Meet Ted Bundy, our October Fan Of The Month

ted1.jpg

Ted Bundy is a special case, because I actually know the guy! In fact, I'm the one who named him! He's really Wes. and he's the brother of Chrissy (one of this websites photographers). He's a pretty cool guy and has been a big help with interviews and such. In our Forum he has accepted his given name and is charming all the ladies with his style, wit and boyish good looks. Those traits have also earned him the title of October's Fan Of The Month! If you'd like to be our next FOTM (and get a free cd while you're at it!) just send an email to anarchy@anarchymusic.net and we'll get you in as soon as possible1 Now, everyone meet my friend Ted!

Name: Wes Benson

Age: 27

Location: Columbia, SC

Single: Yes.

If so, what’s going to turn your head? If not, how's it going?

A girl with a healthy kick of attitude. I love it when women can hold their own.

Go ahead; tell us about yourself...hobbies, interests, that sort of thing:

I like to draw, play guitar, read, write, golf, sit around and drink coffee, watch football etc.

Whats your "style" (emo, punker, preppy etc)?

I don't really view myself to have a style since I'm past the age of caring what people tend to classify me as. And besides, I'm not really sure what category I'd be placed in to begin with.

Do you have a Myspace or blog you want to plug?

Yep, it's http://www.myspace.com/grandisco

They are a GREAT band. But you're gonna have to friend them then leave nice comments encouraging them to get off of their asses and put out some complete songs.

What are some of your favorite bands?

Thursday, Bright Eyes, Superdrag, Nada Surf, Engine Down, From First to Last, Emery, Pearl Jam, Copeland, Weezer, Saves the Day, etc. etc. etc.

How about some bands you can’t stand?

Cute is What We Aim For, Panic! At the Disco, Fallout Boy, James Blunt, K-Fed, Nickelback, Godsmack, Metallica, etc. etc. etc.

What’s your best concert experience so far?

Hrm, that would have to be Emery. My sister said it best when she texted me the other night saying "Emery is f*cking amazing". They truly are. Emery's stage presence and energy just grabs a hold of me and makes me want to put my head through a wall!

What’s the music scene like in your hometown/school/whatever? Give us the scoop on where to hang and what there is to do:

In Columbia the underground music scene is awesome. So many good bands come through the New Brookland Tavern that it isn't even funny. And, if a band outgrows the small confines of the Tavern, they usually upgrade to playing Headliner's the next go-round.

Name one band that everyone needs to check out and why(feel free to give us links):

Firefly Summer

They are personal friends of mine, are great guys who put out good music, and deserve A LOT of attention.

What cd are we sending you for granting you the extreme honor of being Fan of The Month?

I suppose that a copy of Emery's "The Weak's End" would suit me just fine. I have yet to pick it up but it's a stellar album.
