FILL IN THE BLANK: IF I WASN'T A MUSICIAN, I'D BE ____________.
HSH: An out-of-work writer.
WHAT'S THE BEST MOVIE YOU'VE SEEN THIS YEAR?
HSH: Buena Vista Social Club.
IF SOMEONE OFFERED YOU THE CHANCE TO RIDE ALONG ON THE SPACE SHUTTLE, WOULD YOU GO?
HSH: I probably would, but it depends how long we would be gone for. I get homesick very easily.
NAME A MAGAZINE THAT YOU'D NEVER EVER BUY, BUT WILL ALWAYS READ IF YOU FIND A COPY LYING AROUND.
HSH: Sassy.
IF YOU CAME OUT ON STAGE ONE EVENING AND NOBODY IN THE AUDIENCE HAD ANY TROUSERS ON, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
HSH: I guess I would take my pants off too. I wouldn't want the audience to
feel alienated.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR PRESENT RECORD LABEL(S)? WHAT DO THEY DO THAT KEEPS YOU HAPPY?
HSH: Being a completely unknown artist, I am not signed exclusively with anyone.
However, I am pretty happy with the labels I have worked with thus far
(motorway, clover, AIP, etc.). The fact that they even want to invest money
in my music is enough to keep me happy.

HSH: Mod Lang Records in Berkeley, CA.
IF YOU COULD ERADICATE ONE SLANG TERM OR IRRITATING CATCH PHRASE FROM THE WORLD'S VOCABULARY, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
HSH: Sweet, Clutch, and/or Nectar.

HSH: I would much rather be able to fly. I just think being able to fly would
be the greatest gift.
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION?
HSH: I think the concept of public transportation is a good one. However, the
state of public transit in most states is horrible. It should be cleaner,
faster and free.
NAME A COUNTRY YOU'D LOVE TO VISIT, BUT COULD NEVER LIVE IN. EXPLAIN WHY.
HSH: I would love to visit Japan because I think the Japanese culture is very
interesting. However, I don't think I would be able to function for a long
period of time in such a busy place.
GIVEN THE WIDE RANGE OF CURRENCY VALUATIONS AMONG MEMBERS OF THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY, CAN THE EURO EVER BE TRULY VIABLE?
HSH: Jesus, I don't know. For the sake of giving an answer, I will say "sure
why not."
