Saturday Nine: Hey Soul Sister

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love memes, however, and here is today's meme! 

Saturday 9: Hey, Soul Sister

(because John suggested Train)

If you're not familiar with today's song, you can hear it here.

1) The video was shot on a street corner in Echo Park in central Los Angeles. If you saw a film crew making a video in your neighborhood, would you stop to watch? Or would you just keep walking?

I'd probably stop and watch for a little bit. I'm typically intrigued by how things are made. I admire the creative process and marvel at the mechanics behind that, so, yeah, I can see myself hanging around for a while.

2) The singer says he remembers his girl in every dream he dreams. Do you remember if you dreamed last night?

No, I don't remember what I dreamt last night, but I've been dreaming a lot lately. I'm not so crazy about waking up feeling the lingering feelings I've experienced lately. :(

3) The band Train is from San Francisco. Have you ever visited The City by the Bay?

No, never been, but want to very much! I know this post is about Train, but whenever I think of San Francisco, I think of that Journey song, "Lights".

4) Lead singer Pat Monahan got his start in a Led Zeppelin cover band. Can you name a Led Zeppelin song?

Stairway to Heaven (#duh)

I'm sure I know more but they're a little before my time and I don't know the songs by name.

5) In doing research for this week's Saturday 9, Crazy Sam discovered a publication called Trains, The Magazine of Railroading.What's the last magazine you flipped through? 

I recently have read "Richardson Living", "Poets & Writers", "More" and the "Food Network Magazine".

6) Do you consider yourself a leader or a follower?

I'm both a leader and a follower. There's a time and place to be one or the other. 

7) Scholars tell us that "To be or not to be" is Shakespeare's most quoted line. Give us another one.

Et tu, Brute?

8) How do you listen to music on the go? Car radio? CD changer? iPod/mp3 player? Your phone?

Mostly I listen on the car radio, then my iPod.

9) Are you a convincing liar?

No. (Do you believe me?)
