Saw Pearl Jam in Boston when Theo Epstein (Red Sox GM) came up and played. I hate the Red Sox but that’s was wild.
R.E.M.!
David Bowie. Or Velvet Underground.
Our Lady Peace are among the best human beings I’ve ever known. From their manager all the way down, I’m never more proud to call a band friends than I am with OLP. By the way, the Metallica guys are in that conversation too. I always make a point to tell people that because maybe you wouldn’t think so but they are fun and kind but most of all very sincere.
Beatles’ Magical Mystery Tour
The Clash self-titled
The Ramones (I call them the best American band ever. No one else does. They are wrong.)
“Duhhhh”
Honestly, Goodfellas the Musical would be amazing. Especially if you included puppets.
Tim Switala
More Hidden Happy Hours, Pop-Up/Unpluggeds, CRNVLs and HRVSTs.
I invented sneakers.
Answering “what are you most likely to become famous for?”.
Snow removal of any kind.
The “ding“ of a plane landing safely.
LOL no.
Christmas begins November 1st for me.
Taking social media too seriously.
“Take me with you.”
Monopoly is the actual worst.
I’m a big Thursday fan. Good band too.
I can do the alphabet forward and backward. This skill has gotten me out of trouble once or twice.
“Getcha own damn Wi-Fi”
Sour Patch Watermelon
I take it to the bathroom and throw it out and pretend I loved it. Or if it’s REALLY bad, I’ll apologize for being a distraction.
Fun.
No but I’m willing.
I’d yell “nipples” over and over for half a minute.
American Idol
Ew.
Schmoo.
Hitched on a car during a snowstorm. I’m completely shocked I’m still alive.
Did it again.
Stare into Shredd and Ragan’s office until someone notices I’m just staring at all of them.
FDR because that would be such a dick move.
Sliced bread terrifies me. I’m not kidding about this. I choose to avoid this question.
Anyone who doesn’t say undo is the lyingest liar ever.
