alembic with any of his guitars, Doug Irwin replacing the decal with an inlay and how he digs the stability of the Travis Beam, he talks about going through teo sets of strings per show, and even about his dislike of high output PUs as they screw with the harmonics, which makes me think why I've always wondered why the Dragon II's on my PRS gave my CU 22 lousy harmonics compared to my 67 Sg junior.
The interviewers are a couple of grad students from Reed Collage, a storied private school in Portland, it's a step inside what tour was like in the 70s,
Peace,
James
