1. Have you seen any films this past week? Which?

I watched Tropic Thunder for the first time last night and laughed my ass off the entire way through that movie. Probably one of the funniest movies I have seen since Death At A Funeral

2. What is your religious affiliation, if any?

While I do believe that this universe has many secrets that we will never know, I can't bring myself to believe in some Omnipotent creator.

3. What are you listening to right now, music or otherwise?

Just finished listening to The Final Chapter by Hypocrisy and now I am listening to Of Darkness... by fellow Swedish Death Metal band Therion

4. Are the Beatles overrated?

Their music doesn't do anything for me personally, but I do give them credit for what they were able to achieve, overrated no, but over used, yes.

5. Have you or will you go anywhere on vacation this summer?


A few friends of mine and I are planning on going to another ghost town in a few weeks, but other than that I'm not really going anywhere except Vancouver.

6. Do you play any instruments?

I've played guitar for 7 years now, but lately I've had my sights set on picking up a banjo.

we get it Rickenbacker, you like the Beatles, and in my opinion no.
No, I think that they are overrated. I like most of what they did Rubber Soul and afterwards.

Didn't mean to make myself out to be a Beatles fanboy...

Slacker, Death at a Funeral, MST3K: Zombie Nightmare, Return of the Living Dead, Venus In Furs, and I think that's it....

2. What is your religious affiliation, if any?

Atheist, or Dylanist

3. What are you listening to right now, music or otherwise?
Ive been getting into The Good, The Bad, & The Queen lately, it has that same detached desolated sound like in the Gorillaz second album. Ive started getting into Radiohead again. Last album I listened to was Beck's Odelay.

4. Are the Beatles overrated?
In some respects yes, people always go on how they are the greatest band ever but Ive always found them boring. But in the case of influence there really isnt a band that comes close to them.

5. Have you or will you go anywhere on vacation this summer?
Ive been in summer school for most of this summer but when I get out I'll probably go to the beach then up to Austin, and to a music festival in Houston.

6. Do you play any instruments?

Bass for about 7 years, and guitar for about 2 but I'd love to get into making electronic music.

I find it easier to pick up and play than the guitar, but it's more difficult to become truly good at, I'm not really competent at any of my instruments though, so it doesn't really matter to me. I also find it more fun to play.

For those that prefer arpeggios and fingerpicking over chords and using plectrums, it's an ideal choice.

Plus Banjos just have a great sound.

Don't really watch movies, but I saw Pan's Labyrinth because I was babysitting my younger cousin (wasn't age appropriate btw)

2. What is your religious affiliation, if any?

I try to avoid talking about religion with my friends because I piss them off but I am a blatant anti-theist. one of those ******* atheists, I try not to talk too much about religion anymore though.

3. What are you listening to right now, music or otherwise?

Some bootlegs of the Abbey Road Rooftop concert (Beatles).

4. Are the Beatles overrated?

A bit, don't really care though.

5. Have you or will you go anywhere on vacation this summer?

I am planning some of those boring college trips into West Pennsylvania, going to be terrible.

6. Do you play any instruments?

Bass, Piano, that's it. I never slap or do anything really extravagant with the bass, just play really fast repetitive lines.

I don't think i have, nope! I think i've only watch about 2 hours of tv this week

2. What is your religious affiliation, if any?

I'm very much an agnostic. I don't have faith in organised religions but i stick to my own beliefs, i do believe there is something there. To be honest i think christianity is nothing but a giant cult, the same with islam and other main religions. The truth is nobody really knows where we go when we die.

3. What are you listening to right now, music or otherwise?

I have my itunes on shuffle at the mo, currently listening to Break My Body by the Pixies.

4. Are the Beatles overrated?

Maybe, i don't really care about them that much.

5. Have you or will you go anywhere on vacation this summer?

Nope haha, working too hard. I might be going to a music festival in september though.

6. Do you play any instruments?

Guitar (badly) and keyboards (badly)
