I'm interviewing Dixie Dave later today (hopefully; you never know about this things 100% until they happen). Anyone have any questions they'd like to see asked?

You gotta ask about the toe. These stories always start out with the individual cleaning their gun. Seriously? C’mon.

Nyquil. What’s the deal?

Is he a tattoo artist? I thought I heard that somewhere. If so, what’s the name of the shop?

Is the band cursed?

jeez, y'all, i know the answers to most of those questions.

i.e. cough syrup sooths the ragged throat (and adds bonus chems),
it's a head shop, but seems to mostly sell sex toys,
march 1st,
etc.

ask something that leaves room for tangents, like, 'so, what have you learned in the last two years?' or 'just how kickass is this brief 'at a loss' era buzzov*en reunion going to be, and why?'

A couple years back, they were scheduled to play Tufts University instead of one of the local clubs. What? Why? And huh?

(The show, if I remember correctly, was eventually cancelled)

What celebrities has he seen at Weedeater shows?

Also, what JKFlesh said.

Ask Dixie if he can still skate even with the missing big toe.

Is there any dream project/album/band that you've always wanted to do but for whatever reason were unable to go through with?

OR

Is there any project that you've worked on that didn't quite live up to expectations?

What's his favorite Killdozer tape?

And, more importantly, what's his favorite Nazareth tape?

Ask him if he pays attention to idiots online.

and/or if he's read any good music blogs/sites in recent history. I'm sure there's a way to approach that so it doesn't sound like forcing a compliment.

"Expressions" = Best head shop in NC. Mostly pipes and vaporizors...not sex toys that I remember. got the killerest vaporizer there.. if your ever around Cape Fear, NC you have to make a stop - its right on your way in/out of town to I-40/I-95 N/S. The first thing we were told was to go across the street to the pet store and get an extra long fishtank hose for van use... Best customer service ever!!!

People from the stoner/sludge community often view Weedeater as legends. Are there any bands in the current scene that you think have the potential to be a "Weedeater" unto the upcoming generation of riff-slingers?

HP, did your interview occur?

If not, was the excuse given "Sorry, man, I shot off my other toe"?

No excuse given, actually, just a goofy drunken whistle-doo-wop thing on an outgoing voicemail message. Will need to reschedule, hopefully for this coming week.

Interview happened just a bit ago. Should be online sometime in the next week or two. Thanks all for the questions.
