1 Minute Please
When it comes to rock and roll in Bangladesh, Dio Haque is a well-known name. Named after famous metal vocalist Ronnie James Dio, the self-taught drummer has become one of the most loved musicians in the country. A part of the famous band Nemesis, Dio also experiments with other percussion instruments and likes to learn new things everyday. This week, the Star Weekend caught up with the musical aficionado to find out some quirks about him.
Name three of your favourite personal possessions.
My mind, body and spirit- one is never truly poor if they have richness in these three.
If you were given a chance to play with any band in the world, which band would it be?
Definitely U2, even though they are getting a little old nowadays. Their drummer Larry Mullen Jr is the reason I play drums today.
What is your favourite midnight snack?
"No specific preference here, but leftover biriyani is always awesome!"
What is the first thought you have when you get on stage?
I hope the drum kit is in one piece and does not sound like a tin-can.
Name one book you can read over and over again.
Harry potter by JK Rowling. Although it's a safe choice, but I've read the whole series at least 5 times, and it never gets old. A close second would be the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov.
What would you do with a million dollars?
I'll use some of it to go study some exotic subject, and the rest of it to travel the world!
