A little about your show: WMHB's first a cappella show, started this year as what will hopefully be a fixture of the station's programming in years to come.
Music you're playing before heading out on the weekend?
KRIS: For me that just means sitting at the Info Desk, so probably a random mix of Top 40 pop rock.
PAT: J-5.
If you were going into battle, what song would you play?
KRIS: Either the theme from some epic war movie or a favorite video game, or Chris Cornell's "You Know My Name," from Casino Royale.
PAT: "The Ballad of Cedric Fruvous" by Moxy Fruvous.
Guilty pleasure album?
KRIS: I used to REALLY like the Corrs. I'm not sure why. I mean, they're alright, but if you know me, you're probably raising an eyebrow right about now.
PAT: So many to choose from...Tragic Kingdom- No Doubt.
Best album for a road trip with friends?
KRIS: With our friends? Impossible to answer. With just us and a couple of specific others, probably a very long, very carefully chosen mix of a cappella favorites.
PAT: Turn the Radio Off- Reel Big Fish.
What should be the current billboard number one track today?
KRIS: Whatever's been most recently released from The Hush Sound's Goodbye Blues.
PAT: "Don't Stop Believing" by Journey.
All around favorite album?
KRIS: Don't really have one.
PAT: This is impossible..."Stars at Saint Andrea" - Devics.
Best singing in the shower album?
KRIS: I used to hum instrumental TV show themes in the shower, but now I just talk to myself.
PAT: Californication- Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Pre 1990s that you would bring back today?
KRIS: I'd resurrect Stan Rogers.
PAT: Queen.
Album you put on while doing homework or instead of doing homework?
KRIS: This week, UMaine Renaissance's Illuminate or Off the Beat's The Empty Set.
PAT: "The Hours Score" Phillip Glass.
Best album after a tough break up?
KRIS: It's slightly embarrassing to admit this, but I wouldn't know.
PAT: Turn Off the Radio by Reel Big Fish.
If there were to be an album titled after your life, what would you call it?
KRIS: Human, All Too Human (guess the philosopher!).
PAT: Bedlam.
If not in the mood for music, what's the next best thing?
KRIS: If it has superheroes...
PAT: Sleeping.
