I'm interviewing a relatively famous band tomorrow... what would you ask them?
"How famous are you?"
>>60613345
answer is going to be "not enough"
about their music
cant be that famous if you're qualified to interview them and ask this question
>>60613335
"Gay?"
"What are your thoughts on torrenting music?"
"What is the name of your band, and who are you?"
>>60613335
>>60613355
I'm looking for a more "personal" approach, just discussing music in general
>>60613360
not that personal
>>60613362
this is better but a bit of a topical question
what are some things you find to be most inspiring to your music? what are you trying to accomplish with your music?
>>60613335
gay?
would you fuck your dad to save your moms life
>>60613381
whats the band
>>60613413
that's a good question, I'd cry a lot but comply
>>60613335
how much pussy do you get on tour?
or if there's a female band member, ask if you can be the band's groupie
>>60613440
they play indie-rock in the vein of early 2000s, it's the most I can give out
I'm looking for something general guys. Imagine you meet another person who loves music, what would you discuss about?
>>60613464
pee
>>60613464
"Yeah, I hate music too."
>>60613464
ask them why rock music died
>>60613491
I know you're trying to be an ironic cunt but I actually like this question
>>60613486
I don't think they're into post-irony, anon
>>60613485
where?
do you feel a disconnect to the hyperspecific micro communities the internet age has facilitated and do you find this has effected the way you perceive your audience or who you are talking to in a broad sense
>>60613526
might simplify that but it's alright
>>60613464
Ask them why they play shitty indie-rock in the vein of early 2000s.
>>60613335
find out as much shit about them as you can and then try to link that to their music or their image through questions
aka the formula for music journalism
>>60613558
it's probably because they like shitty indie-rock in the vein of early 2000s
ask them how do I get laid in the year 2015
>>60613584
I have tried everything I've read on the internet and haven't succeeded so it's obviously impossible
>>60613579
damn...
Also why are you interviewing them if you know the answers to the questions already?
>>60613620
because I'm looking for broader questions, not about what they play. It's irrelevant describing what a band sounds like to somebody that can actually listen to them, if I interview somebody I want the public to know them better, not to read the same premade answers they always read
>>60613654
Ask them to post their face when >band has two drummers.
>>60613654
ask em what they think about death grips
>>60613654
Ask them why the fuck they have so little ambition and play 3 chord shitty guitar music instead of creating something like "metaphysical twelve tone drone freak outs"
The last band they've listened to and why they listen to them
>>60614075
And if they think their band is better than that band
DID
THE
MAN
WHO
INVENTED
COLLEGE
GO
TO
NIGHT SCOOL
>>60613335
And you are?? (Be sure to ask the periodically throughout the interview)
>>60613335
What are the most essential tools you cannot gig with?
>>60614112
>>60614154
>>60614174
>>60614193
>>60614222
>>60614250
>>60614276
>>60614302
>>60614352
"What are your personal favorite albums?"
"What bands really inspired you?"
>>60613335
>The inspiration for the music.
>Story behind the band name.
>Congratulate them on their newest album release if they've released one recently, then ask them the inspiration for that.
>How famous are you?
