After experiencing technical and scheduling difficulties, Mike Nicolai and I finally connected on the last day of February. We talked about his time in Minneapolis, Austin, TX and elsewhere. Mike was recently on tour with Arlo Guthrie and friends on an Amtrak tour to raise money for musicians in New Orleans who lost their gear in the disaster following hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
The first thing that happens to you if you’re from here and you move to Texas is you get terrified because people start coming up to you and being really nice. And being really like, “How ya doin’? What’s up?” And talking to you and actually displaying emotion which is something that if you grew up here your whole life you’re not really accustomed to.
