What band am I thinking of? (#1)

[Phillycat]

We did this a couple of years ago (see here http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x6049893) and it was pretty fun. Someone reminded me of it last night and I thought I'd revive the tradition.

It's pretty simple, really. You ask me questions about the band in question and I answer them.

Hopefully there are still people who are into music in the Lounge!

All right, go!
