Hard Rock Boys Dig Star Wars

We have recently moved our ongoing series on starwars.com of interviews with bands and celebs who dig Star Wars to a new area in the Community section appropriately called: Star Wars Rocks

This is where you can read the entire archive of interviews with the likes of:
Fall Out Boy, Aqualung, Anthrax, The Bravery, Ash, Kasabian, Nickel Creek, MxPx, Eisley and many more!

Most recently, I've interviewed:

Slipknot lead singer Corey Taylor talks about obsession, politics and making the right choices in Episode III in the article:
Slipknot Escapes with Star Wars

Story of the Year bassist Adam Russell chats about his X-wing tattoos, thoughts on Revenge of the Sith and why he believes George Lucas is a master storyteller in the article:
Anakin's Fall Shakes Up Story of the Year

Feel free to suggest celebs, athletes, rockers, rappers who you know LOVE Star Wars here and I'll see if I can contact them.

Up next I'm working on interviews with the following:
* Richard Patrick from Filter/Army of Anyone
* Snow Patrol
* The Roots
* Viva Voce

Bonnie, that was an EXCELLENT article. It was the best of the band profiles. I was floored. I was pleasantly surprised you chose to include the possibly inflammatory comment made by Mr. Taylor about the perceived political overtones of ROTS. I couldn't agree with him more. Because of the bands image and the nature of the music they play, it is surprising that he is thoughtful, well mannered, and well spoken. Slipknot isn't really my cup of tea, but I could really feel his passion for the Saga. It gos to show that even "cool people" are nerds like the rest of us!

This is such a great section to have, bands who like Star Wars. Trying to get an interview with The Darkness on my site www.lightsabre.co.uk (My sister used to go to school with the new bass player) and also with the female guitarist out of Ash (her boyfriend directed Shaun of the Dead, the best film of 2004)
One other quick question - how on earth do you get to be the featured blog of the day? Lucky dip? Bribery? Send you flowers through the mail? Tell me, it's my new obsession! :-p
