Famous When Dead Interview

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

Though I may not write as much as Angelo, you can rest assured that I absolutely love Famous When Dead.

Famous When Dead has such a beautiful style and amazing subject matter that even the biggest stick in the mud will crumple into a gooey little pile of happiness.

Check out our interview here!

So I Havn’t Blogged In Awhile, You Wanna Fight About It?

Monday, December 24th, 2007

A bunch of things have been happening, most notably a few new interviews and a new youtube segment called “Angelo Answers”, starring your’s truly.

Firstly we’ve got our latest interview: Strawfoot, a hardcore country, folk band comprised of local St. Louisans. They’re good enough to be famous but smart enough not to. I personally love their music (so they have to be good because I’m extremely picky), and those words of praise have nothing to do with the VIP passes they’ve given us (The Crankies can’t be bribed, despite how poor we are). I advise anyone who likes a little soul in their country, a little punk in their folk, and a little fly in their soup to check out Strawfoot’s interview, their myspace page, and see them in concert at some point (you might even bump into one of us!).

As for “Angelo Answers” (We originally wanted it to be “Ask Angelo” but the domain was already owned by some gay Italian guy giving relationship advice for 9.99$ a minute): It’s basically just me answering random questions anyone sends me (the first one is from our overlord David on chemicals in our food). If I feel like researching it and giving an in-depth answer I will, otherwise I’ll take what I know and wing it when I don’t while mixing in some jokes. No matter what I decide I am sure you’ll come away more enlightened and more star-struck with the wonder, the beauty, and the insanity that is I, Angelo S.

Until next time Crankies: At ease!
