Hiatus Friday Five

It's that time of week, and even though I am officially on hiatus from work, I've wealesed my way to a computer and am prepared to my Five (not so) Random Questions:

Music Does In Fact Make The World Go Round

1) Name a Band That Deserves to Run the World: Does it Have to be a band? Or can it just be one person. 'Cause if I could pick one guy, it would be David Bowie. But if it was going to be a entire band, I'd probably go with either Broken Social Scene (minus all the in-fighting) or all the members of the Police.

2) If You Could Remove a Band From Music History it would be: Simple Plan. I mean, I know it might be better to go back and stop the root of a problem by chopping off some band that was the originator of it being okay to suck and still make millions, but no matter where my brain goes, it always ends up back at a glaring tacky super bright ugly ass obnoxious yellow neon sign that says "Simple Plan". Someone please make their career end.

3) You Have the Option to Become a Member of a Band. Skills aside, Who would you join? Wow. So I have the option to become a Contributing member of one of my fave bands? That, my good friend, is pretty close to Heaven for me...So who would it be? Who consistently puts out good music and continues to make it seem like I might want to spend lots and lots of time with them? Wow. Um...I would say Broken Social Scene except (yes, I said it already) for all the in-fighting. And yes I'm more than aware that if I chose them I would get to hang out with Emily Haines, but maybe it's best if I just get to keep the dream alive and not ruin it with reality. So I'm going to say Zero 7. They continue to put out excellent records and they seem pretty open to trying new things. And they travel alot. And they kinda kick ass, so.....
Honourable mention: MSTRKRFT. Like the Canadian Zero 7. And sometimes they hang out with Emily Haines.

4) Band on Band Arena Brawl. Name the Two Bands: Simple Plan and the Sex Pistols. 'Cause I would pay to see Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicous kick the crap out of Simple Plan.

5) You can name Two Rockstar Godparents to Your Children. One Male, One Female: Well, I would have picked David Bowie, but I'll probably outlive him. So I'm basing this on who could care for my kids if I died and had no family. And I want my kids to have options, so I'm gonna pick Alanis Morrisette and Mos Def. Mainly 'cause I think they are both upstanding individuals and Mos Def is playing in the background.

And that's it!

On another note, a while back i made a list of five couples I thought rocked celebrity-dom....I competely left out the best couple ever to grace Hollywood, Rhea Perlman and Danny DeVito. Married 25 years, they are a pillar of everything Not Hollywood And Successful. Word!
