Description As some of you may know (because I did a very good job of celebrating it on my page), this year is the 50th year anniversary of Dark Side of the Moon! Not only is it one of the greatest and most influential albums of all time but the album is one of my personal favorites. I have made it no secret how much this album means to me. Not only was Money my first real dive into classic rock that eventually led to me loving music as much as I do, but Dark Side of the Moon’s album cover inspired me to create the series I call Cover Girls! Now, why am I reiterating all this? Well, today is the 1 year anniversary of my first big hit, the original parody of Dark Side of the Moon! And I thought what way better to honor the girl that started it all than by letting y’all get to know her better...


------------------


Jukebox: Alright! So, is the chair comfy?

Dark Side: Yeah! It’s alright.

Jukebox: That’s what I like to hear! Now, just to let the people at home know, this is how it’ll work. For now, I’ll be interviewing you and asking questions that help the audience get to know you better.

Dark Side: Alright, sounds good so far!

Jukebox: When that’s over, we’ll have the audience submit questions (and I do mean questions. No dares or requests.) they may have in the comment section below. My lovely assistant here will be collecting comments for the next few days! (Gestures to a figure of screen. Camera pans to reveal Punk sitting at a desk at a computer. She looks up and waves, giving a little smile. The camera pans back over to the main set.) Now, the questions can be about you, your friends, your enemies, etc. You up for it?

Dark Side: Hell yeah! Anything for my adoring fans!

Jukebox: Spoken like a truly humble icon.

Dark Side: I pride myself on my humility~

Jukebox: You got a real weird way of saying humiliation, heh.

Dark Side: Hey! Sh-Shut up!

Jukebox: Speaking of which, the best questions in the comments (aka, my personal favorites) will end up getting featured in their own little drawing whenever the hell I manage to get to it. 

Dark Side: Oh nice! So long as I don’t find myself strung up in a wedgie again for the hundredth time…

Jukebox: No promises!

Dark Side: Wait, what?!

Jukebox: Anyway! All questions left in the comments will be answered all together on a big follow up post in about… Punk, how long did I say we'd be taking questions? One week? (Punk nods) One week! So the post should go live around the end of July! 

Dark Side: Isn’t… Isn’t that a bit far from now?

Jukebox: Anyway! Onto the interview! So, Dark Side, tell us about yourself!

Dark Side: Well, as you know, my full name is Dark Side of the Moon! I popped into existence just a little over 50 years ago. I’m Pisces! I am also a multi-instrumentalist!

Jukebox: Oh? Do tell! What do you play? I can only do a little bit of piano (and melodica).

Dark Side: Well, I can play tenor sax, bass guitar, electric guitar, piano, and drums!

Jukebox: Oh shit! Well, I used to be a percussionist too back in-

Dark Side: I’m not done. Besides being very talented at several different instruments, I am also a writer, a poet, an astronomer, an astrologer, a psychologist, a film enthusiast, a bookworm, an artist, a museumgoer, and-

Jukebox: Christ, no wonder why people call you Dork Side-

Dark Side: (Shoots glance) Hey, I asked you before the interview to not call me that! As much as your page might portray, I am much more than just a nerd!

Jukebox: While that is very much true, your dorkiness is your appeal!

Dark Side: Hey! Watch it! I am not dorky! I am very well aware of the reputation I, as an album, have! Number 55 on The Rolling Stone’s 2020 list for top 500 albums of all time! I have the longest run of any album on the Billboard Top 200! I am one of the best selling albums of all time and shifted music as a whole by just existing! C'mon! You can’t call me dorky while knowing all that!

Jukebox: While you have a good point… I’ll still be calling your dorky cuz it’s funny. At the end of the day, you are the “We live in a society” album. An attempt to condense the entirety of humanity and society into about 40+ minutes of admittedly really cool guitar and saxophone solos.

Dark Side: Oh shut up… D-Don’t you have other questions to ask me, radio head?

Jukebox: Heh, of course I do! Hmmm… So how’s things with your sister, The Wall?

Dark Side: Oh, she’s been okay thankfully! They have a tendency to just disappear into their room. I know she’s okay though. I can hear her belting Jesus Christ Superstar from my room every so often. I can’t exactly blame her. With fucking Velvet and her bitch ass friends on the prowl so often, I wish I was satisfied being cooped up in my room all day.

Jukebox: Speaking of, what’s up with you and Velvet?

Dark Side: Well duh. I hate her and she hates me.

Jukebox: Well I know that. I just meant… like, why?

Dark Side: (Smirks slightly) Isn’t it obvious? It’s cuz I’m better than her.

