Seismic Rad-Libs: Damien Goyenechea of Panama Gold

If you’re not aware of Panama Gold, well then your missing a good time. Damien is busy working on Panama Gold’s new EP, his side Project Clucks EP, and also a EP by Zoe Wick. SO when I asked him if he wanted to do a Rad-Lib, I was surprised he jumped at the chance. If you’re looking for a well rounded bill this evening, then this is a show you want to check out. Make sure you get there early, cause Eastern Grips and a band I have high hopes for called Freighms will be getting this party started at The Tractor.

My ultimate fantasy would be: to conduct a 40+ piece orchestra.. Gustavo
Dudamel is my recent hero, he put the Rock-n-Roll back into classical music.

Dont ever touch: me when I’m sculpting my facial hair. Manscaping is an
art form, one slip up and it all falls apart.

My last supper would consist of:  Carne asada tacos with cilantro and lime,
tortilla soup, a bucket of coronas, and valium ice cream. (hey its my last
meal!)

My biggest obsession is:  recording music. It sounds like an easy thing to
do, but It’s not..  I’ve taken years off of my life;  obsessing over drum
sounds and vocal takes, while chain-smoking and God knows what else.. I’ve
recently learned that balance and patience go a long way.. .

The Truth is that: I’ve never really been comfortable in my own skin.  I
used to wish that I was black.  Now I’m finding that I am Jewish at heart.
I’m trying to get Panama Gold-stein to convert with me.

Halloween is: the shizz. Love dressin up, gettin into character, blaming
everything you do on Halloween on said character.  Then waking up and
staying in character until someone tells you its a problem.

I can’t believe that: Sub Pop hasn’t signed Ravenna Woods yet.  They’re by
far the most interesting band in town, and have been making waves for over a
year. It seems that SP would rather sign a french-pop-disco-duo than 3
badass folk-punks rockin’ in their own backyard.

Crabs are: tasty little creatures… They are secondary to Lobster in the
culinary sphere, but still damn delicious.

Rock out with your: shishkabob kraut. I don’t know, I say rock out no matter
what. In the grocery store if you hear some Cyndi Lauper jammin, do a little
side swoop, tap on some cereal boxes, throw something at the produce guy.
People seem a little wound up and detached these days.  The rock lives in
all of us, it’s just a matter of letting it take control. Let your guard
down, you’ll be happy you did.
