if you don't know, Super 31 is a shoegazer/moody-pop band.  their first ep "Acceleration" is still something I listen to today.  "Dragonfly" on it is one of my favorite love songs.  This interview was conducted by e-mail when email was a new technology.

Robert -- check to see if his feet are still on.

Quinn -- checks to see if his hair has fallen out

QRD -- do you have any funny tour stories?

Kelly -- playing at the Purple Onion in San Francisco where the owner looked like Crispin Glover.  Frank's amp blew up & Brian's bass pedal broke & hit him in the face.  Brian threw his drum sticks in the air & hit me in the head & I thought it was someone from the audience.  Sonic Boom offered to share day-old calimari with Robert, "eh Robert, would ya like some squid, mate?"

QRD -- when are you going to have another release?

Kelly -- another ep is due out in a couple months, a seven inch.  hopefully a full length by the end of the summer.

QRD -- what kinds of watches do you wear?

Kelly -- I am a proud owner of the limited edition fossil "grunge rocker" watch.  Frank & Quinn don't wear watches.  Brian wears a watch that doesn't work.  Robert wears a watch that is worth more than all the money he has in the bank.

Kelly -- we've done "Heroin" by the Velvet Underground, "Revolution" by Spacemen 3, & we do great Motorhead impersonations.
