Saturday, March 28th, 2009
Who are you?
Brandon Arnold…think about it.
Describe yourself in three words.
I don’t know.
Who — dead or alive — would you most like to meet?
Brian Eno, Arthur Lee or Mitch Hedberg.
Who would you most like to slap in the face?
non-pacifists.
What song do you wish you had written?
“Stephanie Says” by the Velvet Underground or “Rocket Queen” by Guns and Roses
Elvis Costello or Elvis Presley?
I have to say I’ve spent more time listening to Elvis Costello, but I always do ”Suspicious Minds” at Happy Karaoke. I tried doing “Allison” once, and it was a disaster.
LP, CD or MP3?
3D-LP. I like to buy LP’s and convert them to MP3’s. Haven’t bought a CD in years…That said, I highly encourage you to buy the Preakness CD.
If you could start one trend, what would it be?
Being nice all the time.
If you could end one trend, what would it be?
Being a jerk all the time.
With whom would you most like to play a game of spin the bottle?
She-Ra or Xena.
