UV: Where was this photo taken?
KLJ: This photo was taken in my former dwelling in San Francisco. This place is so facinating, there is pink and black everywhere. It is really fun, like living in a circus tent without the elephant poop. There are chandeliers, mondrian inspired walls, and Mr. Rogers hand puppets from the land of make believe.

UV: Do you live a Pop Life?
KLJ: I'm just a nerd.

UV: Who are your favorite girl bands?
KLJ: My favorite girl bands and/ or singers are (in no particular order): Josie Cotton, The Runaways, Cakelike, Heart, Marianne Faithful, The Waitresses, The Slits, Berlin, Aretha Franklin, Altered Images, the girls who sing backup for Prince and the Revolution, Pat Benatar, the Butterglory girl, The Go-Go's, Tammy Wynette and that whole country gal crew, Helium, Nancy Sinatra, The Bobbyteens, Exene Cervenka, Blondie, The 5,6,7,8's, Elastica, that one Voice of the Beehive album, blah blah blah...

UV: Can rock & roll change the world?
KLJ: Rock rocks!!
