Question of the Day: Do you still talk to the Gods n Aliens?

Q: What's up Joe? How are you? I was a fan of the band you were in called Gods and Aliens. I saw you perform at the Deadhorse back in early 2013 shortly before you parted ways with the band. I really love The Calling. It was the best song in the entire play lineup and I really loved the solo you performed in the beginning. You are a phenomenal bass player. I wanted to ask, do you still talk to the band?

First, I want to say thank you. Thank you for the wonderful compliment. One of the reasons I stayed with Gods n Aliens for so long was because of not only the music, but because of the fans and people like you, so your words are appreciated.

Unfortunately, I don't talk to the band anymore and haven't talked to them in almost 3 years. I think it's better this way simply because I am working on a new music project right now with my girlfriend Sarah.

Question of the Day: What are some of your favorite songs?

Q: I know you are a genius when it comes to creating music and I have heard your work when you were Gods n Aliens. The Calling is one of my favorite songs. I also can't wait to hear your work with Unchained Echo. I wanted to ask you, what are some of your favorite songs?

Hello. How are you? Thanks for the question. I have way too many favorite songs. I am really diverse when it comes to music. I really love rock music more than anything. I am really into progressive industrial type of rock. My least favorite is country, but I can tolerate it.

Question of the Day: Who is funnier - Shane Dawson or Drew Monson?

Q: Hi Joe. I'm a big fan of your blog. I like that you write about all different types of topics. I wanted to ask you, do you follow Shane Dawson or Drew Monson on YouTube? They are so funny. I wanted to ask you, who do you think is funnier?

Hey. How are you? Thanks for the question, you know, I have watched both of them and they are both really funny and talented YouTube personalities. I really can't choose between the two. I never heard about them until recently and had the chance to check out their channels. They both seem really diverse and tend to lean towards the comedic spectrum. I can't say that one is funnier than the other because they are both really talented and of course, funny.

Question of the Day: Who is your celebrity crush?

Q: Joe, I am curious. I read on a website that you had a crush on Kate Upton. Is this true? Who is your celebrity crush?

Honestly, that is not true. Someone is either impersonating me or just assuming that. I think Kate Upton is very average looking. I really don't have a crush right now because I am with the most beautiful woman in the world. Before I was with Sarah though, my crush was Kim Kardashian and it is because she reminded me a lot of Sarah. The Kim Kardashian 4-5 years ago was very attractive. I remember being at the gym at the fire department in McKees Rocks working out and the Keeping Up With The Kardashian show came on TV. My first thought was "is that Sarah?" when I first saw Kim. I have to admit, I have a thing for Middle Eastern women. I will say this. although I have blue eyes, I am not into women with light eyes. Just isn't my thing. Persian women are the hottest and I have always leaned towards the big, dark exotic eyes. I also love women who are short and curvy and have weight in all of the right places. Sarah is everything I want, need, and desire in a woman. She is not only strikingly stunning, but she's intelligent, classy, compassionate, and very talented too. She always puts others before her and always loves helping other people. She helped me many times including in recent years when I was at my lowest. I have never met a woman with such determination, spirit, and fire like my girlfriend. I have known Sarah for 18 years and in my 37 years of living, I have never met a woman at all like her.
