We’re sitting down with our guitar-playing guy, Joe Melillo!
HC (Her Campus): What are the main things you look for in a girl?
JM (Joe Melillo): Sense of humor, sense of adventure and someone that overall enjoys the simple things in life.
HC: What is your ideal date?
JM: Something low key would be preferred, but honestly as long as the girl is having a good time, then I think that sounds like a pretty good date to me. I’m not too hard to please.
HC: What is your biggest turn off?
JM: Girls who are really materialistic. I’ve had a little too much experience with that, and it’s never gone well.
HC: What kind of music do you play?
JM: Indie pop, rock, acoustic stuff— nothing too heavy.
HC: If you could only listen to one genre of music for the rest of your life, what would it be?
JM: I couldn’t really enjoy a world without The Beatles, so I guess I would have to go with classic rock.
HC: If you made it big and got to go on a world tour, who would be your opening act?
JM: Either John Mayer or Coldplay, but it would be much more likely for me to open up for them instead of the other way around.
HC: What is your dream job and where is your dream place to live?
JM: Â I would love to either be a sponsored runner, cyclist, adventurer, endurance athlete, or a professional musician in Colorado.
HC: What is something that nobody knows about you?
JM: I really enjoy cooking and I would like to write a cookbook one day in the future.
