This is an impossible question to answer..these were off the top of my head..if it were life or death, I'd probably pick THE STOOGES- FUNHOUSE
If you could take 3 bands and have them tour together, which ones would you pick?
If it had to do with any band from any time period, I'd sit here for a month to try and pick out the perfect package. Off the top of my head, I'd like to see Bruce Spingsteen, Gaslight Anthem, & River City Extension....just cuz.
If you could put a supergroup together, who would it consist of?
Vocals-Mike Patton
Guitars- Dave Knudson - Minus the Bear
Bass - Les Claypool
Drums- Jon Theodore from Mars Volta and Him.
What is your best concert experience?
Toss up-
Spiritualized Acoustic Mainline Tour- @ The Apollo
Sunny Day Real Estate- Circa 01' @ The Birch Hill, The Rising Tide Tour.
What is your favorite venue to see a show, and why?
I have seen tons of shows at many different venues, Large Amphitheaters, small clubs, small bars..etc. I am a person that likes to see a band before they blow up, in a small intimate club setting. So without being specific, I'd say a SMALL CLUB..100 - 300 capacity... sold out or empty. the energy in the room will overtake you, and you'll leave knowing you've seen something special.
What's your favorite breakfast cereal?
Coffee and Cigarettes.
If there was a movie made about you, who would play the starring role?
Johnny Depp, John Cusak, or Val Kilmer....now lets be honest...it'd probably be Samuel L Jackson.
