Donna J. Carter aka She-Wolfe Presents Hawtie is so HAWT she needs TWO months ;). All the Hella Hawties are special to me but Donna is a distinguished Hawtie as she is not only one of my beautiful friends and confidantes, but she is also my business partner at MADHOUSE, a wonderful wife, an awesome mother, and most important, my metal sister. Thank you so much Donna for being everything you are!!
1. What are your top three favorite bands and why?
1. What are your top three favorite bands and why?
RUSH- Rush is my all time favorite. The music and the words have pulled me out of heartbreaks and break up and just empowered me that these are all “Experience through Extremes…”
I re-energize as often as I can by going to one of their concerts.. They got me and they really make me happy. My favorite Rush album is Hemispheres.
SLAYER- They represent a time in my life that always had Slayer playing in the background.. A killer Castro Valley party, a road trip to Fresno or LA to see them.. I love to listen to them loud in my Jeep and watch the people look at me.. Also, it was our way of saying Hello and Good-bye… “Slayer". My favorite Slayer album is Seasons In The Abyss.
PANTERA- Pantera was the first band that made me groove.. I mean from jamming to a song, then…it just takes you there…erotically at times. I love that. Had a lot of killer fantasies running through my head while they were playing, that’s for sure. My favorite Pantera album is Cowboys From Hell.
2. What is the first concert you remember attending?
It was 1978, I was 12 years old and my mom and step-dad took me to see The Rolling Stones at the Oakland Coliseum. It was Mick Jagger's 36th Birthday and it was crazy! There were helicopters circling and dropping blow up naked lady dolls and a ton of neon painted ping pong balls with the Stones lips logo and KSAN Jive 95 on it. I had a bunch of them for years, but slowly they dissappeared.
3. What are your thoughts on the music scene?
Coming from the Bay Area, (and a native San Franciscan) I’ve loved the metal/thrash scene for over 20 years. I used to videotape bands and actually made a fun video called, “Thrashin’ the Bay” back in the 90’s. Someday, I hope to shorten and re-release it.
In 2009-10, She-Wolfe Presents… booked shows for a short time Brisbane’s Historical 23 Club, shortly after that, a friend introduced me to Al B. and we got along great. All we needed now was a tight team to manage this responsibility. This is all due to being at the right place at the right time with the right people… MADHOUSE EVENTS.com was born. Ace Cook, Stage Manager/Sound Engineer, Jenn of the Hella Jenn Blog, as our Public Relations Liason and Al B. as our Security and PR rep. Suddenly, we have this dialed in venue that holds about 1,000 people and has a great patio area for our summer Sunday BBQ series shows.. And for all you HAWTIES out there.. We are holding a MADHOUSE calendar contest!!!

4. What are the next few shows you plan on attending?
All http://www.MadhouseEvents.com/ Shows and Death Angel, DDP, RUSH, Slaughter by the Water 2, Mayhem & Project Independent.. to name a few.
5. If you could meet anyone and ask a question, who would it be and what would you ask?
It would be to Neil Peart...
Do you know how much you have meant to me..even before we shared the loss of partner, almost around the same time and how do you find time and energy to continue with the projects that are important to you, while knowing we are all mortal and we can go at any moment? Too deep? Well, this question is between Neil and I :)
Sorry fellas she's very taken ❤ |
