What kind of impact has 2 left on your life?

UGHH IMPOSSIBLE QUESTION…hmm…All of Ask me Anything

“And I’m spending the time, wasting your time”

Oh you know that one time at woodstock…was in the front row. Cried when he played star spangled banner…while smoking a blunt. Yeah so basically 0 times.
What is your favourite song by 6?

When did you first get into five?
I’ve been learning guitar since I was six and my old guitar teacher would teach me all these classic rock songs, one of them being purple haze, but I wasn’t really aware of how brilliant the musician behind the song was. During the summer in grade 8 I started looking up all the musicians behind the songs he had taught me and that’s how Jimi came into my life.
What is your favourite song by 4?
Ahh this is killing me…I’ll just go with the classics Reptilia and Someday.
What is a good memory concerning 1?
There was this almost good memory of me going to see them live, but then the fact that it wasn’t an all ages concert got in the way of that… but just listening to them on long drives, while studying for finals, or when i’m feeling all angsty are pretty good memories :)
Is there a song by 2 that makes you sad?
I’m pretty sure most would say this, but…RUBEHHHHH
