Gail interviewed me for Modern Drummer Magazine back in 2001. To this day, I still get compliments from all over the place on how cool the interview turned out. Thanks again, Gail!

Steven Gillis, Drummer, Filter
I had a great interview with Gail for Modern Drummer and it was obvious to me she came prepared. She asked specific questions about the songs and my playing on the latest Filter record, The Amalgamut, and seemed genuinely interested in my background as a musician. I could really sense she had a little extra enthusiasm for getting a great interview. I can't wait for the next one!
Judy Coccuza, Drummer, Cheap Chick, ex- Betty Blowtorch
Gail is one of the few journalists that actually care about their subject matter. I know this first hand. It's a refreshing change of pace to be dealing with someone who has knowledge of the bands and people she interviews and it truly shows in her work. I always enjoying reading her columns, because I know they are going to be truthful, humorous and not filled with ass kissing filler material the label wanted thrown in. She is the real deal!

Meeting with Gail to do an interview for my band’s bio was the kind of experience where I immediately felt like I knew her, without ever having met her before. She pressed ‘record’ on her mini-cassette, we popped open a couple cans of Bud, and proceeded to talk for the next hour about all kinds of things. That’s the kind of interview that all artists hope to do and, in-turn, it’s the kind of interview people want to read. Gail was totally prepared, engaging, relaxed, and most importantly, honest. Interviews shouldn’t be about what my favorite color is, they should be about what is going at the time of the interview… and that isn’t even an issue with Gail.
