THE DERBY GIRL KNOWN ’round these parts as Rockabilly Wreckher answers the 10 questions.

Rockabilly Wreckher is a member of the Pacific Roller Derby league, a newish crew of derby girls based here in Honolulu that is this city’s most raucous example of chicks in skates. The league is currently training and raising money for its debut appearance at this month’s fourth annual RollerCon in Las Vegas.

The next fundraiser party happens tonight at Anna Bannana’s with music courtesy of SheCanDevour, Busekrus, Commando, Bari Bari 13 and Pimpbot.

Doors open at 8, cover is $7 and there will be drink specials all night.

5. What are the most overrated bands of all time?
The ones that charge you an arm and a leg to see them! Get over yourselves! I’m an avid music lover supporting you and that’s how you repay me? By charging me 38 bones to see you when I remember paying five bucks five years ago when you were in a club with 20 to 30 people at most? Pfffttt….

San Francisco … or maybe a pub in Ireland drinking the “real” Guinness I keep hearing so much about.

My husband. He’s smarter than me. He’d keep me in line.

8. What’s in your refrigerator?
Smithwick’s, Blonde Bock, leftover Thai, rotting veggies, and too many condiments… I think there’s some healthy stuff hiding in the back.

9. What’s your guiltiest pleasure?
I like fancy restaurants.

10. Complete the sentence: I want _______.
The island to love roller derby as much as I do!
