Sonic Babe Of The Month - October 2006

Name: Rachelle Ramm
From: Berkeley, CA.

What made you get into Rock N' Roll?

Being born into a family that loves Rock N Roll. It's unavoidable & I'm lucky! : ) I've been exposed my whole life and I love it! My family are avid concert goers and have been influenced by many artists.

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

The Bangles, at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley. I saw them performing live, got goose bumps and said "I could do that". It was very inspirational, I hung out after the show and got their autographs. I was one excited 12 year old!

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

OUCH! Tough very tough, Mikey! These are on my mind now:

* Alice N Chains, All of them!
* STP, Core & Purple
* Metallica, the Black Album and many Old Skool songs before!
* Soundgarden, A-Sides, Superunkown, Badmotorfinger
* Audioslave
* The Doors, 2 box set
* Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon
* Foo Fighters, The Colour and the Shape
* GNR, Appetite
* Heart, Many of them
* Nirvana, All
* The Smashing Pumpkins, All
* Incubus, Make Yourself

Who are your five favorite bands?

Again, damn near impossible to nail it. On my mind today : )

Metallica, Soundgarden, The Doors, Velvet Revolver, Audioslave

What is your all time favorite song and why?

Fade to Black, Metallica. It's an emotional roller coaster with Kick Ass guitars!

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

Hell Yes! My voice ; ) & I play guitar. The first since the day I could hear music, the guitar for about 5 years. I am a Solo Artist and I work with many different talented musicians to record and perform live. The best inspiration and guitar player/composer I work with is Hank Shermann of Mercyful Fate.

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

The Doors, Jim Morrison had an energy most humans can never touch. Same with Jimi Hendrix, the way he plaid that guitar is out of this world, along with the charisma in his voice. Ok and Janis Joplin with her soulful unique voice. They simply had magic! No one does today.

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

Metallica, Alice N Chains, Soundgarden

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

1) Is Rock N Roll meant to be Mainstream? hmmm, I think it has an edge because not everybody and their mother likes the same boring thing.

2) There is to much copying and lack of being Unique in order to become Legendary. Or if it's out there the industry won't give it a chance.

What do you think rock n roll is missing today?

FREEDOM, there are to many restrictions. People Need to Open their Minds! The Biz. get's stuck in a channel and it begins to sound the same. Fear of profit makes some artists stay in boundaries of what they create and the industries guidelines of what sells can be narrow. Not enough chances are taken these days. We need daring souls with some Balls!

What is your definition rock n' roll?

Freedom, Fun, A Big Party, Wildness, the time to let down your guard, Rebellion, Passion, Belief, Loud Music, Expressions flying in the air that influence people, Feelings everyone can relate to, Sex, Love, Hate, Fear, War, & Good times!!!

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

I love Beer! Especially, Belgian Beer! I'd also take a shot of Silver Patron Tequila!

Any last words or thoughts about rock n roll?

Create Music with no fear, let it flow from your heart n soul and share it!!!! & TURN IT UP LOUD!!!!!
