someone (Mark Radcliffe?) once described Stuart Staples as sounding like a cross between Vic Reeves' club singer and Heather Small. It's a bit hard to escape that.
why they stopped calling all their albums 'Tindersticks'?
Ask him to promise not to do any more soundtracks with that french lass.
And just to generally play live more.
I really want to go and see them at the RFH, but don't think anyone else will go. Should i just go on my own? (presumably this would be more suitable for contemplative melancholia)
(although i wasn't really expecting a response from the actual band, it was more of a general query)
Um, how does the group dynamic change when they go from writing songs as just the three or so of them to performing the music with more (either live or in a recording situation)?
for some reason he knows a lot of the musos that work with me and he seems very bitter about staples and doesn't like to talk about the whole tindersticks thing
say to him from me:
'it might never happen! LOL!'
um.
no.
who are you interviewing him for?
Is 'Thank you for being brilliant!' a question?
I don't know really. How about "Did Vic Reeves' Club Singer routine undermine the credibility of the band?"
:D

you could ask
what they think of The National, cos although they're AMAZING, they're really really obviously tindersticks influenced to my ears.
Ask him
If the Fender Rhodes will ever make a comeback. And what Jamie Summers said.
I didn't realise the Rhodes had gone away
really?
I never even approached the national...how much are they influenced by them?

Cheers.
anyone else?
just tickle him
and record the noise
very tempting
but sadly it's a phone interview.
Oooh! Do that joke
"What's plastic and goes dead in your hand?" and then hang up. Tindersticks LOVE jokes.
what's their current live line-up?

I'll find out.
Thanks!

Well mr b!
Saturday 3rd of May, 20 squid? What would be better, the side of the rear stalls, the middle (but rear) of the rear stalls or the balcony?
I'm open to recommendations.
My question -
Local radio station Trent FM maintain that Nottingham is "The Worlds Best City", this being the case why did you leave?
Haha
I might just do that.
Although I hate people who quote from tv programmes
This is pretty much my favourite question of all time:
"Given that God is infinite, and that the universe is also infinite.....
Would you like a toasted tea cake?"
All those who know where this is from get both a solid slap across their geeky face and no love from ANY ladies.
**slaps self - notices lack of love**
What happened with Al Mcauley
for some reason he knows a lot of the musos that work with me and he seems very bitter about staples and doesn't like to talk about the whole tindersticks thing
