8/17/24 @ Mondegreen w/ Seamus Gallivan

Send us Fan MailHi everybody and welcome to today’s episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. By now, everyone recognizes just how special last summer’s Mondegreen festival was, inclusive of the music and the overall experience. Today’s guest, Seamus Gallivan had a premonition of how special the festival would be to him, and emailed me several weeks ahead of time and asked me if he could kind of reserve the festival, to come on the podcast and talk about it after it was played.No one has ever asked to reserve a show before, so I wasn’t sure how to respond. I told Seamus to hold off and see how the festival went, what his experience was, and what there would be to talk about. But in the end, Seamus was right. There was plenty to discuss. While I did release a full-festival recap soon after the festival was over, Seamus got back in touch and asked if he could tell his story about night three of Mondegreen: August 17, 2024. Certainly to both of us, it was the musical highlight of the weekend.And you can hear it in our voices during today’s conversation. Seamus came prepared with tons of notes and observations, many of which mirrored mine, demonstrating that we were on the same page. You can even hear our voices rise and we start to speak faster and faster as we approach some of the night’s musical highlights. And, believe me, there’s no shortage of highlights. Let’s join Seamus to talk about Trey’s kooky guitar tones, the San Francisco Bay Area, and much more as we discuss night 3 of the Monegreen Festival from August 17, 2024 The Woodlands in Dover, Delaware.Support the show
