We chose our band name through our science fiction imaginations. We wanted people to associate us with space and virtual reality. Stellar, as in constellation. Vector as in art

Yes, we play live in Minnesota and Wisconsin and we absolutely adore it. At the moment one of our fondest moments was when Charles, the lead singer, disappeared in the middle of a song only to come out moments later with a Gibson guitar hero guitar (guitar hero is a video game for the PlayStation 2) and hit the next verse without missing a beat.

The internet and MP3 have already changed the industry. People buy music that they associate with, and the market has now adapted to allow that. This question feels a bit outdated. Ask us how we feel about cellular technology and how that's changing the internet.

Of course, a major label, despite contrary belief, still has the ability to promote to more people then the limitations of 5 people. They have thousands of employees that get paid to work 9 to 5 and sometimes later to push their artists. Who wouldn't want that? And why not?

We started as [space bar] and launched our carriers playing our first show in First Avenue's Main room. Ever since we've been winning audiences over and putting together our EP. Due to the nature of our music and the amount of money that is involved in putting together our dreams, the EP is taking longer then it probably should.

Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, Rush, Genesis, Radiohead, David Bowie, David Byrne, The Fixx, the synth revolution, and Coke. (no, they didn't pay us for that, we plugged them for the search engines.)

Wow, that feels like a personal question. If we were forced to pick we'd say the stage.

From a strictly live perspective we have 2 guitarists, Daniel Auger and Jonathan Ford who each have guitar amps that they have uniquely under immense control with various pedals and do-hickeys. We have a bassist, Andy McClure who sends out a wave of lo fi mead. We have a full drum kit that our drummer Mark Haider, pokes his head over every now and again (that's one kick drum though), then we have a computer that outputs 2 quarter inch cables that transmit a split stereo signal, we have our own D.I.'s, it's just easier that way. Then we have a mic preamp, and an efx box, that Charles, our lead singer, desperately fights to keep well in feedback control through the use of his fabulous in ear monitor.

Other then that we like to keep things a mystery. Otherwise where's the magic in music If we tell you all our secrets?

If you're a venue, we tip our bartenders even if we have a drink ticket. Ka-ching.
