Back in 2007 I had the great pleasure of interviewing with Cap Capello live from Camp Mobile Beat in Sturbridge Mass.  Cap presented a contract seminar at our DJ Idea Sharing 12, which was part of Camp Mobile Beat. Cap was gracious enough to give me his time to podcast about the NEW Bose L1 system. A extremely hot item at the time and one of the very first real column array speaker systems. This interview is one of my all - time favorites because it really captures Cap's articulate intelligence and his quick wit. He was a true professional, great brand ambassador and good friend. Rest in Peace Cap. - Mike Fernino * DJ Idea Sharing
