Haha, at least you have traveled to another country before. I have technically traveled overseas as well, but it was only to go to Tasmania (which is a state of Australia).  I like your choices of Ireland, Iceland and Scandinavia. They are countries I would like to go to as well. What did you think of Bermuda? If the weather is nice, it is beautiful. The beaches have pink sand and clear water. I was there once through a tropical storm and it was nasty, especially in a stand alone hotel room on a big hill. In general it is very hilly. I'm not a huge fan of the culture though it is interesting to experience. It's very stuffy British, you have to dress up, it's quite formal in a lot of restaurants. I think I'd rather go on a cruise ship. What's your favourite virtual assistant? Don't use one

My order hasn’t arrived but I’m looking forward to checking it out. What is your favourite food/drink?

Cookies, ice cream, sushi, mangos, white pizza, cinnamon buns, frosting, apples, chai tea.... Yes I am a desserts person. I'm really fond of cinnamon, maple and coconut flavors. I actually love coffee to the point of verging on an addiction, so I stopped drinking it every morning. But it's still a fave. I don't drink but I really love one beer. It's grapefruit flavor.

Just out of curiosity, what is your opinion on Grunge and '90s alt-rock? I just thought I would ask as I know you're a fan of '70s and '80s rock, but they're stark contrasts to Grunge/alt-rock.

Honestly it's nothing I listen to much and I could probably better give my opinion on specific songs. As a movement I'm fairly indifferent. I don't remember it so it's hard for me to necessarily view it as minimal or in rebellion to excess, and instead just as its own unique sound and style. Therefore, grunge doesn't really hold a lot of societal meaning for me, and ends up a little unexciting by comparison. Were people hardcore partying yesterday when the Patriots won the super bowl? Not as much as they used to, or as when the Red Sox win. And it was a 60 degree day too, I saw people in bathing suits. It's just so frequent now that it's becoming expected, people didn't even post as much about it online. I've only seen champions merch at Lids. It's no longer an event.

I suppose if you didn't actually grow up when Grunge/alt-rock was in the mainstream or if you weren't introduced to it at all by your parents, the genre wouldn't really hold much weight to someone. My Gen X parents were/are right into it, so me listening to bands such as Pearl Jam, Live, Soundgarden etc. when I was little really got me interested into the genre as I became older.

Yeah my parents played very little non-Disney 90's music when I was growing up. Maybe "One Headlight" and "Kiss Me". Oh and don't forget Shania Twain! A little Brooks and Dunn! My mom liked No Doubt but that's all I can really think of. Then i heard some early 00's rock a la Blink 182 from my brother and his friends, so the 90's are an era in rock skipped on me. I was probably 15 before I even knew what Nirvana sounded like. Is it embarrassing I've been to not one, but two Hanson concerts?! ETA: HOW COULD I FORGET THE MACARENA?!? Always had that going...

It's interesting to hear that your parents played a lot of Disney music while you were growing up. I've generally never been a fan of Disney's songs/movies, so my parents were spared from having to listen to them.  What were some of your favourite Disney songs? Yep. It's bad enough going to one Hanson concert, let alone two! I couldn't imagine a Hanson concert being particularly thrilling. Unless someone was an absolute die-hard fan of their music, everyone would only know the one song ("MMMBop"), that's it.

I've generally never been a fan of Disney's songs/movies, so my parents were spared from having to listen to them. What were some of your favourite Disney songs? When I was little we had a sleeve in our Jeep of Disney cds, Lion King probably having been my favorite. Probably "I Just Can't Wait to be King" back then. I got the biggest kick in Toy Story when they're in the van and they're listening to Hakuna Matata with the little blonde girl in the carseat because it looked just like us. We also had Aladdin, though I got to be a bigger fan as I got older. I wanna say there was Little Mermaid and also a mix, as well as a Nickelodeon cassette. I actually tended to watch the sing-along videos, which featured original and more obscure songs, at the time. I really didn't sit through full Disney movies until elementary school. In my defense they were free concerts!! Actually they aren't a bad band, especially now that they're adults and experienced. Taylor doesn't have the most distinct voice but he's on point live. But you're right, nobody except for the few thirty-year-old fangirls knew anything but "MMMBop". I've only seen The Village People once!!!!!
