Delayed Reactions Can Be Deeper Reactions

Cris Cohen: With the live shows, you get an immediate reaction from people. But with your videos and your writing, there is a delay between when you release it and when you get a reaction from someone. Did that take some getting used to?

Stanton Moore of Galactic: When I first started writing articles and then wrote my first book, I was playing so many gigs that I didn't get that feedback right away. But once I started to get that feedback after years and years and years, you start to realize it's just a different type of connection. The instant connection playing gigs and having people moving in time to what you're doing, that's one thing. But even though the feedback and the reaction -- when people come to you about something that you demonstrated or explained or wrote -- even though that's a delayed reaction, it's also on a deeper level, because you know how much time they had to spend with it. Both of those types of feedback are cool. They're just different.
