Roll Call: Larkin Grimm

" width=

For today's Roll Call we call out Larkin Grimm.

Who are you?

Larkin Grimm.

Describe yourself in three words.

decadent, compassionate, reptilian.

Who — dead or alive — would most you like to meet?

The Prophet Muhammed.  I'd ask him to play drums on a musical tour of the modern Islamic world with me and I'd ask him how it all compares to his original dream.

Who would you most like to slap in the face?

A young Marlene Dietrich.  But first I would tie her to the bench in Marilyn Monroe's crypt, lying in a bed of Joe DiMaggio's roses.

What song do you wish you had written?

"Death of Samantha" by Yoko Ono.

Elvis Costello or Elvis Presley?

Elvis Presley on stage, but I'd rather sit next to Elvis Costello on an airplane to Vegas.

LP, CD or MP3?

Heavy Vinyl is a sacred ritual, dude!

If you could start one trend, what would it be?

Mandatory Psychic Etiquette classes for all school-aged children.

If you could end one trend, what would it be?

The chronic cynicism of educated people in my generation

With whom would you most like to play a game of spin the bottle?

The cast of a great John Stagliano BDSM film called Fashionistas.

Larkin Grimm plays the Earl tonight with Antic Clay and Long Knives. $7. 9 p.m. 488 Flat Shoals Rd. 404-522-3950. www.badearl.com.
