Next weekend will (hopefully) rock. I'm going up to Chicago with some friends to see 2 concerts. Friday night (9/26), Distillers are going to be playing at The Bottom Lounge, and the very next day (9/27), Bouncing Souls are playing at the Metro with Tsunami Bomb.
To top it off, I'm getting guest-listed to the Souls show, because of the radio station's connection with Epitaph (goooo college radio!). Sadly, they couldn't get me into the Distillers show, because that band isn't on an album promo tour, but hell, its only 13$ or something. Anyways, the best part of this is that I get a chance to do a quick interview with the band during sound check!
So, help me think of cool questions to ask the band. I wanna avoid really generic Rolling Stones type stuff like "what are your biggest influences" and other crap like that. Thanks! =)

Q: What do you think I'll say next? Sid Hoffman or Sid Frenchman?
Ask some personal questions.
Basically, nothing directly related to them being in band or music even.
Or to be more practical ask more common questions if you don't know and couldn't easily figure out. For ex., how did the band start? etc.
Hey sqook I'll have to send you an email later possibly.
Portmon is good idea. Here's a quick overview of what I was thinking about it:
Allow more than 32 ports, portmon.conf, allow stealthier SYN ping possibly.
Plus just from looking at the code a little bit I saw a few things which might have been off, for ex. failure to connect w/ tcp_ping() always says "connection refused" even if it could be a different error, close() in signal handler, etc.
Also if you want to allow different forms of sending reponse or report (SMTP mail, HTTP log, AIM, IRC, etc.) you might even consider re-writing it in perl.
