<p><a class=”wiki” href=”image-1” rel=”“>image-1</a> </p>

<p> <strong>Who are you?</strong> </p>

<p> Will Brown aka The Reverend of Boogie - Drummer for two of the finest rock & roll bands in town, Romeo Spike and The F’n Heartbreaks, but mainly just a true bon vivant. </p>

<p> <strong>Describe yourself in three words.</strong> </p>

<p> Wendy’s. Chocolate. Frosty. </p>

<p> <strong>Who - dead or alive - would you most like to meet?</strong> </p>

<p> Buddy Rich, so he could give me drum lessons. </p>

<p> <strong>Who would you most like to slap in the face?</strong> </p>

<p> People who don’t tip at full-service restaurants. Fortunately I’m no longer doing that for work, but I have a ton of stories to tell. To those of you who do wait tables, major props for having more patience than me. </p>

<p> <strong>What song do you wish you had written?</strong> </p>

<p> “I’d Have You Anytime” by George Harrison </p>

<p> <strong>Elvis Costello or Elvis Presley?</strong> </p>

<p> I dig Costello, but I can’t deny Presley’s influence. Presley knew you couldn’t ROCK without the ROLL, and that all starts with making the ladies shake hip. </p>

<p> <strong>LP, CD or MP3?</strong> </p>

<p> 8-track tape. </p>

<p> <strong>If you could start one trend, what would it be?</strong> </p>

<p> Erik Estrada sunglasses. </p>

<p> <strong>If you could end one trend, what would it be?</strong> </p>

<p> Sadomasochism. </p>

<p> <strong>With whom would you most like to play a game of spin the bottle?</strong> </p>

<p> Stacey from The Bridges. She’s a fox, and I have a bit of a crush. Spin the bottle of course comes after the following: dinner at Alfredo’s, then chocolate fondue at home, capped off by a few glasses of wine. Stacey, call me.- </p>
