If you could only play one Edge Artist for an entire day, who would it be?
Pearl Jam.
Who is your favorite band/musician that is not played on The Edge?
Too many to name. Sticking to one type of music is boring.
Who is the nicest musician/band you’ve ever met?
Sam Roberts was nicer to me than most lifelong friends and family tbh.
What’s the first concert you ever went to?
NSYNC. This one is for you “the Edge went soft” crowd! 😘
What is the first cassette, vinyl, CD you ever bought?
CD was Green Day’s American Idiot. No idea on cassette or vinyl but the answers are probably upsetting.
What is the one album you could listen to every day and not get sick of?
“My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy”
Who is the most underrated musician/band?
What a way too open ended question. We talking eras? Genres? I have too many hot takes for this question to not be more specific!
What’s your favorite memory while working with The Edge?
Serious answer? The person I worked for before the Edge hated radio and that I was still in it. Getting hired at the Edge and leaving that job is probably my favorite memory. P.S. I think that other place went under.
What are you most likely to become famous for?
Well, this question was humbling to say the least.
What are you really bad at?
Hey, this question not so much!
Could you go one week without technology?
Oh my god, please.
What’s your favorite holiday?
1. Vampire Weekend
2. Weezer
3. Green Day
…
4. Madonna
What’s your biggest pet peeve?
People who say “real rock is dead.” First off, real rocks are found outside. Second, no it’s not. It’s actually everywhere, including here on the Edge. Third, if anything genres are dead. The longest charting #1 song of all time is a country/hip hop hybrid which samples a Nine Inch Nails deep cut. It was a pop song.
What’s the creepiest thing you could say to a stranger while passing them on the street?
“Hi, I work in radio.”
What board game do you hate the most?
All of them. Board games are useless. Except Risk though. There’s a game you can set your watch to.
What’s the best WIFI name you’ve ever seen?
Definitely not going to put it in writing on my workpage, but I connected to it from the bar at Ying’s, and that should tell you all you need to know.
If you could un-invent something, what would it be?
The phrase “so I did a thing.”
What would be the best thing about not having a sense of smell?
You ever park in that lot behind Goodbar? Probably wouldn’t miss the smell of all those dumpsters.
What do you do when you turn off the mic in the studio?
Sometimes I forget to turn it ON.
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
I don’t even think sliced bread is the greatest thing since sliced bread. You’re gonna tell me a good pizza isn’t as good as sliced bread?
Would you rather be able to copy and paste in real life or undo in real life?
This is the point in this questionnaire where I realized our promotion director Sara was getting real desperate with these questions.
