QUESTION: What is your favorite band?
Answer: Rush (I know, I know. I'm working on it). I also like putting on the occasional David Hasselhoff; he's redefining pop music as we know it, I tell you what.

Q: What's your favorite book?
A: 1984, by George Orwell. It's there for me every time I consider beginning to vote Republican. (Well, by that, I really only mean re-electing Dubya.)

Q: Where do you get your inspiration from?
A: I'm a drummer. As it stands, I can barely even spell "inspiration." Yanni is my greatest influence, though.

Q: Have you ever seen a stripper do the "Wild Stallion?"
A: I choreographed the instructional video.

Q: What is your favorite movie?
A: Glitter, hands down. I can hardly wait for the sequel.

Q: What do you wish you were doing right now?
A: I wish I was traversing the Appalachian trail on a pogo stick while writing a book about it.
