60 Seconds With… Steve from Clowns

clownshighres.jpg

So then, what’s the band name and what do you ‘do’ in the band?

We are Clowns, I’m Steve and I yell crude words into the microphone

What do you reckon people will say you sound like?

Bad.

 

What do you love about making music?

Playing live is where its at, seeing an entire room empty after the first 30 seconds of starting is really an amazing sight to see. But when people don’t hate us, the door money is awesome to use for drinks and strippers and I guess watching people go berserk right in front of you is fun to.

 

What do you hate about the music industry?

The music industry sucks, but what I hate more is when you go to Subway and order a meatball sub, and they slop too much sauce on it, then the bread goes soggy and it all falls apart, THAT’S what I really hate!

 

If you could travel back in time and show one of your musical heroes your stuff, who would it be and why?

GG Allin, Because he IS rock ‘n’ roll.

 

If you could assassinate one person or band from popular music, who would it and why?

Amy Winehouse… too soon?

 

What can a punter expect from your live show?

Shit jokes, good tones and broken bones.

 

What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?

Well we don’t have any more CDs for sale at the moment but our 2010 EP is on iTunes. But, we’re doing a 7” vinyl for our new song Repeat After Me, and splitting it with this wicked band from Perth called Them Orphans, which will be readily available as of the night of the launch, it is also available on iTunes now.

 

When’s the gig and with who?

The single launch is going to be at Pony, it’s gonna be an absolute party. We’ve put together a wicked lineup of our buds Old Skin, Foxtrot and Dozers who are all awesome. It’s on Saturday October 1 (which is grand final night), so get there, it’s going to be wild.
