Ethan Graham:<\/strong> First question, as with all of these, favorite color and why?
\nCaroline Roe:<\/strong> Favorite color is green, because to me it\u2019s kind of a neutral color. A lot of my clothes are green even though I\u2019m not wearing green. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> I\u2019m wearing green.
\nCR:<\/strong> Yeah, the good kind too. I like the darker greens. I\u2019m not going to say anything about nature because that would be cheesy. But green. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> I like green, I have many favorite colors and green is among them. Now to follow up with that, what is your quest?
\nCR:<\/strong> My quest is to find the Holy Grail.<\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> Yes, yes you\u2019re the first one to get that (spins in chair).
\n<\/span>CR:<\/strong> Yeah, that\u2019s my quest. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> Some have talked about what they want to do in life but that\u2019s great.
\nCR:<\/strong> No, the Holy Grail is the ultimate quest. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> When did you first start to like music or when did you start trying to figure out what you liked in music?
\nCR:<\/strong>\u00a0My first memory is listening to the Pixies album “Doolittle.” That\u2019s my first memory because my parents were really into music. I remember in fourth grade we had to do an “all about me” poster and I put Green Day\u2019s American Idiot. I thought that was super badass because everyone else was listening to Radio Disney. I just sort of forced myself to listen to my parents music. Then when I was in middle school when I had the internet, I googled a lot of stuff. I had subscriptions to Spin and Rolling Stone really early and kind of on accident. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong>\u00a0What was the first album you bought with your own money or your parents bought you?
\n<\/span>CR:<\/strong> The first album I bought was Green Day\u2019s “Nimrod,” at Vintage Stock. I\u2019m not sure if my parents really bought me albums since they had so many already. They lived in Seattle during the Grunge period and they were into bands like Axe and Pearl Jam. I think they thought we had enough so they didn\u2019t bother. \u00a0Oh wait, the Powerpuff Girls Soundtrack. They bought me that. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> That might actually answer a question later on but for now, what is an album that has an emotional connection to you or a memory?
\nCR:<\/strong>\u00a0Well, as I said, Pixies’ “Doolittle” was\u00a0my first memory. I just got a Doolittle tattoo today. It\u2019s gotten me through a lot and I can just listen to it over and over. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> What is your favorite band? You can have multiple. I don\u2019t care.
\nCR:<\/strong> Well, favorite classic rock seems like a whole other question than modern stuff, but I\u2019d have to say for Classic Rock, it would be Rush. For modern purposes, I\u2019d have to go with Jeff the Brotherhood or Ty Segall. I like just about anything he puts out.
\n<\/span>
\nEG:<\/strong> Those are some good choices. I am not\u00a0going to judge, yet. Last music related question, what has been one of the best shows you\u2019ve been to recently?
\nCR:<\/strong>\u00a0I saw Rush last summer for the second time. It was their last tour so it was emotional. A few years ago, I saw the Flaming Lips at Liberty Hall and it was insane. They did the whole “walking in the ball”\u00a0act and\u00a0it was a really joyous show. Oh and Thunderbolt. I saw them in the spring. They too\u00a0were incredibly insane. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong>\u00a0Now it\u2019s time to get into the more fun questions, the ones I really enjoy. \u00a0What is your favorite childhood cartoon?
\nCR:<\/strong> PowerPuff Girls. <\/span>
\nEG:<\/strong> My guess was correct. Any particular reason?
\nCR:<\/strong> I thought they were pretty badass. I just wanted to be Buttercup. It was a really dark cartoon and there was probably a lot of subliminal things that only parents would have got. Like the red guy, Him.
\n<\/span>EG:<\/strong> You have seen that they\u2019re bringing it back right?
\nCR:<\/strong> Yeah, I\u2019m stoked. <\/span>
\n
\nEG:<\/strong> So last question, which is the only one I really judge people on to be honest; who is your favorite superhero and why?
\nCR:<\/strong> Favorite superhero? Now I\u2019m a little self conscious about this one. <\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> I did just put a lot of pressure on that one.
\n<\/span>CR:<\/strong> I\u2019m going to say Captain America, because he\u2019s really accessible and he\u2019s all-american. That\u2019s his whole thing. Oh, and he\u2019s really really cute in the movies. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nEG:<\/strong> All right. I\u2019ll give you that.
\nCR:<\/strong> What was the right answer?
\n<\/span>EG:<\/strong>\u00a0There is no right answer. The only answer that matters to me is the reason, because someone could say, “I like Batman, because he\u2019s Batman.” That\u2019s not exactly an answer, if you know what I mean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Off the Mic Caroline Roe DJ Name: Doesn\u2019t need one DJ Shift: 3-6pm Saturday Major: Double Majoring in English and Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies Minor: NA Major KJHK Contributions: Spring 2015 DJ Rotation 6-9am on Sunday and Music staff Favorite Color: Green Favorite Band: Classic Rock: Rush \u00a0Modern: Jeff the Brotherhood, Ty Segall Hobbies: Plays guitar and bass, listens to music Ethan Graham: First question, as with all of these, favorite color and why?
