BARRY COURTER: Lisa, amazingly Riverbend is here, and there is a lot to talk about, but I have to share a funny story first. My close personal friend (that’s a phrase friends of TJ the DJ will know) called the other day to tell me he would have the honor of introducing Juice Newton and Exile on Saturday on the Unum Stage. He’ll also be signing copies of his book, “The Jett Age — Flying With Tommy Jett.”
Anyway, first thing he says to me is: “I saw you the other day, and you’ve put on a lot of hair.” Hey now, that’s funny.
LISA DENTON: Ha, that’s real funny. I thought it looked like you’d spent some quality time with the Flowbee lately. I figured it was part of your prep work for camping out at Bonnaroo, except the timing was off. Bonnaroo’s not until next weekend, and by then you’ll need to tame the mane again.
Sometimes when we’re at our desks, it’s like sitting across from Einstein. I guess using a Flowbee to cut your own hair makes you a “shear” genius. It’s not a bad problem to have. When my girlfriends ask about you, they say, “How’s Barry? How’s his hair?” So you’ve got that going for you.
BARRY: It’s about all I have going for me, so yeah.
