(Part of The Weekly Check In series)
I met Matt while living in Los Angeles. Matt plays bass for a living, which is pretty amazing. Right now he’s playing bass in the band Angels and Airwaves. I love him.
RR: What are you currently working on or just finished that you’re excited about?
Wachter: I’m currently working on cooking without looking at recipes. It’s a scary thing not measuring things out before you throw them in the pot. What does that say about my personality? Wait…you’re asking the questions here.
RR: Where have you traveled so far this month?
Wachter: My band has been home for about a month, but we leave on Thursday for Southeast Asia…Singapore to Jakarta to Bali to Hawaii.
RR: What’s your favorite music right now?
Wachter: The new Sleepercar album is excellent. I’ve also been listening a lot of old Iron Maiden and Metallica trying to perfect the art of the 3 fingered bass gallop. It’s going swimmingly.
RR: Best food you’ve had in your neighborhood lately or while you were traveling?
Wachter: Its a toss up…Senor Fish (mexican) in Eagle Rock and Tropicalia (brazilian) in Los Feliz….I could eat at either, every day for the rest of my life.
RR: Anything Else You Want To Mention?
Wachter: Libby, my lovely wife, and I are having a baby in May! Ok, technically she’s having it. That’s one of our pet peeves….when people say “WE’RE PREGNANT!” No you’re not dipshits. Only one of you are. We’re naming it Matt Rubin…boy or girl.
