I'm the one in the middle.
What's your real name (first name, or whatever you want to give)?
Nikki Edwards
Male or female?
Female
How old are you?
23
Where are you from?
Collingswood, New Jersey, USA... it's right across the river from Philadelphia.
What do you do for a living?
I'm a vampire at Kohl's Department Store.
What are some of your hobbies?
Now that I'm working, I no longer have hobbies because I HAVE NO FREAKING LIFE.
Name one song that describes you or your life?
Obviously one song can't possibly describe me fully, but my views on the world are summed up pretty well in "Imagine" by John Lennon.
Favorite musicians/bands?
Our Lady Peace, (duh
), Silverchair, Oasis, and a lot more that I don't feel like naming.
OK, I'll name a couple... Jeff Buckley, Greenwheel, Maroon 5, Chantal Kreviazuk, The Beatles, Weezer, Green Day, Beck, Natalie Imbruglia, Sarah Slean, OK Go, Jamiroquai, yeah, that's it for now.
Which OLP song means the most to you?
Thief.
Favorite OLP album?
All of them... I used to have ratings, but they kept changing, so now, I've just decided I can't pick. So there!
*raspberries*
Favorite OLP moment? (like a dream, story, concert experience, meeting the band, etc...)
Hanging out with Jeremy for two and a half hours at Villanova University on 11-23-02... or maybe Steve putting me on the guestlist at the same concert... and talking to Steve at that concert for a while. Although, the concert itself might be my favorite moment. OK, that day just rocked. The whole day. I know that's not a moment, but I don't care.
My answer is November 23, 2002. Hah!
Oh, or in fall 2003 when me, Melissa, Matt, and Nam ran into Jer randomly at an HMV in Toronto.
That was way too weird.
Aaaaand, of course, when Duncan showed up at our hotel room during the UCMMU (Ultimate ClumsyMonkey Meetup) and played us some unreleased OLPness from his iPod... the fact that he would take the time out of his day to do that for some fans is just so incredibly cool. Ahhh, I love OLP. <3
The club show in Toronto at the Drake Hotel on July 29, 2005 was awesome, too. The fact that so many people from the CM and such made it into that little show was great. We had a fantastic time.
Being literally 2 feet in front of Raine for the whole concert didn't hurt the experience, either.
... yeah, I was gonna add more... but you know what? This section's getting ridiculously long.
