4. What song pretty much sums you up?

5. What's your favorite local band?
Jack Johnson, i suppose.

6. What was the last concert you attended?

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

U2. Just huge. Seeing Les Miserables live was sweet as well.

8. What's the worst band you've ever seen in concert?
...I don't know. Maybe this one Christian Screamo Metal-ish band I saw in this one church. Talking about the Crucifixion of Christ in one song and dang, I didn't understand a word and my ear was like blown up.

9. What band do you like musically but dislike the members of?

I don't know, honestly.

16. Sabbath or solo Ozzy?
Ooooh. Sabbath was heavy. Ozzy...Crazy train. Both.

The bass player is funky.
