  • Austin Visit and Interview with Austin Moore 2018

    I took a trip to Austin to check out SXSW and promote my latest podcast episodes and published books. I managed to run into an old friend the actor, singer, bartender, and guitarist Austin Moore on my visit to Austin, TX in 2018.

    Austin says that he enjoys working bartending and door work at Stubbs BBQ as much as his music guitar work. He has worked as a bartender in many clubs including the famous Elysium Austin Club. I am the girl on his left in the photo below. He has worked many computer jobs, and was working a dayjob for Facebook in Austin at the time I interviewed him. He still gets a kick out of people recognising him from his acting work in the Austin based movie “Dazed and Confused” that he was in as kid. He likes to decorate his house with spiritual and witch art from around the world. His love of fiction books influenced his song lyrics in later art. Austin’s favorite hobby aside from music is watching movies at the Alamo movie theater in Austin, 5 blocks from his house.

     

     

     

  • Austin visit and Interview with Steve Hall 2018

    I was traveling in my old hometown of Austin, TX in 2018 doing promotion for my latest podcast episodes and published books. I managed to run into my old school friend Steve Hall, and to get an interview. We still remain friends to this day.

    Steve says that he enjoys working with computers, and uses them daily in his office job in home security sales. Steve lives in the United States now, but was originally born overseas in China. This is a fact that contributes to his love of Bruce Lee movies. I am the girl in the right of the photo below with Steve. Steve has done DJ work with many kinds of retro 80s, Synthpop, and electronic music in many cities, but Seattle and Austin are his top favorites. Steve enjoys travel, and goes to yearly Ren-fests in the Texas region. Despite loving night life greatly, he is also a devoted family man, and is single father to a young daughter he watches on weekends. Steve has a large collectable toy, music, and book collection in his house, and his tastes in music are heavily influenced by his love of fiction and Sci Fi books including HR Giger’s Aliens.

    Steve still is actively a DJ and music maker in Austin, TX. See his current playlists at the link:

  • Travel to Austin and Interview with Noble Brown of Save It For The Breakdown

    I was traveling in Austin, TX doing promotion for my latest podcast episodes and my latest published books.  I ran into my friend Noble Brown of the famous Austin Music podcast Save It For The Breakdown available on Podbean. We are still friends to this day, and I managed to get an Interview.

    Noble has fronted dozens of bands over the years, but he is the current frontman for a band called “Black Mercy” after the character which battles Superman. His day job that pays the bills is working with computers, and Noble studied computer programming at UT Austin where he got his University degree. Noble is a fan of old school punk and pop punk, and one of his all time favorites is the Dead Kennedys. I know this because I borrowed his Frankenchrist album shirt once, and forgot to return it which he still bugs me about. I am the girl on Noble’s left in the first photo below. He got into music to promote his love of the vegan lifestyle, and animal rights causes. He is a very enthusiastic collector of comic books, and “Spawn” one of his favorite series. Noble started band work young, but still performs at shows to this day with updates posted to his Instagram and Facebook.

  • Visit to Austin and Halloween Interview with Andrew Steed 2018

    I was traveling in Austin, TX to promote my latest podcast episodes and books. I happened to run into my old friend Andrew Steed, and managed to get some interview questions answered.

    Andrew Steed has been involved in promoting many bands in the Austin music scene. He has traveled to many towns to see live shows across the country. I am the girl on his left in the photo below, and yes that was High School prom we were at together for both Junior and Senior year prom dances. One of the first concerts I ever saw was with Lalapolooza in Dallas. Andrew’s tastes run from old school punk in The Dead Kennedys, Ministry, to pop punk of the more Green Day variety. Andrew’s tastes in music come from his love of fiction book authors including Robert Heinlein,William Seward Burroughs II, and William Gibson.
