If we're including singles, Something For Kate

Gerling - Newwave Machine

3. What's in your CD player right now?

Gerling - Badblood!!!

4. What is your favourite instrument?

guitar, violin when used properly

The Kills (playing last on a double headline with Hot Hot Heat). Sooo many people left before they even came on, then more during their set. Relying on supposed sexual tension between your 2 members in lieu to cover for the sameyness of your songs does not a good show make

Well, Neko Case metioned in a radio interview recently that both she and the New Pornos are hoping to tour here late this/early next year, so that's as good a bill as any for me

16. how many concerts have you been to?

50 or so, excluding festivals

17. What was your first concert?

the free Australia Day concerts I was dragged along to by my parents during the country music festival (I saw Kasey Chambers playing with her family band when she was a teenager)
or, Billy Joel in about '94

way too hard to answer

Alas, work is crazy right now and they more or less put a freeze on everyone's vacation days for the next 2 months. Pretty typical publishing industry cycle...I probably won't be able to do as much out-of-town gigging as I have in the past for several months. Blah.

1. Of all the bands & artists in your collection, which one do you own the most cds by?

If you include side projects & solo stuff by people in bands ( I do ) it'd either be KISS or The Wildhearts. The Replacements, Supersuckers, & Cheap Trick would be right up there, too.

2. What was the last song you listened to?

A cover of "Rhinestone Cowboy" by Soul Asylum at work last nite.

3. What's in your CD player right now?

Nothing at the moment...listening to ESPN Radio ( waiting for "The Dan Patrick Show" to come on).

4. What is your favourite instrument?

Electric Gee-tar.

5. Who's your favourite local band?

Dunno if I have a current favorite. Used to be Ultimate Fakebook, but they broke up a couple years ago.

6. What was the last concert you attended?

Damone/Valient Thorr about a month ago.

7. What was the greatest concert you've ever been to?

Impossible to pick just 1...I could probably come up with a Top 5 for 5 different reasons.

8. What's the worst band you've ever seen in concert?

Non-local? Probably Bob Mould...so. fucking. boring.

9. What band do you love musically but hate the members of?

KISS. Aside from maybe Paul, they're pretty unlikable.

10. What is the most musically involved you have ever been?

I guess my 6 years at Broadcast Data Systems, when I was actually working with music ( most of it crap, though ) 5 days a week.

11. What show are you looking forward to?

Hopefully seeing TSAR live at some point this year.

12. What is your favourite band shirt?

Probably my faded Motorhead shirt. Although I like the Damone shirt that looks like the Kiwanis logo that I got recently a lot.

13. What musician would you like to hang out with for a day?

Jeff Whalen from TSAR. I have a feeling we have similar taste.

14. What musician would you like to be in love with you for a day?

Uh....no one.

15. What bands would you love to see tour together?

TSAR, Damone, & Cheap Trick would be a killer lineup.

16. how many concerts have you been to?

Only about 75, actually.

17. What was your first concert?

Hall & Oates ( with OXO opening...remember "Whirly Girl?" . Yeah...didn't think so ) in Tulsa OK. We're talkin' like, '83 here.

18. What was the greatest decade for music?

Believe it or not, I'm gonna say the 80's.

19. What is your favourite movie soundtrack?

Dunno...not much of a soundtrack guy.

Really fucking bored.
