Bill Gates gives you a certified cheque for one thousand dollars, which must be entirely spent within the next twenty-four hours. How do you use it?
Buy music that I can't find online?
What's your favourite part of Thanksgiving dinner?
Leaving.
What's your favourite movie franchise?
Urban's pick of the Cornetto Trilogy unless all Tarantino movies count as one franchise.
What do you feel has been the best year for music from 1915-2014?
This is a cop-out, but I'd pick 2014 - now more than ever we are capable of listening to great music from the past, and now more than ever artists are capable of putting their music out there. If I'm answering the question of "What year have the best/your favorite albums come out?" I guess I pick 1997. Great stuff by Spiritualized, Radiohead, Sleater-Kinney, Built to Spill, Old 97s, Teenage Fanclub, Modest Mouse, Mogwai, Yo La Tengo. But I can't really choose.
Do you consider yourself patriotic?
No, I'm fundamentally opposed to any form of nationalism.
Do you have a distinct dressing style? If so, what is it?
I wear cardigans, band t-shirts, Oxford shirts, some flannel, dark jeans, and corduroy pants. That is my entire range.
