No one in particular. Met enough people. I'm done. Whoever else comes along... just don't annoy me. Please.
Music:
Arcade Fire, Beatles, Beck, Bowie, Broken SS, Buckley, Cat Power, Coldplay, Nat King Cole, Concrete Blonde (Johnette Napolitano is one of the coolest women in rock but no one ever seems to acknowledge her), Miles Davis, The Dears, Feist, Green Day, Sarah Harmer, Interpol, Madonna, Aimee Mann, Dean Martin, Bob Marley, Joni Mitchell, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, Bonnie Raitt, Frank Sinatra, Stereophonics, The Stills, The Stones, U2, The Verve, Neil Young, Zeppelin ... and so many more
Movies:
Like A LOT of movies. Favorite all-time: Moonstruck
Favourite lately: The Departed;
Have also started a DVD collection of music movies... NOT live concert or music video DVDs, but movies or docs about or featuring music: ie. laurel canyon, high fidelity, the wall, 8mile, the last waltz, purple rain, the doors, hard day's night, and the all-time classic spinal tap
... I also have a fascination with surfing movies: Step Into Liquid and Riding Giants. I've only surfed once, but I could watch those movies over and over...
Television:
drives me crazy... but I will watch any Law and Order, The Sopranos... and 24 !!! Jack Bauer rocks.
Books:
mostly into music biographies and poetry books, but also like a good novel now and then...
Heroes:
I have a few (Bono, Sir Bob) but they're just human like the rest of us: "oh we can be heroes... just for one day"
