-What got you into radio? I’ve loved music my entire life. I’ve played in bands for 25 years and I’ve always wanted to be on the other side of things. I’ve listened to this station since I was a kid, so this is a dream come true for me.
-What was/is your all time favorite toy? I’m not sure if you’d consider it a toy really but probably my karaoke machine. I’ve spent more time with that in my life than I would like to admit
-Do you have any cool talents/skills? I’m a vocalist and a musician, so I play several instruments. I love mixing drinks and I’m not terrible at basketball
-Who is your favorite sports team(s)? The Boston Red Sox. I’ve loved the team and everything they stand for since I was a kid
-If you won a million dollars, what would be the first thing you would buy? Probably a home studio so that I could make my own music at home and learn production for other artists
–What is your favorite movie of all time? That’s the hardest question ever. Probably Girl Interrupted, but I genuinely love horror movies and slasher flicks more than anything
-If you could only play one video game for the rest of your life, what would it be? Border lands all the way. The comedy, the game play, and just the overall feeling it gives me makes me feel like a kid again
-Who is your celebrity crush? I would have to say Pink eventhough I have several honorable mentions including the queen, Joan Jett
-What is your biggest fear? Heights! Anything higher than 6 feet in the air is entirely too high for my liking
-If you could see any band perform live (living or dead) who would it be? Another hard question because there’s so many but I would have to choose Janis Joplin. She just really knew how to capture the crowd and get vocals were amazing live
-What is your biggest pet peeve? People chewing with their mouths open. Something about it just really gives me the ick
-What’s your favorite drink at the bar? Rum and pineapple juice at the bar but bloody Mary’s if I’m having dinner
-Do you have any pets? Yes. I have 3 cats, 2 dogs, 2 hissing cockroaches, 2 Death Feigning Beetles, and a tarantula
-What was your first concert? KISS. My mom was a fan and it was something that really got me into rock music
-What is your favorite food? Cereal or anything Italian, especially pasta
-Do you have any cool tattoos or piercings? I have over 50 tattoos and several piercings, but my favorite tattoo is the logo and signatures of my favorite band
-What was the biggest fad you got into? JNCO jeans and Tripp pants. I was such a goth kid in high school. Not much has changed.
-If you could hop into the DeLorean and travel back/forwarded to anytime/place. . .where/when/why? I would go back to high school before 2005 and re do it all. I would take the time to enjoy things more before becoming an adult and having real responsibilities.
