“The Pork Council is in disarray!”


        BROKEN DOWN LORI Q&A

        WHITNEY JODOUIN

        Q: As one of the founding members of rocking four-piece
        combo, Broken Down Lori, have you ever pushed anyone down
        in a parking lot and then stolen a few of those little square
        things of Ramen instant noodles that they were carrying home
        from the grocery store? The reason I ask is that years ago I
        formed a band called the Snow Plowers and the first thing I did
        after forming the band was push someone down and steal their
        Raman noodles.

        Q: Someone told me you took vocal lessons. Is that just small
        town gossip or is there any truth to it?

        Q: Are there any particular artists that really appreciate? Your
        singing voice is reminiscent of woman vocalists from days gone
        by, like Janis Joplin, Nina Simone, Dusty Springfield and Shia
        LeBoeuf.

        Q: Have you ever crossed a train bridge on foot, then climbed
        up a really steep mountain to see what all the fuss was about,
        and then when you get up there, you look around in the most
        dramatic fashion at the majesty, magnificence and wonder of
        it all and then thought to yourself “What the fuck is all the fuss
        about?” before climbing back down the mountain, walking
        pack on foot across the train bridge to watch Netflix for the rest
        of the day?

        Q: You sound particularly pissed off at the beginning of Hollow
        Man. What’s the deal with that?

        Q: Some musicians wear capes and go-go boots. I have a cape
        that I bought at a yard sale. I have no go-go boots but I did buy
        a bowling ball for 6 bucks. It’s the kind with holes bored into
        them like the ones on the Big Lebowski. What is your take on
        capes and go-go boots?

        Q: Do you own a shank?

        Q: You have a definite presence on stage. Are you nervous at
        all when it comes to playing live?

        Q: I read somewhere that you’re middle name is Marmalade.
        Fact or fiction?

        Q: You play piano which is weird because my Uncle Wallace
        plays the piano but he sucks at it. Everyone tells him how good
        he is but that’s because when he’s not playing piano he’s
        waving around a shank. So, I guess my question is: Have you
        ever tripped and fell down in public? Once I was crossing the
        street at a crosswalk and there was a little snow on the pave
        and I wiped right out and ending up flinging my keys while I
        was trying to catch my balance and the keys fell down into a
