In an effort to get more personal and show some of the thought processes that have led us to running this blog, I’ve decided to pen a note to start each week. For the From The Editor column I’ll discuss the week ahead and whatever’s on my mind. Later today, we’ll be running the first interview with a group of talented schoolkids we’ve got high hopes for – McLovins.
The McLovins took the internet by storm in December when a clip of the trio covering the incredibly difficult Phish song You Enjoy Myself became a viral video smash. Two members of McLovins are currently in high school while the guitar player is still in middle school. In order to secure the interview Ryan and I needed to go through drummer Jake Huffman’s mom Carol and the support, love and concern Carol and the other McLovin parents showed throughout the process had me thinking of the support, love and concern my parents showed me as I explored my passion for music.
I got into Phish and the Grateful Dead back in the mid ’90s when less than 5% of Americans knew what the internet was. After I purchased Lawn Boy and realized Phish was the band for me I started to seek out live recordings. Without the internet, it wasn’t as easy as firing up bt.etree.org and picking from 200 shows to download. As a 16 year old in Hazlet, New Jersey – a town where hardly anyone had heard of Phish – I had limited options for finding Phish tapes and one of them was a store called Prime Cuts in Rockville Center on Long Island.
