The Committee For Getting Attention deserves some notice. She has no shows lined up. She has no record deal. This very morning she offered up her demos for anyone to hear. They are raw. They are honest. I dig them. She is recording for realz this fall. She was awesome enough to continue this, what I like to call First/Last Fridays.
Thanks so much Kayla. Nothing wrong with Fastball. 'The Way' is my seventh favorite song to play on guitar. Right before #8-Air Supply's 'Lost In Love'. I can definitely reiterate that wherever anyone is, they don't have a Manny. Oh yeah, and the Flyers do suck.

The first album you ever bought?
Fastball. All the Pain Money Can Buy. Actually my mom
or dad bought it for me because I was in 4th grade.
Your last album bought?
Your last album bought?
Bought or downloaded? Last album I bought was Power
Move by The Screaming Females on vinyl. It's perfect!
Favorite album of all time?
Favorite album of all time?
It's impossible to pinpoint just one but the first
that come to mind...either Out Come the Wolves by Rancid or Red Eyed Soul by
World/Inferno Friendship Society. Probably the former just because it's super
nostalgic.
Least favorite/most disappointing album?
Least favorite/most disappointing album?
I was way disappointed with Rancid's Let the Dominos
Fall or whatever it was called. Tim's burnt out, I think.
First concert attended?
First concert attended?
Suckerpunch Thompsons and the River
City Rebels at American Music Cafe in Murrysville. I still have the flyer, which I somehow
acquired years later, somewhere. Bopper was the lead singer of the Rebels. He
was this sweaty, shirtless, dude with a big 'ol gut who somehow managed to be
very glam-rock in the way he carried himself. It was a great first-show
experience.
Last concert?
Last concert?
Zombie Dogs at The Marvelous! in West Philly. Last
PGH concert was Screaming Females at Helter Shelter!
Favorite concert ever?
Favorite concert ever?
World/Inferno Hallowmas 2008. Snuck in through the
back entrance of the Brooklyn
Masonic Temple
and wound up on stage behind the curtains. I believe it had been sold out so we
definitely got lucky there. Music For Everyone Fest at Helter Shelter this year
is up there too!
Least favorite concert?
Least favorite concert?
Probably something that I played with The Hormones.
We always were put on shitty shows.
Favorite thoughts, experiences about Pittsburgh?
Favorite thoughts, experiences about Pittsburgh?
Pittsburgh has been my stomping grounds for a good 6 or so
years now. Manny was the first person to book The Hormones, which was my first
band. He's booked the CFGA many a time now too. I'm in Philadelphia currently and I can tell you
that they don't have a Manny, or a Howler's or a Belvedere's. Not so far
anyway. Nothing even comes close out here. Oh and the Flyers suck.
