Question: What’s your favorite song you’ve written?
Robbins: I’d probably say it’s a song called “Surgery.” It would be my favorite because of the story behind it. I wrote it about my dad when he was diagnosed with cancer, so it’s a story that always kind of gets to me and I think that’s a big part of a good song.
Q: Who’s the most memorable fan you’ve met?
R: I met a girl on the last tour I did with The Scene Aesthetic, and she had actually made cute shirts for her friends that had my face on them, which is far from the normal thing for me. But I thought it was awesome so we ended up letting her hang out and get food with us and stuff.
Q: Who is your favorite artist?
R: I’m a huge Tom Petty fan just because I was raised around him. He’s probably one of the best song writers of the past 40 years.
Q: What’s your favorite movie?
R: In all honesty I’ve watched almost every movie that has ever come out and there are few that I haven’t enjoyed. So I’ll just pick “all movies”.
Q: What is the one thing you can’t tolerate?
R: I’m not a fan of super loud cell phone talking. I feel like it makes everyone very uncomfortable and people shouldn’t do it.
Q: If you could become invisible, what is the one thing you would like to do?
R: I guess people watch. Nothing creepy or sketchy, I just really like to watch people and the way that they act. So it’d be interesting to watch them when they don’t know you’re there.
