Episode description

Enjoy the second hour of our interview with Geoff Harkness, who wrote the book ""Rain King: The Life and Music of Adam Duritz and Counting Crows".

https://www.amazon.com/Rain-King-Music-Duritz-Counting/dp/B0C5241RM4

In this hour, we talk about when the band's critics have been wrong (and admit when they may have been right).  We also talk about how relating to the Crows may be different at age 45 (when compared to 25), the band's move to more abstract lyrics, and whether Adam really never cheated on a girl...

Geoff also discusses his experience early this summer, when he found out that the band already knew of the book, and Adam already had his copy!

Last, we review Geoff's favorite CC concert experience:  the August 27-28, 2001 shows at House of Blues in New Orleans.
