Comment on this post and I will choose seven interests from your profile. You will then explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so that others can play along.
Girl in a Coma
They're an awesome band made up of three girls. They're on Joan Jett's record label and have opened for Morrissey (one of the most amazingly genius musicians ever, IMO). Their name is actually an homage to the song Girlfriend in a Coma. Check them out.. nnnnyyyooow. www.myspace.com/girlsinacoma
Tom Petty
He's one of the greatest singer/songwriters of all time. The song "Last Dance With Mary Jane" never fails to get a reaction out of me. If you haven't heard of him you really need to. He's not for everyone, but he's pretty amazing.
Across the Universe
My favorite Beatles song. It's also a pretty decent musical about the Beatles.
David Rovics
He's a political folk musician that my dad got me interested in. I've seen him perform and this guy can really captivate a crowd. You can download ALL his music for free from his website www.davidrovics.com
Loreena McKennitt
She's a singer that does a lot of traditional Celtic music. I love her voice, it's extremely relaxing. You've probably heard her song The Mummers' Dance, as it was very popular. If not, you should download it, definitely worth a listen. My favorite album of hers is probably Parallel Dreams.
Type O Negative
An awesome band from New York. Peter Steele has one of the deepest and most interesting voices I've ever heard, he's like Danzig on downers. Peter Steele also has a HUGE penis.. like, scary huge... like, he feeds it rabbits huge. Not that you wanted to know that.
Combos
Only one of the greatest snack foods known to man. They come in two varieties: pretzel and cracker, with numerous fillings such as nacho cheese, cheddar cheese, pepperoni pizza. They're amazingly delicious and addictive... I could LIVE off of those things.
