The Louisville music scene is nothing if not incestuous, with writers and reviewers who are performers covering other performers who are writers and bloggers. Case in point – this podcast, featuring an interview with LMN cover story writer Kevin Gibson of the band Uncommon Houseflies, conducted by Phil Medley of the band Adventure, which Gibson just wrote up for the April issue of LMN. If it weren’t the music business, we’d all be sued or arrested or brought upon ethics charges. Instead, it’s business as usual.
