Gapers Block is proud to present the first of an ongoing series of recorded interviews by Dave Elfving, GB staff member and proprietor of greasyskillet.org. Here, he interviews Tim Tuten, co-owner of The Hideout, about his unique way of introducing performers.

The audio interview is here (2.46MB), rendered as a .MOV file. You will need Quicktime to listen to this. To save on our bandwith, it is recommended you save the file to your computer. Windows users can right click the link and select "Save Target As" and Mac users can save it directly. If you really must stream it, then oh, go ahead. We still love you, really we do.
