[[" "God, I hate it when someone explains what a song means."]]

Hmmm.   I recently heard Si Kahn in concert, and, while Si has a nice voice and writes some very memorable songs, I have to say that, for me, what made this concert a standout was Si's 'banter' about the songs between bursts of playing guitar and singing.   Totally engaging, informative, and often humorous.   The concert would not have been half as good without that.
