Show Notes

Sometimes when Phil plays, something happens in the room that isn't stagecraft. Phil's leading explanation is that it's the mead. Tonight he tests it — sober, alone, one variable at a time, like the chemist he almost was. He cannot make it happen. And then, with the lute already down, it happens anyway. A workshop session that gets away from him.
