You are commuting. It’s insanely cold outside. And suddenly it’s also snowing. Hard. We’re talking McCabe and Mrs. Miller-style, the-apocalypse-is-coming-by-way-of-a-blizzard snow. You’re stranded in your vehicle (train, bus, car, cable car, whatever) with only your iPod, rapidly cooling morning beverage and one rock star to keep you company. Who is with you and what do you guys do to pass the time?

Ouroboros | 1/26/2007, 12:31 pm EST
David Bowie. We talk about the making of the “Berlin trilogy” (Low/Heroes/Lodger), as well as “Heathen”. He tells me the ending of the story of The Ritual Art Murder of Baby Grace Blue and what happened to the idea of the remaining 4 albums of the Nathan Adler Diaries series with Brian Eno that got scrapped.

I’d be stranded with Sheryl Crow in my 300-C and head to the the Dunkin’ Donuts and Wawa nearby(they’re both located near each other in New Castle,DE,which is a convient thing).After we’re satisfied with our Boston cremes and our even toastier heat ventilation,we’ll alternate between our favorite r&b/rock stations-jammin’ to Janis one minute,shmoozin’ to Stephanie the next.Alanis can come along for the ride too,since her assumingly ’70’s Cadillac broke down-a la “Ironic”(laughs).
reba | 1/26/2007, 12:46 pm EST
I’d be trapped with Mos Def. He’s one hell of a smart guy and hot too. We’d just talk about the world.
jill hives | 1/26/2007, 12:48 pm EST
willie nelson – ‘cos he’s funny and rolls with the good shit.
myspace.com/15keys | 1/26/2007, 1:04 pm EST
For anyone who reads what I post and you all know that you lol. I will continue to beat my dead horse and say Elvis Costello. We’d have our guitars in the back and write an album together and just chat about how he couldve been Liv Tylers dad.
Thrashers Rule | 1/26/2007, 1:04 pm EST
Mike Patton and we thumb wrestle….
Jim | 1/26/2007, 1:44 pm EST
I’d cuddle with Joss Stone and keep her bare feet warm while she sings something smokey and soulful.
Fjord's 4-eva(Norwegian pride) | 1/26/2007, 1:54 pm EST
Me and Kim Gordon would have hot lesbo sex to keep warm.
Shelly | 1/26/2007, 2:06 pm EST
It would be me and Jon Bon Jovi, talking and writing songs together.
Bodi | 1/26/2007, 2:13 pm EST
Axl Rose so I could beat the shit out of him for continually delaying and teasing us with Chinese Democracy.
HK | 1/26/2007, 2:25 pm EST

Scott P | 1/26/2007, 2:51 pm EST
I’d probably have to pick Tom Waits, I’d listen to him tell some great stories for an hour or so, then we’d lead a big sing along with all the other cars stuck around to some of his best songs.
Buster C | 1/26/2007, 2:53 pm EST
Kieth Richards,we’d get drunk and write songs, or Gwen Stefani and well….

lala | 1/26/2007, 4:36 pm EST

tommy lee…what do you THINK we’ll do?
Tim | 1/26/2007, 6:02 pm EST
Steve Page from BNL and we’d talk about re-inventing the music industry, the destruction of DRM, and the melodies of Brian Wilson.
Zach | 1/26/2007, 6:05 pm EST
Hello! Willie Nelson, anyone? It may be the end of the world but at least we will be extremely happy when the world stops spinning.
King Bee | 1/26/2007, 7:54 pm EST

Eddie Vedder cause I couldn’t get much vedder. Yeah baby…
Anonymous2 | 1/27/2007, 12:02 pm EST
Liam the Oasis guy cause he’s always wearing a big coat, maybe he’d lend it to me if he was a real sweet gentleman. Or Gwen Stefani, she could teach me about fashion or something.
sassy2180 | 1/27/2007, 4:02 pm EST
Brad Nowell. We would smoke two joints.
Nurple-blurp | 1/27/2007, 6:13 pm EST
I would play paper football with Yanni. Maybe talk about the good old days… at the Acropolis. Ah, that was a good time.
Fred | 1/27/2007, 8:06 pm EST
Zach de la Rocha. I would ask him what he’s been doing the last 7 years.
rudeness | 1/28/2007, 2:06 am EST

Sophie | 1/28/2007, 11:14 am EST
Jimmy Page. He would play guitar while i’ll play drums on the dashboard!
StillBrushingStillBleeding | 1/28/2007, 7:49 pm EST
I’ve always thought Amanda Palmer would be amazing to talk to, her or Morrissey, but I’d love to cuddle up next to Gerard Way for a couple hours…or days…….or years…
Sarah | 1/28/2007, 9:05 pm EST
William Beckett. Because that dude’s just awesome.
We’d probably play Candy Land, then order some Hawaiian pizzas and watch Little Miss Sunshine.
holly | 1/28/2007, 10:47 pm EST
I’d hang out with snow patrol… because they’re the snow partol and they’d be able to get me out of there. then I’d tell them that their song is annoying (but after they get me out of course).
peteroneil | 1/29/2007, 12:51 am EST

~Zig~ | 1/29/2007, 5:04 am EST
I would pick Sir Paul McCartney.We would talk about the Beatles,Wings,John,George,and Ringo,his late wife Linda and what a bitch Heather is.We would chat and listen to “Sgt.Pepper”.
Dr.Paul E. Harrison | 1/29/2007, 10:40 am EST
I would have Jessica Simpson sitting on my face!
lola | 1/29/2007, 11:09 am EST
I would have to pick Jeff Buckley(before he died of course). As for the activity, singing,his songs and some of my other favorites. And after that I’m sure we could find other ways to pass time.
Susan | 1/30/2007, 12:57 pm EST
Travis MCcoy from Gym Class Heroes. yeah and we would talk about nothing and everything. and i would change the question a little and include my husband in the car, he could fix it when we get tired of talking and listening to my ipod.
miccc | 1/31/2007, 5:29 pm EST
Jimmy Page. Unbeatable music, and for some reason it’s strangely warm when this genius is around.
Blackwood | 2/2/2007, 6:01 am EST
mmm…
stranded? I don’t think I’d like to get stranded with anyone, even if I really like the person… although I wouldn’t mind to be locked up in a car with Ville Valo.
I think he’d be nice company, and a great protection against the cold.
Roberta Zimmerman | 4/13/2007, 5:56 pm EST
Naturally, Bob Dylan. After I brushed all of the snowflakes off of his curls and rubbed him all over to warm up, we’d share a blanket to maintain body heat and watch the snow fall and fall…oh, yeah, and bring that bottle over here!
