Entertainment editor Enrico Jurado is 22 years old and has been on staff for two semesters. As a huge music buff, he is the perfect fit for the Entertainment section, and has written many concert and album reviews. He’s a cool guy… we thought you might want to know a little more about him.
Q: What do you do here on staff?A: I write, I do layout, and eat bagels and pizza.
Q: Do you go by any nicknames?A: Not really. My family calls me Niko, but that’s it.
Q: What type of music are you into?A: When I was younger I was really into metal. Now I have a wide range of CDs in my collection, and it covers everything from metal to hip hop to country. And Spice Girls.
Q: What do you do for fun?A: I work for fun, and work, and work, and work… and poop.
Q: Why do you go to so many concerts?A: Because I have nothing else to do in life.
Q: What was your favorite concert and why?A: Rock the Bells last year because of the Rage Against the Machine reunion.
Q: What do you think your friends say about you when you’re not around?A: Probably “Enrico’s a f***in’ a**hole. I hate that guy.”
Q: If you could be any person for a day, who would you be and why?A: I’d be that guy that impregnated Jessica Alba, just because he gets to f*** Jessica Alba. Just kidding.
Q: It’s Doomsday and you’re the last person left on Earth. What’s the first thing you will do? A: I would try to clone myself and make 50 million of me running around. I think the world would be a better place.
Q: If you could get your hands on a DeLorian, where in time would you travel and why?A: I would have travelled to back in December when I should have gone to that Spice Girls concert.
Q: Do you have any strange hobbies?A: No, not really. I think I’m pretty normal.
Q: Then what are your normal hobbies?A: I go CD shopping and go to concerts. That’s all I do with my life… and work. But work is not a hobby.
Q: What is your biggest pet peeve and why?A: Horrible grammar, because people sound like idiots.
Q: What is your favorite place to be and why?A: Amoeba Music, because I get to shop for CD’s for hours and waste all my money. That’s all I do, shop for CDs.
Q: Why should people read your section of the paper?A: Because our staff writes good reviews and we give people good suggestions about what they should check out in the world of entertainment.
Q: What do you feel is the most important thing people should know about you?A: I’m really not an a**hole. I’m a pretty nice guy once you get to know me, I think.
