First "Celebrity" Interview posted - Mike Kennerty

[Guest Admin]

So I had this idea for a new feature on the Vinyl Collective blog, the "Celebrity" interview which is basically an interview with record collectors in bands or who run labels. I just posted the first one with Mike Kennerty of the All American Rejects who also owns Edmond Records who just put out the Ben Weasel vinyl you all know about.

You can read the interview here:

Feel free to suggest other people to interview, or feel free to interview someone in a band or who runs a label and we will run it.

link is broken, virg! but anyway,

you should do the singer of fear before the march of flames. i know he collects, and you probably have all the contact info.

Great feature!!

I'm always amused when guys who play in mostly pop bands listen to stuff like An Albatross.

thanks for fixing my link, not sure what happened there. Feel free to keep suggesting more. It would be neat just to know what band members are avid collectors.

Chad Gilbert from NFG would be a cool one

[xjustinxschwierx]

Evan Patterson of Auxiliary Records and currently in Coliseum.

Evan is in Young Widows (& Black Cross)

Ryan is in Coliseum (& Black Cross)

as far as i know Evan does help with Auxiliary, but Ryan is the main dude.

[xjustinxschwierx]

I suggest John Cusack.

seriously.

[mclz]

i saw mike's hye page. he has a fucking awesome collection

[mclz]

Second the vote for Chad from NFG and John Cusack.

- Jeff

Damnit! I always get Ryan and Evan confused! Thanks for the clearing up!

Mike is such an awesome guy. Dude wore a Combatwoundedveteran on THE FUCKING TONIGHT SHOW WITH JAY LENO a few years back. Like, talk about mind-blowing.

an albatross is not solely for crazy people. even if they sound like it.

they rule its just odd but then again combatwoundedveteran isn't exactly easy listening either. i knew there was a reason i enjoyed all-american rejects.

somehow i wouldnt have pinpointed this guy as having a lot of the records that he does but thats pretty cool. dont like AAR at all though.

Not to sound like kisss-ass...but how about an interview with Virgil?...He may not be a "celebrity" in the sense of the word, but hell, he's a rock star to us for providing all the vinyl we have all bought and are addicted to.

Just a thought.

[cadetapplesauce]

i second the interview with chad. i also suggest an interview with var from NIR.
