Favorite song in TRHPS: Wild and Untamed Thing
What is your greatest Rocky Horror memory?: Before I joined the cast, I remember going to a show in '09, and during “I'm Going Home”, Frank sat on my lap, I felt so special that I was being involved, I'll never forget that feeling of excitement.
I’ll also always remember when after a show, a girl came up to me with a huge grin and told me how great she was feeling because I sat on her lap during “I’m Going Home,” and she reminded me of myself. The fact that I was able to bring that moment to just one person is just amazing.

Favorite music/musicians: : Maynard Ferguson still gives me chills, but Kenny Dorham has some wicked solos, and Jazz w/ Trumpets and some hot, spicey Latin music
Favorite books: I am America (and so can you), anything about the Browns , the Galactic Football League Books and Novellas.
Fave celebrities: Tina Fey
Likes: Trumpeters who play really high notes, acting for fun, the NFL, video games (and immersing myself into the culture)
Dislikes: Bills, stress, and too many other things that aren't sitting in my head right now
Favorite web links, etc: Escapist Magazine (escapistmagazine.com) Great forums, great vids, just all in all greatness
Interesting fact: At my first Rocky Horror Con, 4.7.11., I introduced myself to everyone with my name, and the cast I’m on “Simply His Servants.” Everyone not only remembered my name, but the RHVets on cast were told about that guy from his cast who introduced himself. My official title is now “Ed Bobincheck, Simply His Servants, Damn Glad to meet ya!”
