My favorite ice cream is cookies 'n cream.

some of my favourite bands:

Sonic Youth -
band that opened my music taste up. when i first heard Daydream Nation, i really couldn't get into it. but coming back to it a few months later, it really showed me what music can do. it inspired me, someday i hope to reach the greatness value of DN in my own musical pursuits.

King Crimson -
they've created 3 of my favourite records (Red, Larks Tongues, Discipline). Robert Fripp is such a breathtaking guitarist, every riff is completely unique. my favourite line-up is the one with Levin and Belew but i've always thought that Red is their best record. i couldn't really name too many good things about them, other than they're a band i could listen to nonstop for days and usually put out awesome to classic records.

Big Black/Shellac -
i'm putting them together because i don't like the individual bands THAT MUCH but as a collective Steve's projects have been some of the most interesting music i've ever listened to. i first heard Songs About Fucking when i was 13 and i could really relate to it as i had just started high school and was terribly pissed off at everything ("I would like to wrap your hair, round your head like a noose" and other lines described perfectly what i thought about my peers). Shellac is continuation of that fucked up anger, except it feels more restrained, expressing anger and frustration through different forms of sound. two amazing bands, individually they are not technically one of my favourites, but they are definitely a favourite when it comes to mood and enjoyment.

Boris -
never have i seen a band change their sound so much than Boris. every time they change their sound, they seem to keep the quality. Flood is one of my favourite records due to it's sheer i dunno... beauty maybe. while they've not made a lot of CLASSIC AMAZING records, they are consistently solid and one of my most played artists.

Kayo Dot/maudlin of the Well -
maudlin of the well's Bath is my 2nd favourite album of all time, if i ever were to compile a list of favourite moments in music then that album would fill most of it up. Kayo Dot is on the list as i think they are the most exciting band to come out this decade and hopefully their influence will shine in later years.

My favorite color of the Muni bus pass is blue.

My favourite porn star is Liz Vicious.

my favorite eating position is sitting down

My favorite post of mine so far in this thread is the one about the ice cream.

how?

My favourite T-shirt is red.

Because I like ice cream more than bus passes.

A plethora of Coco Pops.

The coco pop that is a little down and right of the center that looks like a screaming face is my favorite of that plethora.

Navy is a jagger favourite.

This rascal This Is Not Here strikes me as a younger version of Glice. Still with plenty of time to hone his caustic remarks and grade A language skills.

My favorite chocolate is probably Milka

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with string,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Cream coloured ponies and crisp apple strudel,
Watching pornography and playing with my doodle,
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Girls in white dresses and blue satin sashes,
Paying a hooker to give me a hundred lashes,
Silver white win-ters that melt into spring,
These are a few of my favorite things,

When the dog bites,
When the bee stings,
When I'm feeling sad,
I simply remember my favorite things,
And then I don't feel, so bad....

favorite film by a long stretch

My fave rock album of all time

And below is one of my fave all-time jazz albums:

Although I'm a much bigger fan of the Bad Seeds, this is certainly in my top ten rock albums of all time. Memories of hearing them on the Peel show and him getting hate mail as a result of playing them!

Don't know this one, but The Birthday Party and Coltrane are on my current pile of repeat play CDs.

RE: COLTRANE
Yep. Gotta love this guy. My cuz has recently put me onto Alice Coltrane. Very nice.

RE: NICK CAVE
Recently there was an exhibition here in Melbourne of a bunch of his personal stuff like pictures, notes, costumes and the like. As I'm walking through, I come across one of his old diaries from the early 80's. In one entry (a Thursday, I believe) all he had written was:

"Hand in Dole form"

At that moment I felt such a powerful connection to this guy...

Pooke - check out "Live In Seattle" - it's an incredible album
Johnny "Magic Fingers" - Man, I envy you living in Melbourne - I love that city :)

my favourite flavour smoothie is acai berries, ginseng and banana with frozen vanilla yoghurt...mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
