Andrea, 33, Williamsburg. Photo by Edwina HayIn the first band, Cellular Chaos, the bassist played with a folding chair. What's the craziest thing you've ever seen somebody play an instrument with?
Tony Conrad takes the cake, man. He's fucking an amazing avant-garde noise musician who's been teaching avant-garde noise music in Buffalo for over a decade. He's played everything from saws to, like—everything. I've seen him play pretty fucked up violin things, and that's pretty mind-blowing. Tony Conrad is amazing! I love his video artwork.Do you know this woman who plays dry ice? She's playing under the name Liquid State Bypass.
Oh Cool! I didn't know about her. Because she's like, literally bypassing the liquid state, yeah!What do you like best about Quintron?
I first heard Mr. Quintron's music when we were tiling a floor in Chicago, and then I opened for him a few times, which were the two most important shows of my whole life. I think there's maybe nobody finer. I'm in a group called the Love Loves. Any situation that involves props, and puppets, and danceable rock disco is totally my jam.When you left the house today, were you thinking "Leonardo DiCaprio in Basketball Diaries?"
You know, I wore a Leonardo DiCaprio shirt my first year in Williamsburg, because back then I looked so much like him. But it got all fucked up, and I'm over that now. We do have the same chicken pox scars. But my brother looks a lot more like him.See the gallery from the show over at one our favorite music sites, Impose.@arispool
