1. Which instrument do you prefer in music, be it through playing it yourself or through the music that you listen to?
I'm mainly a drummer, so that's what I gravitate to a lot of times, particularly the groove of the drums and not so much the complexity factor. The audio engineer in me also gravitates to the drums in terms of overall sound, but unfortunately, in most music the drums are mashed to crap and EQ'd in such a way that they're simply being a rhythm-keeper, with the quality of their sound existing as an afterthought, or at the very least, secondary to everything else. While that's appropriate in a lot of cases if you want a produced, radio sound, the drummer in me wishes it wasn't so.

2. Are (or were) you wearing green today?
No. Come at me, bro.

3. What are your three "desert island" novels?
Deserted island? Whichever three have the most information about how to escape an island successfully.

4. What is your least favourite genre of music?
Zydeco.

5. If you had one million dollars and you had to spend it in one sitting, what would you buy?
A million bucks isn't really a lot of money, so I'd keep my job, buy a decent home and fill it with decent stuff, a reliable new truck and a reliable new car, I'd help out some family members, and put the rest in a savings plan that accrued interest.

6. What is your favourite drink?
Beer.

This made me chuckle. Totally understandable.

I love any music that has a good horn section.

2. Are (or were) you wearing green today?
Nope.

3. What are your three "desert island" novels?
Not really sure, but it'd be nice if they weren't similar to each other, and maybe one gave some pointers about how to get back to civilization.

4. What is your least favourite genre of music?
Screw.

5. If you had one million dollars and you had to spend it in one sitting, what would you buy?
Does "one sitting" mean all in one place? All on one thing? All in one day?

6. What is your favourite drink?
Water. Or beer. I'm pretty simple.

I like it too, on occasion. But I can still understand why someone who lives in Louisiana might be a over it.

Yeah, I suppose. It's probably like my attitude toward Irish (American) pubs.
