Stuart Dahlquist (Asva, ex-Burning Witch)

SPB: What is a city or country you’d love to play but never have?

Dahlquist: One city or country is tough because there are so many places I'd like to play and haven't...

I guess you could throw a dart at a world map and say ,"You’re going here, Stuart. Pack appropriately," and I'd be pleased as punch. That said, Japan would have to be #1 on my list of countries for a tour worth of shows with Australia coming in a close second. If that dart hit a city square on the nose I'd hope for the cold of Oslo or Reykjavik or the heat of Mexico City or Rio de Janeiro. If I'm laying over somewhere a good museum and coffee is all I ask.