Jukebox: Well, that’s a little subjective, isn’t it?-

Dark Side: I am much more popular than she is! She is just jealous of me! I am here ruling the world while her stoner ass is just a “cult classic” that only got good with hindsight.

Jukebox: Heh, funny you call her the stoner. I had forgotten for the longest time that Dark Side of the Moon was a quintessential stoner album. Do you even smoke?

Dark Side: Uhhh… Yeah! Yeah I did!

Jukebox: … I don’t fully believe that-

Dark Side: Well, you should. I was a weed smoking girl, friend. I just don’t do it as often as I used to. And… And I prefer weed cigs over having to get the shit, get some paper, roll it myself and all that.

Jukebox: Weed cigarettes…?

Dark Side: They're called bunts, just so you know. Now, if you want someone who is more into smoking than me, it’d be Merica! Don’t tell her I told you but she makes it a habit to steal some of Velvet’s stash. It almost always results in Sex Pistol getting blamed. (Snickers.)

Jukebox: Oh damn. Heh, first some inflated ego and now schadenfreude? I’m surprised you have it in you!

Dark Side: What? Did you think I was just some goody two shoes?

Jukebox: I mean, yeah. Look at you.

Dark Side: Gaah, shut up! Just get on with the questions!

Jukebox: (Snickers) Alright! So, aside from The Wall, Do you have any other family members?

Dark Side: Well, I do! I wouldn’t exactly call us a family in the traditional sense though. Like… We are related and have sorta taken up some form of title… Like how me and Wall are sisters. But… genetically, it doesn’t exactly cross. Like all the XX and XY stuff. We don’t get that. It’s like… it’s like asexual reproduction except none of us are ace and instead of getting an exact duplicate, you get something new! This all make sense to you?

Jukebox: …yes, it is. A little convoluted though. That does leave me wondering… Who is your family?

Dark Side: Well… There is A███ █████ ██████, the closest I have to a mom. M█████, who is basically the cool aunt. She was the one that inspired me to be so artistic! Then there is A██████, who is kinda like… a step sister or first cousin? She is like a sister and fits in with me and Wall but… She is really different from us. As is A███ for that matter…

Jukebox: Different? How?

Dark Side: Well… if they ever drop by, you’ll see.

Jukebox: Heh, nice and foreboding.

Dark Side: Why thank you~

Jukebox: So, is there anyone else in your family tree?

Dark Side: (Her eyes turn orange) Nope! No one else at all!

Jukebox: You know, I can tell when you’re lying. But, I won’t press on the subject.

Dark Side: Phew… Thank you. So, any more questions you have left for me?

Jukebox: Well, we have meandered about random shit for long enough! How does a lightning round sound about now?

Dark Side: Ooo, sounds fun!

Jukebox: Excellent! Are you ready?

Dark Side: Sure am!

Jukebox: Alright! What’s your favorite video game?

Dark Side: Easy! Splatoon! I have all three with the second being my favorite! I’m also a fan of classic arcade style space shooters like Asteroids, Galaxian/Galaga, and Space Invaders!

Jukebox: Oh cool! Hmm… favorite food? Not a snack cuz we know it’s Skittles.

Dark Side: Fuck… That would have to be Chinese take out! Not only because I love dumplings and shrimp fried rice but I love collecting the Lunar Calendars that come with the meal.

Jukebox: Oh shit! I love checking those out when I get the chance to! What’s your lunar zodiac animal?

Dark Side: I am the Ox! How about you?

Jukebox: I am the Horse! Oh, speaking of, what’s your favorite animal?

Dark Side: That would have to be owls! Nocturnal and smart little bitches~

Jukebox: Sound familiar?

Dark Side: Guilty as charged.

Jukebox: Heh, figures. How about your favorite movies? Aside from Wizard of Oz.

Dark Side: I am a fan of the original Star Wars trilogy cuz fuck the sequels. I also love 2001: A Space Odyssey. Fell in love with it the first time I watched it with M█████. Also, weirdly enough… I have a thing for bad comedy movies. Specifically Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2-

Jukebox: Well that one came out of fucking left field-

Dark Side: I knoooow. Fucking Merica and Metallica had the exact same reaction! And they watch shitty movies together all the time. Although… They watch them drunk and/or high to “enhance the experience”.

Jukebox: Well, to me it sounds like the two of them have the right idea!

Dark Side: Well, I guess you could say so!

[Bell rings]

JUkebox: Fuck, seems like that all the time we got. Now, it’s your turn! You got a question you wanna ask her? Just leave it in the comments below! My lovely operator is standing by so don’t delay! More to come soon, I hope!

[Outro plays]
