1. What are you listening to right now?
Wasted Life

2. What song makes you sad?
Lou Reed - The Bed

3. What is the most annoying song in the world?
Big Green Tractor… seriously the song is about romancing a girl by taking her for a ride on his tractor… and it plays at least twice a day at work unless I forcibly change the dial

4. Your all time favorite band?
yikes. The Screamers are always up there. Two Gallants and The Zounds are pretty high as well. Velvet Undergound holds a special place in my heart. Billy Bragg and Leonard Cohen . Nick Cave in any iteration.

5. Your newly discovered band is?
lately I'm getting into Ramblin Jack Elliott

6. Best female voice?
hmm Ani Difranco, Neko Case, Odetta, Anita Lane, cat power

7. Best male voice?
Leonard Cohen, Leadbelly, the guys from Two Gallants

70s punk; lately folk and blues

The epoxies

10. What do you listen to when you want to calm down?
belle and sebastian

11. Last gig/concert you went to?
jeffrey lewis opened for that chick from The moldy peaches who did all the music for Juno. She was a bit much, but Jeffrey Lewis I would marry in a second. *hopes he's reading and waves*

12. Band you find yourself listening to the most right now?
lately I'm not hardcore into anything in specific

13. Most hated band?
whoever sings that fucking tractor song

14. Song that makes you think?
probably The decemberists and B&S since they're a bunch of literary twats. Also, crass makes me reconsider everything I believe.

15. Band that you think the world should love as much as you do?
Two Gallants and Kid Dakota; they're pretty much two of the only bands still touring I really love so it'd be awesome if they got famous enough to come visit dc on a regular basis.

16. Coolest music video?
Probably not what you mean, but Jeff Lewis and The Books both have visual accompaniments at their shows and both are very fucking cool. Jeff Lewis does his own comic book story things while The Books raid thrift stores, etc and splice together weird films. Both can be found on the you tube I'm sure.

17. Music video with the most babe watch?
I don't know I don't watch standard music videos.

18. What do you play/would you play in the bedroom to spice things up?
So into You as covered by shudder to think;

also if any attractive man wants to be the Janis Joplin to my Leonard Cohen(it's my fantasy, I get to receive), we can rent a room at the Chelsea Hotel and play the song and you know how it goes

19. Can you play a musical instrument?
nope

20. Ever been in a mosh pit?
um kind of. Been on the outskirts pushing people back in when they get to close to the edge, not much of a mosher though.

idk I didn't work today

26. What do you think of Classical music?
usually don't go out of my way to listen, but I will sometimes put it on at work

27. What do you think of Country music?
I like the non-lame kind that doesn't involve taking my girlfriend for a ride on my tractor. Hoyt Axton, that kind of thing. i suppose I lean towards folk/bluegrass/cowpunk rather than country country.

28. What do you think of Death metal?
eh, I can take it or leave it.

something about Nick Cave's receding hair line and matching handlebar mustache is bizarrely appealing in ways it wouldn't be on anyone else

um well at the jeff lewis show these weird high schooler kids tried to befriend me.

34. Funny concert moment?
moldy peaches' girl actually puts on a good show if only I didn't not particularly care for her music. so anyway she's wickedly funny and at one point stopped singing and all the little high schoolers kept on singing and it was comical comical comical.

35. Sad concert moment?
eh well Jeff Lewis show again I guess. a bunch of love songs when you're recently broken up with a boyfriend is not good for the emotional well being. especially when you start texting him and he doesn't answer because he's fucking some other girl.

merm… The evens; are they together any more? and do they transcend local?

banjo

only at work

no

does anyone actually follow the charts? I assumed they just all listened to the same radio stations which resulted in the charts.

41. Have you meet any famous musicians?
Once I rubbed against both Ian Mackaye and Henry Rollins. I also shook hands with the guy from CKY at a concert once and I thought he was just doing the hand touch thing, but apparently he wanted a shake and he told me I had a weak handshake and should work on it. r.i.p. the downtown

Lou Reed - Perfect Day

52. Do you wear band etc T-shirts?
sometimes

53. What do you think of people who do?
I once fell in love with Tom from physics due to his awesome t-shirt collection. I was too scared to talk to him so I'd try to coordinate wearing my Minor Threat shirt with his wearing of his Minor Threat shirt so I could be like "hey, you like Minor Threat too? I had no idea" and then we'd make out in the distance but it never worked out for me and anyway his myspace was full of love for his girlfriend. hah. This was a very long time ago.
