Richard Kingsmill Position/Company: Music Director, Triple J How did you get your start in the music industry? By collecting records from the age of 7. Best part of the job? Still collecting records. Worst part of the job? Running out of space to collect records. Any interesting experiences you can share? Having done more than a thousand interviews, I have a few. Watching Primal Scream's Bobby Gillespie slide down underneath the desk as I was interviewing him was interesting. He said he really enjoyed the interview afterwards, but I think he might have been enjoying something else at the time. Favourite CD of all time and why? Television - 'Marquee Moon'. Because I still shake my head and wonder what the hell is going on. Tell us about the best live show that you ever saw? Jeff Buckley at the Metro in 1995. His first show in Australia. Candles on stage. Silence in the audience. I saw him play four times all up, but he never played better than that night. Favourite bars/clubs/pubs to hang out in? Metro, Annandale, Spectrum, Hopetoun, Vanguard. What advice would you give to someone looking at getting involved in the music industry? Have fun, and everything else on top of that will be a bonus.
