(23/365) Song from a band or artist that you have met in person: I was super early to a Fu Manchu concert and was hanging out with the band before the club workers kicked me out. They were talking about food mostly, bananas and Mexican food, to be precise. They are so down-to-earth, very cool in person.

(19/365) A song that you love from a band that has since broken up: Please stop what you are doing and listen to at least the first minute of this song. This was a band called Frank Jordan. I think the band name hindered them, they should have been huge. No one in the band was named Frank, they just went with it, but it’s difficult to search for them because of people named Frank Jordan. Anyways, this is off their Enemies EP. I highly recommend finding a copy of their debut album “Decoy” or their last one “Ohio”. They were a talented band, but never broke out even though they had the ability.

(16/365) A song you have seen performed live: I could just put one song, but I found the entire first concert I ever went to. I have this on videotape at home. Page and Plant on May 17, 1995 at the Great Western Forum. I was in the 13th row on the floor, but I made my way to the 10th row. My ears were ringing for a couple days after.

(15/365) A song your parents played on road trips when you were young: There wasn’t very many times when my parents played music on trips. I can only recall 3 cassettes they would ever play, a Frank Sinatra greatest hits, a Barbara Streisand album and a Clancy Brothers album. Frank was my favorite.
