A
little about yourself... (job, interests, etc.):
I work as
a project secretary for a company that designs and builds industrial plants.
However, I see my work rather as an odd mix between typist, agony aunt,
"pamperer" of (male) egos and dogsbody.
Other than that: I'm 34 years old, a natural blonde, dyed red at the moment
(see pic above), and I almost exclusively wear black. I like listening
to music (apart from LAG and a few other bands mostly non-metal stuff
like New Model Army, The Alarm, The Waterboys, Andy Prieboy and and and),
spending time with friends and family, watching movies, going on holidays,
writing short stories, and I love my pets (pics below).
These are our pets,
Falconer and Wisby, the bunnies, and Drusilla, Grisu, Zora, Winnifred
and Charlotte, the guinea-pigs.
When
did you first join the LAG board?
Must have been October 2001, soon after the UK tour
back then. However, I had been reading the board for quite some time before
that.
When
did you first hear LAG?
That was in 1988. I saw "One More Reason" on MTV (when MTV still
played good music!), and I was absolutely taken with this video (I still
am, although, I must say, the looks of the guys have definitely improved
over the years).
Your
fav LAG song?
Tough question. There are so many songs I really like (and others I cannot
stand at all - yes, I admit it, I don't like each and every LAG song),
and naming a favourite song is kind of a mood thing. At the moment, it's
definitely FREQUENCY. I love this song, and I hope I'll hear it live some
day.
Your
fav LAG album?
Tie between "Waking
The Dead" and "Man In The Moon". Those are the two albums
I do like all the songs from.
 
These are the flyers
I designed for street team purposes.
What's
the farthest you have travelled to see LAG play?
Steph and I were in New York in February to see
three shows (and meet Cherie and Flynn). This really was a cool weekend
(first time ever for us in the US). Still, the fact that I seem to have
to get on a plane every time I want to see LAG is a bit troublesome. I
hate flying, I'm really afraid of it. Hopefully, LAG'll manage to play
some shows near so I won't need to expose myself again to this stress,
at least not that soon. ;)
What's
your best LAG story?
When Steph and I saw the tour dates for LAG's winter tour and realized
that the band would be playing three shows in a row in NY I said to Steph
"Hm, do you think it would be a good idea to go to those shows?".
I think she still hasn't gotten over that shock of me making such a suggestion.
LOL. (Usually, she's the one to come up with crazy ideas like that whereas
I'm less ... adventurous.) Anyway, it was just some kind of weird idea
I had, I still don't know what came over me, and I didn't really see us
pulling it through so I probably assumed toying around with this idea
would be safe. Innocently, I asked Cherie, who we knew would be at those
shows, for (theoretical) help, and that was the point of no return. ;)
She almost immediately started making plans for the four of us (her, Flynn,
Steph and me) to go on this trip together, and I just couldn't wriggle
out of this anymore. Obviously,
I'm glad I didn't find a way to climb down as we had loads of fun, and
the shows were worth it. However,
as I only met LAG briefly in the past I have no personal stories to tell,
and -compared to the ones Teresa and Cherie told- everything I could share
with you would pale in comparison. All I can say is that LAG (band and
crew) didn't make us feel like being Cherie's and Flynn's "appendage",
for which I'm really thankful, and they also were nice when we, on our
own, met them again at the Great Britain shows in April.
 
L.A. Guns live at
the King's Club in February 2003. The best show of the three we saw.
What's
your fav LAG memorabilia?
I have
quite a few videos.
