Fan of the Month!
Interviewed by Kayt
For the beginning of 2006 we have another Fan of the Month from the northeast. He's actually
from Musikfest territory, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania! He's a man of few words but he definitely
grooves to the Moscow beat... Let's welcome James!
For the record, what is your name?
JamesBondLQ
Where were you born, and where did you grow up?
Bethlehem, PA
What were your main interests, entertainment and otherwise, growing up?
Any obsessions you don’t mind people knowing about?
Music and, well,The Red Elvises of course.
Tell us about your musical endeavors and any musical instruments you play…
I can play trumpet and wanna learn bass guitar.
What accomplishments are you most proud of at this point in your life?
The fact that I saw every single Red Elvises show at Musikfest, I guess.
What are your favorite movies?
Don't watch movies really, but I guess "Rocky Horror."
Do you have any favorite books?
Does TV Guide count?
What music are you into, in addition to Red Elvises?
All kinds; I LOVE music.
When, where, how, etc. did you first hear and experience Red Elvises?
Well, I went to the library many years back to borrow some CDs of bands I haven't heard before.
A Red Elvises CD happened to be there so I was like, 'Hmmm, this seems interesting...never
heard of them before' and I fell in love at 1st play. See, the library can be useful sometimes; it
could be a great way to find out about bands you never heard of before.
Interviewer's note: Yes, who says rock 'n roll can't be educational?! Red
Elvises in your local library? Sure, why not?! That's a great story!
About how many times have you seen them?
Every single Musikfest show and whenever I can get a designated driver for when they're in the
area.
What is it about Red Elvises that draws you to them, that you like the most?
Their energy, and the music is easy to get into.
What’s the farthest you’ve traveled to see them? And do you have a good story around
that?
Not far enough.
Which show is your favorite of the Red Elvises shows you've seen?
They were all awesome, I can't choose.
Any other standout, all time great memories of shows you’ve seen so far?
Not really, they were all awesome shows.
What are your favorite Red Elvises songs?
I can't say... They're all great in their own ways.
What would you like to see them do in the future? Any ideas? Anything you’d
like to say to the band?
Keep up the great work guys! Come to the Allentown, PA area more... Would love to get to know
you guys better.
Okay, last question… Do you have anything you’d especially like to say to
all the fans?
Get out to every show, support these guys, they're awesome and great!
