After all, Bonnie Grice of WLIU / Peconic Public Broadcast Radio still managed to have a phone interview with Laurie Anderson at the Eclectic Cafe show today. She even played an unheard-before, quite pure (studio?) version of 'Lost Art of Conversation' before the interview.
The conversation floated through topics like trees (esp. willow trees), her special performance prepared for LongHouse Reserve Summer Gala called "The Boat I Had As a Child", a book called 'Capitalist Realism' ("it is easier for people to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of capitalism"), adding new verses to 'Only an Expert' and so on.
