: : 1. What would your style be? : Comedy Rock. Parody songs, long weird instrumentals, some original stuff, some impressions. A lot of costumes and use of strange multi-media on the tours. Think Weird Al meets Tenacious D with a little Moxy Fruvous thrown in for good measure, musically... but Flaming Lips meets David Bowie on a hash bender, theatrically. : : 2. Who would your line up be? : myself - lead vocals, harmonica, kazoo, bongos : my brother - lead guitar, backing vocals : my father - piano, backing vocals : my buddy Adam - rhythm guitar : my buddy Amanda - bass, backing vocals : my buddy Karissa, drums : : 3. Where would you like to perform? : Every year on Halloween, in Madison Square Garden, we would perform the 1970s rock opera "War of the Worlds". : Every summer we would do a tour of midsized Northeastern outdoor venues, Darien Lake, Saratoga, Finger Lakes, etc... and every late fall, early winter, a tour of smaller clubs from Vancouver to San Diego. : Late winter and spring are for recording. : : 4. What would your name be? : Screaming Viking. : : 5. What would your first album be called? : Sensitive Love Songs : : 6. What was your second album be called? : Don't Quit Your Day Job : : 7. Everyone has a difficult third album. Why was yours difficult? : Because the people will start to realize my brother's legitimate guitar prowess and start to wonder why he's wasting his talent on my stupid parody songs. Only when Dan admits to the world "because it's not hard work to just have fun and I hate hard work" will the media pressure come off. : : 8. Give yourself three big scandals? : 1.) Our attempt to contact Frank Zappa by Ouija to get permission to perform "Watermelon in Easter Hay" will ruffle some feathers. : 2.) Dan's attempts to become mayor of Vancouver on a "Legalize It" ticket despite his residence in New York will ruffle some feathers. : 3.) Our opening act on our largest tour Guns N Roses will drop out after a dozen shows... leaving the world to wonder who we'll get to replace it. We will remedy the matter by putting together a 70s supergroup Kermit the Prog to open for us. This band will consist of: : David Bowie : Robert Fripp : Brian Eno : Peter Gabriel : Tony Levin : Phil Collins : And it will rock. Verily. Halfway through the restored tour, we will make ourselves the opening act, out of respect. : : 9. Every band needs a feud/ celeb/ politician to badmouth. Which would you badmouth? : NADER! : : 10. Why did your ficitonal band split up? : We'll pretend to break up for about a year so that after we get some solo projects done, we'll sell all the more albums when we get back together. : Mike
