Friday Showstravaganza:: The Most Serene Republic, Myles Deck & Cuban Assassins

Oh hey, Arts & Crafts recording artists The Most Serene Republic are in town tonight at the Paragon, and it just so happens we did one of our patented Five Funky Story random Q&A's with them! Well then, let's get to it:

Name: Adrian
Band: The Most Serene Republic
Web: www.themostserenerepublic.ca

1. Would it be worth all the royalties to have to have your name attached to the 'Mambo Number 5?'

Yes. Of Course.

2. What was the last book you read?

Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman

3. If you worked as the maitre d' at a fancy restaurant, and Phil Collins came in wearing only a t-shirt, would you let him sit down?

No, I would ask him to put on pants or leave.

4. Patio Lanterns, Go For Soda, or WFT does that mean?

?

5. Have you ever played a keytar?

No.

...what, we're back already? That was quick, but it was fun and, uhhhh, enlightening, right? Not so much really, but oh well, TMSR are clearly a band of (very) few words, but I bet they'll have more than a few tight-panted asses shaking tonight at the Paragon, as will the two local outfits that are joining them: Mardeen and The First Aid Kit (these guys especially, I've only seen them live once briefly, but they've been a fav for a while now). So you're likely in-store for a good time if you're venturing out to the Paragon tonight, but that Myles Deck/Cuban Assassins split 7" release show at Gus' could very well be just as much bang for your buck I'd say.
