So, I'm interviewing B0lly this week... - Page 5

runnersdialzero · 11-05-2008, 07:24 PM

3 questions i would ask, given the opportunity (being serious now):

1. Why the commitment to the skirts? Is it comfortable? does it mean something? Dressing up for machina was one thing but hes really made it his official image.

2. Any specific unreleased material to be made available? Is it stuff like mashed potatos/reel time sessions, FAEOMM, or is there more? Alternate versions of album tracks included?

3. Will the next album be composed of the songs they are releasing as one-offs? Including American Gothic? If so, would they just be inserted or would they consider re-recording, which was something he always said never to do but has broken about a zillion times. On top of that, Is there an alternate version of Death from Above? Will he leak the zeitgeist demos?

Seventeen years ago it was just the Edith Bunker looking thriftstore shit. I guess this is how he chooses to express that feminine aspect of his artistry now that he has buttloads of money to push the bounds of eccentricity.

Pasta of Muppet · 11-05-2008, 11:37 PM

He could be hiring an eccentricity coach.

Bleakest Harves · 11-06-2008, 01:04 AM

Ask him if there are any plans to bring the band back to Europe at any point next year. Would love to have that to look forward to.

Pasta of Muppet · 11-06-2008, 01:55 AM

Ask him about future tour plans in general.

Reyngel · 11-06-2008, 01:56 AM

Ask him why, in 2005, he said that he wished he had had someone back in the day to tell him not to dress like a "fucking poof," and yet in 2008, he's still wearing skirts.

I'd be curious to hear his reasoning.

can you ask billy why they recorded the entire album on tape, only to ruin the result afterwards, during mastering (or whatever). was it just for fun? 'cause it seems quite a useless effort.

wow. this is shaping up to be the least informative and dumbest interview of all time.

Pasta of Muppet · 11-06-2008, 02:19 AM

Zeitgeist demos is an important question.

Yeah, but not for an interview that actual people might wanna read in an actual magazine.

RealAudio 3.0 · 11-06-2008, 06:36 AM

What's the bet this interview will turn out like every other music interview that doesn't answer anything fans want to know.

You clearly read the wrong publications.

Either that or you mean obsessive-compulsive freaks on a message board by fans.

He doesn't have to in clude all of the questions+answers in the magazine.

Spaldz · 05:03 PM

Well just don't ask if they are planning to release anymore PASTICHIO Medley material. A guy from the hub asked Billy this after the last Toronto show and Billy told him to fuck off and said that that was enough questions from "cocky canadians". The guy is sharing a video of the incident on the hub of it.

Apparently not called Pastachio..that would of been better

wow, sounds like billy was in a pissy mood. Was this guys question in relation to the fact that glow and i think superchrist contain parts of the pastachio medley?

OwenWilsonsNose · 11-06-2008, 02:01 PM

I dont know why people keep saying glow is in PM. Theres something similar to it, but the hook is different. it may have been a take off point for glow, but the actual riff is different enough to tell they are seperate songs. I dont recall hearing anything like superchrist in PM at all.

ryoga · 11-06-2008, 02:22 PM

I personally don’t know, I don’t care for superchrist or glow so I never pay attention to them. I’m just going by what I’ve read online.

By jove I think you've got it!.

Spaldz · 11-06-2008, 05:03 PM

Ahhhh shit.

I'm sure when he spoke to Billy he didn't write it out though incase Billy couldn't understand him though so I think we are off the hook.

tcm · 11-06-2008, 05:04 PM

hehe yeah that was the joke

Spaldz · 11-06-2008, 05:12 PM

I'm not editing again until there is a new rip of Machina II..maybe slightly faster than the last..

slunken · 11-09-2008, 05:44 PM

has this interview happened yet? because it needs to be asked about the discrepancy between Glorious Ladies...(billy's version) and Gorgeous Ladies...(the real version)

werideatdusk · 11-10-2008, 12:26 AM

Are they thinking about producers for the next album? Kerry Brown, RTB? Are you still in contact with Flood, and would you work with him again? (Please?)

I bloody well hope not.

You edit Wikipedia, werideatdusk.

foxtrot2000 · 11-10-2008, 01:25 AM

"What is your favorite Rush album?"

tcm · 11-10-2008, 01:28 AM

d000d, it's Hemispheres. we've known this for years.

foxtrot2000 · 11-10-2008, 04:16 AM

wha?? Hemispheres is sick. they should have included a riff from side A and maybe a bit of Cyngus X-1 to the medley.

Gish08 · 11-10-2008, 09:44 AM

Ask him when he's going to play Geek USA again. Seriously.
