Who are you?
Bimbi, Smoofus, Mathis. Aural Exciter.
Describe yourself in three words.
Seeker, Listener, Glistener
Who - dead or alive - would most you like to meet?
Lame Deer or Don Juan Matus. Wouldn’t mind learning to shapeshift and fly.
Who would you most like to slap in the face?
Limbaugh is pretty jive, but rather than slap him, I’d like to keep feeding him ham sandwhiches and oxycontin.
What song do you wish you had written?
Too many to count. Right this second, I’m wondering what Chuck D and Flav thought when the Shocklee brothers played them the beat for “Fight The Power.”
Elvis Costello or Elvis Presley?
Beatles during the week, Stones on the weekends.
LP, CD or MP3?
Crests and troughs or right angles... a technology that thrived for over a hundred years, or something we just came up with in the last 30... they all have their place in these modern times, I suppose.
If you could start one trend, what would it be?
People learning an instrument BEFORE booking a show.
If you could end one trend, what would it be?
The concept of time, and therefore being “on time” to “things.” I’m just trying to get somewhere.
With whom would you most like to play a game of spin the bottle?
We people who are darker than blue.
