Hello my name is Samantha and I am 14 years old! I have emailed you once before but I just realized your website is working now so I wanted to do the Ask Brian thing because I think you rock! OK, I’m just going to ask you a really crazy question for the kicks and giggles of it. If you were trapped on a deserted island and could bring one favorite CD and 2 other items, that you couldn’t live without, what would they be? (Yeah, I know its not original but hey, its all I could think of!)  Can’t wait to see you at JAXX!!! — Samantha!!!

Hi Samantha,
First of all, I’m a Libra. A decision like this could cause me to go insane. One CD? Okay I’ll just have to pick one at random and go with it… The Very Best of Freddie King, Volume One. And two other items? Hmm… let’s see… well one of them would have to be a guitar (my Telecaster) and the other would have to be a CD player. Otherwise what use would the CD be? I won’t even get into the electricity thing. That’s a whole other can of worms.
