Name Your favorite bands/artists (as many as you like): the Shins, AC/DC, the Clash, the Whitlams, Death Cab For Cutie, Interpol, Hot Hot Heat, the Arcade Fire, Coldplay, the Strokes, Spiderbait, Grinspoon, Franz Ferdinand, the White Stripes, Portishead, Evermore, Doves, the Dandy Warhols, the Who, Oasis, No Doubt, the Smiths, Kaiser Chiefs, U2, Foo Fighters, the Pixies, Massive Attack, the Libertines, Chemical Brothers, Blur, Radiohead and the Thrills.
What was the best concert you've ever attended? I'm not fond of concerts, I hate crowds!
Do you listen to the radio? I used to listen a lot, but now only when I'm in the car and even then, very rarely.
Do you listen to alot of older music (70's, 80's, 90's), or mostly current music? I listen to everything. I'm a huge fan of 70's and 80's music, but I do like a lot of the Indie that's being released today.
Do you want to work in the music business or in a music-related job? (singer, music journalist, manager, teacher, etc.) : It's such a hectic industry, I really don't think I'm cut out for it. I like writing, so being a music journalist would rock, but I don't think that's the career path for me.
What is the extent of your musical education? I was in the choir in primary school and did violin for 3 years but haven't been 'taught' anything musical for at least 8 years now.
Would you like the Music Club to focus more on commercial music, traditional music, or another type? (In other words, what kind of activities would you like to see?) I would love to see lyric contests (either guessing lyrics, or even writing our own), trivia contests, and definitely music sharing. Perhaps a good activity could be posting 'essays' (I don't mean 1000 word things, just 100-200 words) about a band we would love everyone to hear and posting a few songs for eveyone to listen to. As for what type of music you should focus on? Anything and everything. I suppose we should do commercial music to a lesser extent because EVERYONE has heard those songs (on the radio or TV), but I feel it should still be focused on, it's only fair.
