Wildness.
The first show I ever saw was Kiss in 1979, I was 13. I grew up on that stuff. The 80s in Minneapolis was fun, mostly. I worked at the Uptown Bar and saw a lot of bands. Babes in Toyland, Cows, Run Westy Run, Soul Asylum, Bob Mould, the Jayhawks, Magnolias, the Mighty Mofos, the Clams, ArcWelder were some of the local bands that played there. Mudhoney, dwarves, Tad, Flaming Lips, Laughing Hyenas, No Means No, 13 Engines, and many others from out of town. Now I own more John Dever than most people even know exists. Funny how things change when we let them.
I've had this thing for Scandinavian Folk music since about 2000, not sure why. I recently picked up Rush's album Fly By Night again, this is like the 4th or 5th tiime I have owned it. I listen to the songs and think about life and everything makes sense. How I ended up who I am that is.
All time favorites...Paris, Texas; Shindler's List; Cool Hand Luke; For a Fist Full of Dollars; Digby - Biggest Dog in the World; The Terminator; Life is Beautiful...
I recently saw two wonderful films that made me laugh and cry. Off the Map and My Life Without Me.
I once read Jonathan Livingston Seagull twice in a day.
Plague Dogs, Papillon, Big Red, Old Yeller, Where the Red Fern Grow, and all of S. E. Hinton's books had big influences on me as a kid.
Now I have this thing for post apocalyptic fiction which my friend Tom helps me out with. And I'm always reading something sciencey or historic.
Eskimo husky dogs. People who own what is theirs to own.
