Transcription
A: Once you did move into the former music school building, did you think it was really cool, or weird, or what did you think about living in a former school?
J: Well it was pretty fun, it was a pretty unique house, it still is, and it was kind of exciting to have all that space. The uniqueness of the house was fun. And the interesting part, when people would just walk in the house and I would be in my bed, and somebody would come in looking for the School of Music, and I would have to explain, “No, no this is not a music school anymore, we now live here, it’s a house.” We both had a pretty surprised look on our face.
A: So someone walked straight through the front door?
J: Many times.
