| Nick Zinner (guitar) of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. they look like fashion darlings. they sound like a ferral ally cat being dragged ass backward through a blender to the sound of a slide guitar ballad. Are these New Yorkers too cool to be rock n roll? 1. Do you have a mission statement? (left blank- oooh) 2. Smoking is a) cool b) not cool or c) it’ll give you cancer unfortuantely, it depends on the person- its the universal degenerator. i smoke, but im not sure if it makes me any cooler,just a bit less nervous. it looks pretty sexy , people tell me. and c, is obvious. 3. Whats the most rocknroll motherfucker thing you’ve done? we played with the D4. 4. What’s in your garage? a bass, and some skeletons. 5. If you could be the support for any band ever, who would it be? the spiders from mars. 6. The Strokes – load of shit or bigger than Jesus? well, those fella's are really tall- the guitar player, nick, most stand 7 feet, probably a foot or two above jesus. 7. Who was/is the epitome of rock n roll excess? keith richards, and nikki sixx, my hero. 8. Who’s the most famous person you’ve ever thrown up on/ punched drunkedly? i tried to start a fight with rufus wainright a few years back, but failed pathetically. karen apparently threw down courtney love, but she doesnt really remember. 9. What’s on your collective record player right now? ethiopiques vol.1 for me. karen was just listening to "let the music play". what a song! brian is probably listening to rachmaninov or the country teasers. 10. Any words of rock n roll wisdom for the readers? no, not yet-but any tips are welcome. |
