Twinterview #1 - And So I Watch You From Afar
This week's online chat was a little different than usual - instead of our Rigsy doing his thing, this time you guys were in charge, asking questions to And So I Watch You From Afar via twitter - we believe the cool kids call that a 'twinterview'.
Good old Rory Friers [front in the picture] then - earlier today he took the guts of an hour out of his band's busy schedule to answer your questions - and here's a taster of what happened....
(Spelling and grammar errors are author's own, tweets copied and pasted!!)
****
Patrick - why did you switch from Small Town America to Richter Collective?
Rory - we just felt it was right for this record,no bad blood,just circumstance.we love sta [Small Town America]
William - given relentless touring schedule how have you managed not to kill each other/any good punch-ups?
Rory - been lots of punch ups but mostly ending in bromance..
John - Have the band thought to develop or change their sound at all for the second album? And hope Johnny's ankle is on the mend :)
Rory - hey John! yeah for sure,this is a very different record this time round. we super stoked on it
John - Nice one guys, really looking forward to it!
Nikolina - when are you coming to croatia? i was told it might be a good place to meet cool guys :)
Rory - we're hoping to get over this year.European tour happens post summer.I was in rojvin last year tho,was awesome!
Nikolina - yay! i know a lot of people who'll be very excited about it :)
Lily - When are you coming back for a US tour? We need you back ASAP!!
Rory - again after the summer we hope,we miss PBR and tacos!!!
Graham - Do you feel compfortable with the "post rock" tag or does that not accuratley describe what they do musically?
Rory - post rock conjures up some pretty boring stuff in my head,I guess we don't feel like that when we play,more like queen!
Jaseon - Any UK festivals lined up?
Rory - yeah got a few this summer,announced so far in 2000Trees,headlining the second stage,more to come tho:)
Jaseon - nice :) hoping for Download ^_^
Pocket Billiards - Did any of you steal Savage's mustache? He can't find it anywhere
Rory - I think Adger hid it in his beard
Orla - are you going to re-release the letters EP? i want it.
Rory - bringing a ltd Ed double cd out on try next tour with album and EP.not sure if we'll do letters again?
Orla - double CD sounds good! I should probably just download the letters EP....
Wilson - Has chris Wee ever bench pressed a child?
Rory - he bench pressed me at his peek....no jokes
Josh - weirdest tour moment?
Rory - lorry exploding infront of us?drinking comp with Josh Homme? bribing police!
John - Is it true that Robert Plant showed up for some of the TCV [These Crooked Vultures] support gigs you played? What was it like being near half of Led Zep?
Rory - we never met him,but JPJ [John Paul Jones - Led Zeppelin/TCV Bassist] was a legend, I sat up drinking with him one night and we had a heart to heart, total dude
Alex - favourite 80s cartoon?
Rory - thundercats.....duh??!
Dolphin Bombers - will yous ever be seduced by the pop charts and start using vocals on your songs?
Rory - ha! we'll have vocals again I'm sure, not for the pop charts tho...prob just for the women
Conal - why are you taken off Spotify :(
Rory - it's all stuff to do with the label change,we'll be back up soon....promise:) !!
Rory - Thanks all!! Sorry I didn't get everything answered,great steam tho,i feel very 21st century!!!
****
So there you go - thanks loads to Rory for that! And So I Watch You From Afar, now signed to Dublin label Richter Collective, will release thier long awaited second album this May.
