When I created this poll, I had no idea the results were going to be this lopsided... honestly. I had this strong feeling that everyone was killing to see a Jules interview and I knew people wanted to see an interview with Mike, but I didn't know it was so much more than all of these other guys. I'm genuinely surprised.
I have to apologize though, apparently me creating this poll led a lot of people to believe that we here at DCXX had access to all of these frontmen and would get who ever won the poll, up here on DCXX. Truth of the matter is that we've made attempts at a few of them and so far, none have bitten. The intent of this post was more of a way to get some of these guys in the know about how interested people really are into hearing from them. I do know that at least two of these guys have read or do read DCXX from time to time, so I was hoping they'd be impressed by the results and insist on breaking their silence. We'll see though, hopefully at least one of them will surface.
I will say, I know people really loved the interviews we did with guys like Jimmy Yu and Djinji from Absolution, but you have to realize that both of those guys are pretty unique personalities. Jimmy for example had never been interviewed. Obviously the guy had a lot to say and we happened to catch him at the right time. In the big picture, guys like Jimmy and Djinji are probably a bit rare. With that being said, that doesn't mean that we've given up on definitive, deep, multi entry interviews like those guys brought. As a matter of fact, I just got finished setting one up that I'm pretty sure should make a lot of people happy. I know it will at least make us happy. Stay tuned. -Tim DCXX

I was pullin' for Dubar. Damn.
Speaking of Mike Judge though (here comes the Jake hate), I'm a HUGE fan of the Sights record and would love to find out more about that period in his life.
I would love a Pat Dubar interview... don't care about Judge much.
Dubar interview!!! Please!!!!
Dubar interview but you have to ask him Mind Funk questions too!
Dubar interview and ask him why he never even bothered to cash my check when i ordered a UC hoodie.
Oh yeah, and why it took him a YEAR
to actually send it :))
At least he sent it. Dan O never sent out any of the European Workshed orders even if we sent him us dollars.
ask Dubar which Beanie Baby was his favorite
Mark Ryan would be a great interview also.. not because of what he may say about supertouch.. but because he was around in 82/83/84 with Mike and other people going to A7 and Danceteria when I was listening to Judas Priest and Venom in 7th grade.
just check out the flyers he posted to the OSHC group on fb
Interviews with everyone in the poll plus Kevin Seconds, Chaka Malik, and Dan O'Mahoney would be sweet!
Yeah I remember ordering 2 Unity 7"s and a Unity hoodie back then and it took about a year to get. My friend did a order at the same time and had the same problem. He finally called Longrie through the phone book. After that we both got our order...
I was fortunate enough to live in the same city that the Dubars lived in the '80s, so I just walked over to their house one day and bought a Unity t-shirt right from Courtney.
It can't really have effect, I believe this way.
