Sonic Babe Of The Month - July 2006

Name: Chasing Monroe

What made you get into Rock N' Roll?

I'd have to say my older brothers showed me the way to long hair musicians, and guitar solos from hell! Rush, Iron Maiden, Queensryche, you name it... I could recite every lyric from any album,..(probably still could today). I didn't know any other music ..esp. No boy bands!

What was your first rock concert and what was the experience like for you?

X at the Hollywood Palladium on Sat. Feb 28 1998. My boss from Domino's Pizza bought the tickets, I drove while he was doing other things to prepare for the show..(heh).. I had a fake I.D. Also that night open my eyes to another world. Kamikaze's and the Famous Rainbow Room. Ahh good times.

What is your five all time favorite albums (CDs)?

In no order...
Faith No More - The Real Thing
Tool - Aenima or Undertow...can't decide.
The Doors - Waiting for the sun
Deftones - Around the Fur
The Killers - Every song I'm sorry to say Rocks!

Who are your five favorite bands?

Once again no order...
Sublime
Faith No More
Led Zeppelin
Radiohead
Rush

What is your all time favorite song and why?

Romeo Void - "Never Say Never" Because walking around repeating these lyrics "I might like you better if we slept together - But there's something in your eyes that says maybe that's never say never" Is always Classic.

Do you play an instrument? If so, what & how long? Also are you in a band, who is it?

Drums. Not that great, but I wanted to follow in my older brothers footsteps really bad. He was in high school band, and all the drummers were the "cool kids". I would of gone onto high school band, but I hated the band teacher.

If you can go back in time, who would you like to have seen perform live?

Wow, that's a hard one, first I'd have to say...
1. Sublime. Bradly's voice,carries me away.
2. The Doors. Jim Morrison, timeless lyrics, radical beats.
3. Pink Floyd. The light shows...of course.

If you could put the ultimate rock show together with three bands, who would it be?

Radiohead
Bowie
Nirvana

Do you think there's any bands out today can make rock n' roll big in the mainstream again?

I'd have to say "Wolfmother". I saw them At the Henry Fonda. I've read they have "A passion for creative expression". Also thy've been getting fantastic reviews. Also yes they sound like Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin, I love it! They can do it, They just have to keep being themselves and play even harder with their instruments, and vocals.

What do you think rock n' roll is missing today?

Well different bands have different styles, new ages, younger audience. The media is so saturated and the cost of ticket sales aren't like they used to be. No Eric Clapton's, No Doors, We need to go back to the roots.

What is your definition rock n' roll?

Generic terms for the range of different styles. So many styles, it's kinda an overload.

What is your choice of poison (drink) while enjoying rock n' roll?

When I did drink it was New Castle and Jagger. Now I don't drink, I stick to Non-Alcoholic brews. Makes ya pee a lot, but hey, I can drive home Safely!

Any last words or thoughts about rock n roll?

Rock and Roll came from Black Rhythm and blues with a white twist. Rock and Roll should be shared, why not? We all live on this earth, let's rock out much as we can, together!
