Interview with Dan of Hollow Ground
Bogdan hasn't kicked my ass yet hehehe...oh well (to know what the hell I'm talking about, Click here!) So I lived long enough to interview Dan of Hollow Ground. This guy kicks ass. You know I should stop saying stuff before interviews because I'M RUNNING OUT OF THINGS TO SAY!!!!....i'll be ok....
LADYESTRELLA: So how are you?
DAN: good, yourself ?
LE: I'm fine thanks.....The lineup of Hollow Ground has changed throughout the years. Tell us about it.
D: OK, matt started the band in '92 . i didn't join til '94. we found rob as our bassist in '96. funny thing is his brother was the original drummer of hollow ground.
LE: what happened with that?
D: His brother , Ron , just didn't fill the vision Matt had for the band . but they remained close freinds and still are great freinds. As am I
LE: That's always good to hear.
D: yeah we always hang out
LE: How would you describe your music?
D: i like the description " extreme thrash " cause everything gets pigeonholed . thats what we like to call it cause we're not too "death metal" but not very mainstream metal. i think. we're not like mortician but we're not korn. (ed: Thank god! - LadyEstrella)
LE: If you were a character from a cheesy old show, who would you be?
D: if i can pick a cartoon i'd say homer simpson
LE: hmm...i was thinking along the lines of like full house or the andy griffith show or something *laughs*
D: oh ok
LE: I can see you as Barney Fife
LE: just kidding
*both laugh*
D: I'M STUMPED. That's a great question
LE: *laughs* it's so sad that I know so much about TV
D: that's cool ..um.... probably baretta
LE: uhh...that's one thing i don't remember ..wow *heehee*
D: i like cheesy 70's cop shows.He was the coolest i thought, Damn i'm getting old!
LE: How old are you anyway?
D: 29
LE: um...no comment, joking! *hiding under her leather trench coat and speaking in a small voice* don't hurt me
D: i won't
LE: okee *gets out and laughs*
D: i'm a nice dude
LE: You sure are...anyone who can put up with me has a lot of patience j/k
D: yep
LE: ok, it was your turn to get a shot at me *laughs*
D: who would you be on tv ?
LE: *laughs* oh god! lemme think *thinks* probably *cuban accent* LUCYYYYYYYYYYYYY! I can do that whine pretty good.
D: bbbaaaaabbbbbaaaaaaalooooooooooo
LE: *laughing..* ok....this one's gonna take some thinking. Which one of you is the toughest motherfucker in the band?
D: Me !!! I am 10 and O! i knock those motherfuckers out all the time!!!!
LE: Is there a certain type of music that others find it unbelievable or funny that you listen to?
D: of course the back street boys and that whole scene is a travesty in my mind .
LE: haha sure they are *snickering*
D: i can't understand singers getting all the credit for shaking their asses
LE: That really pisses me off
D: and never even playing a note or learning a single instrument. Most of them do not write any music. Thats what i find unbelievable and funny.
LE: Oh well...those 15 minute losers don't last long
D: they'll never have to work again though
LE: This subject is depressing *laughs*
D: yeah
LE: Who designed your website? It kicks ass!!!
D: matt (singer/guitarist ) did . he's really adept with computers and electronic stuff . you should see what his amp looks like!
LE: Who is the biggest wigger on this planet?
D: fred durst of limp bizkit...or will smith...
LE: Alright..I had a good time....but that about wraps it up. *evil voice* any last words? *snicker*
D: i enjoyed chatting with you as well . we're in the studio working on our newest cd called 00:00:00 (zero hundred hours) it should be available around halloween.
LE: Cool, hey, send me a copy I'll put up a review man!
D: i will. did i send you a tape of our old stuff ?
LE: nah, u didn't
D: want one for review ?
LE: Sure!
D: you have an address i can send it to
LE: yeah, i'll give it after the interview
D: ok cool
LE: rock on!
I just realised he didn't quite answer my question about what humiliating music he liked...oh well heehee.
