Welcome to FAN OF THE MONTH!

Please tell us a little about yourself (Job, hobbies, etc.): 
I work in a printing facility for the last 14 years.  I run a screen printing press.  I love, love, love music.  I go to concerts every chance I get.  Lately I have been going out to support some of our local bands.  We have some pretty good local bands around here.  Within the last couple of years alot more national acts have been coming through town, which is nice.  It gets tiring having to drive 2 - 6 hours to go see your favorite bands.  I also have an intense love for animals.  I have 2 dogs and 2 cats.  All are spoiled rotten.  I treat them like they are my children.

 

How/when and why did you get into L.A. Guns?
I have loved LA Guns from the beginning.  The first time I heard them was on MTV.  Electric Gypsy was on and I was hooked from that moment on.  I love the voice, the sleaze, the sound.  Definently my favorite band.

 

What is your favourite song/album?
Oh this is so hard!  I would have to say that "The Ballad" on Waking The Dead is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard.  I love Electric Gypsy, No Mercy, Gypsy Soul, Give A Little.  I could go on and on.  I can not pick a favorite album.  I like all of them that Phil is singing on, and honestly haven't heard the other albums that have different singers.

 

 


Now share your favourite L.A. Guns story/memory, please: 
I only have one memory.  I have only got to see them once live.  It was a really great show, and oh so loud!  I loved it!  I was really impressed.  Every one of the guys were very nice and it was a pleasure to meet them.  I am still waiting very patiently for them to come back around here.  I think next year I will be doing some traveling to go see the boys, though.  Road trips are funs!

 

What other bands do you like?
I like Tesla, Skid Row, Buckcherry, Motley Crue, Faster Pussycat, Kix, HELLYEAH, Stone Temple Pilots,  Ratt (RIP King)and tons of other music.  I even like quite a bit of country music too.

 

What is /are your favourite book(s)?
The Mayfair Witches books and The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice, alot of Nora Roberts books.  I really like reading biographies and autobiographies and true crime stories.



And which is/are your favourite movie(s)?
Dracula by Francis Ford Coppola is my all time favorite movie.  Also love The Devils Rejects, Fast Times At Ridgemont High, The Lost Boys, The Color Purple, Slingblade, Dances With Wolves.



Any famous last words? 
Thank you very much for making me FOTM.  June is my birthday month and this is a pretty awesome birthday present.
