Trick question - Mosh pits are still a very relevant thing. It's a vulgar display of power (see what I did there), but with camaraderie and rules. If you you punch, kick or hurt anyone, you are just an ass. – Ciscos, Guitar

What else could the letters EDM stand for? Ecstatic Drugs, Man

How many people in your agency or office play an instrument? Why aren’t they with you onstage? No comment.
How is a client call like attending a music festival? (You know, crowd too big, people elbowing to get in front, happens over two weekends…) Lots of noise with very little substance until the end of the call.

Have you ever had to choose between two favorite bands who were on at the same time? What was were your criteria? Do you use that same criteria in your agency life? Follow your stomach. Everyday, when I go to lunch and have to choose between the old person group and the young person group.

If you could be any animal, would it be the muppet drummer? No, definitely a bear with chainsaw arms.

Whose Spotify playlist would you rather hear: Kid Rock or Kid Cudi? Kid Rock – American Badass
Are you old enough to remember mosh pits? Can you tell me what a mosh was? Mosh comes from “Nosh” – which is the Yiddish word for “eating” or “hungry”. A mosh pit resembles a traditional dance called “the hora” that is done at bar mitzvahs and jewish weddings. As the dance ends, attendees then “nosh” (eat the meal). At the Rainbow Theatre, London, on December 31, 1977, the Ramones recorded their live record “It’s Alive”. In between songs, Joey Ramone (who was Jewish) can be heard advising the crowd of rowdy punks “Ay youse guys, you gotta be careful in the nosh pit”. On the recording it sounds like “mosh pit”.

How is a client call like attending a music festival? (You know, crowd too big, people elbowing to get in front, happens over two weekends…) The only way to be heard is to shout as loud as possibly and interrupt whomever is talking. Also the copious amounts of alcohol required to enjoy it.

Tits, bits and pits. Discuss. The trick to all three is to let them breathe. And if you don’t mind your pits you’ll never see anyone’s tits and bits.
Who ripped the holes in your jeans, you or someone in China? Holes should be earned, not purchased.
Has a guitar ever gotten you laid? What is the best brand of guitar for getting one laid? Asking for a friend. The best guitar to get you laid is the one you can actually play.

Whose Spotify playlist would you rather hear:
Kim Jong-un’s or Jared Kushner’s? No.
Kid Rock or Kid Cudi? Kid Cudi is a musician, Kid Rock is like the human version of a cigarette butt floating in an above ground pool. So Kid Cudi.

It’s been 10 years. Is it okay that we are still leaving Britney alone? I sort of don’t think we ever should have in the first place.
