Q&A with Béla Fleck
Spotlight
1. If you could have any one superpower, what would it be?
The power to take pain away from the people I love.
2. What would you use your three wishes on?
Good health for my family and friends, good health for our precious and poorly treated planet, and - one dark chocolate bar - but not in that order.
3. If you weren’t a musician, what do you think you’d be doing?
I suspect I’d be a teacher or a science fiction writer.
4. What is your must-have travel item when you’re on tour?
Got to have the right skin lotion, Precipitation, by Origin. And a great set of noise-canceling headphones, Boze. Not an endorsement. Wait - I need my banjo too!!!
5. What do you want Greenville to know about you?
That I only want Greenville to know what I want them to know about me.
