YIM YAMES!! I'm such a huge fan. I have seen you perform 18 times (17 with MMJ and 1 with MOF) and i am a Roll Call member . Thank you so much for taking the time to answer some questions. I have so many but i will try to shorten the list and you can choose the ones you want to answer if any.
How does the writing process differ from writing for MMJ and this solo record? How do you decide what song you will bring to MMJ and keep for other projects? Can you give us some info on the band you will be playing with on this new solo tour?
What is your favorite city/venue to play in? What is your favorite song to perform (Dondante is one of the most beautiful songs ever)? How come we can't get a Louisville 3 night or all albums performed each night in a row concert series?
Do you have any plans to work with Connor Oberst again? Do you have any plans or will you guys ever do another Monsters of folk album? Any other super group collaborations in the works? Who currently would you most want to work with?
Have you had any discussions with the captain and the forecastle crew to collaborate on future forecastle festivals? Have any inside info on this years festival season?
Just curious what your views on religion, spirituality and god are? I saw an interview with you in Amsterdam when the Tennessee Fire came out and you seemed to have firm views against religion and god. However, you seem to reference them a lot in your songs and not always in a negative way?
When i saw MMJ at MSG on new years some years back after your fall, I did not recognize you without the beard. Were you forced to shave it off or was it a choice and if so, why? What would it take for you to cut the beard off now?
Thanks again for the opportunity to ask some questions and thanks for taking the time to answer some. You have inspired, influenced and brought so much joy to my life. Keep doing what you are doing.
