Ben Johnson likes all kinds of music. Specifically, he's interested in having his face melted off by either a deliciously distorted guitar riff, a perfectly literate lyric, or a ridiculous jazz drum solo. He likes hanging out and talking about music over a good wine, a fine beer, or even just your regular ol' 12-pack of Miller High Life. Heck, he even likes smoothies, if they're done right. He also feels very strongly that a sandwich is a work of art, and that one shouldn't rush through it's creation.

Ben's favorite band is Radiohead. There. He said it. He also likes Queens of The Stone Age, Califone, Johnny Cash, Thelonious Monk, Ravel, The Stooges, and a lot of other stuff that's truly great.
