Gary Cioni - Crime In Stereo

Gary plays guitar for Crime In Stereo

1. You recently got back from Australia. How did that tour go? Name one thing that you found weird or interesting about Australia.
The tour in Australia was amazing, I would have to say it is the most amazing thing that I have experienced yet from being in a band. One thing that i found to be interesting in Australia was how far apart all the cities are, you literally cannot drive from show to show there because everything is so far apart. you need to fly to each city.

2. If you were not slaying the road, what profession do you think you'd like to try?

Hmm, I think I would try opening up an eating establishment of some sorts.

3. What's next for Crime In Stereo?

We will be heading to Europe in a few weeks for a tour with our good friends in Comeback Kid. After that we will be doing a short headliner in the states before we meet up with New Found Glory, A Day To Remember, and Four Year Strong for a month.

4. Name three people, places, or things that you hate.

Any pet Bryan Barash has ever owned, New Jersey, and people with blowouts

5. Name three things that always get you psyched, no matter what.

Anything with bbq sauce, Maggie Cioni, and B. Garrone

6. Why are you so good at golf, and are you confident you are the best golfer in hardcore?

I am good at golf because I did not have much else to do with my time between the ages of 14-17, and I would say I am fairly confident I could take on anyone in the hardcore scene with relatively little effort.

7. How do you see the incredibly high (and rising) gas prices affecting touring and hardcore?

I think that current gas prices are going to prevent a lot of smaller bands from being able to get out on the road for long tours because its simply too expensive. if your only making 100 dollars a night and its costing you more than double that to get from show to show, touring is not really a practical option anymore.

7.5 How do you feel about global warming? (Editors note: Gary decided to ask himself this question)
Global warming is probably one of the major problems we’ll face in our lifetimes, and it will continue to be a huge issue for hundreds of years to come. Among the predicted consequences are mass extinctions, disruption of food chains, slow but continual rise in sea levels, to the point that some communities (some islands, for example, and also some major cities in the longer term), will be completely underwater in the foreseeable future.
