1. How do you get the Name for your Wrock Band?

Well, we were just talking one day, wondering why there weren't any goblin wrock bands. Because goblins rule the whole Harry Potter world -- they control all the money! So then we started talking about Hagrid, and how he must be really smart to think Wizard Money is "dead easy." (Remember how he keeps saying that?) So then we wanted to see if we could make a song about wizard money and I came up with "Prime Numbers." Our sister thought it was really catchy, and we should write it down or record it. So then all of a sudden we were a wrock band, and we didn't have a name. We wanted "Gringotts" in the name, and then "grrls" just seemd to go with it. So there you go!

2.How many people are in your Band?

There's two of us (our sister played with us our very first show, but that was just especially lucky for us;-D)

3. What adverice do you have for Wrock Bands that are coming out?

Go for it! If there's something in the books that inspires you and a style of music you like, you don't need anything else. And the wrock community is really wonderful and positive -- you'll be really happy to be a part of it!

4.What is your Favorite Wrock Band and Muggle Band. And Why?

Oh, this is hard! We like all kinds of music and we love all kinds of wrock, too. So we really can't choose just a couple of bands.

5.Where can people buy your cd's? If you have anying out?

We don't have a CD out yet, but we hope we will by this Summer.

6.Have you ever gone to a Wizard Rock conferences or conventions?

No -- Terminus is going to be our first one!

7.Do you have Band t-shirts or anything like that out that Wrock Fans can Buy?

We have to get going with that, too. People have asked us -- we designed a couple of shirts for ourselves, to wear to shows, but they're hard to reproduce, so we need to come up with something better :-D.

8.Is there's any tours or shows coming out soon?

We're going to be at the Wizards & Pancakes show in NJ in March, and we'll also be at Terminus! Yay!

9.What is the crazy thing a fan did for you, If so what was it? or Friend?

Oh, wow --- nothing yet. People do all kinds of nice things, like coming to our shows and laughing at our lyrics. But nothing crazy that I can think of right now!

10.Any new Song coming out?

Yes! There are a couple that we've sung live but never recorded (I guess especially "He broke the bank") and we are going to record those someday. Plus there's that catch I keep saying I'm writing. (that's a really tricky type of song to write, but I'll get it down someday!) And there are a couple more we've come up with, too, and several we need to rerecord.

11.Do you have any new website other then Myspace?Like a blog or wordpress?

Well, I do a myspace for Pale Male the red tailed hawk. That's at myspace.com/pale_male And we both do myspaces for our libraries. I'm in the Mount Kisco Library, and Mary is in the North Castle library in Armonk. Mary also has a livejournal, where she puts essays and short stories and things.

12.Do You have anything esle you want to say to your fans and Friends?

Wow -- just thank you, and we think you're awesome! And we hope you enjoy the music.
