In the Spotlight - Season 3 - Ep. 3 with Eric Hausser from Counterpunch - A Powered By Rock Podcast Short

Author: Powered By Rock August 12, 2022 Duration: 11:17

Hey there, it’s Isaac from Powered By Rock here to bring Eric Hausser from the Chicago-based punk band Counterpunch into the spotlight for a few minutes, and make him sweat with some on-the-spot questions.

Welcome, Eric. Are you ready to be put in the spotlight?

1 - I am pretty sure you are about my age, and as such, you probably remember the claymation Celebrity Death Matches on MTV back in the day. If you could pick two real life celebrities for a death match knowing that at least one was going to die, who would you pick and why?

2 - What is the one thing you miss from the quarantine lockdown?

3 - As a Chicago guy, are you ready to jump in on the great pizza debate and say once and for all that Chicago has the best pizza? If so, what’s the best kind of pie and best pie shop in Chi-town?

4 - What was the best thing and worst thing that ever happened to you at a show or while on tour?

5 - If you could either write a song FOR another artist or co-write a song WITH another artist, who would be your dream collaboration?

I want to thank you, Eric, for stepping In the Spotlight and answering these hot seat questions.
