FAQ about LET LOOSE
Rich, Rob and Lee get loads of mail every day and love to reading
your letters. They get asked lots of questins, some are a little
out of the ordinary and have never been asked before. So, we
thought we'd choose a few of those more interesting questions to
ask the lads.
I know the lads
already choose theor own way, but I think it's okay if I write in
this home page about it, 'coz if you like 'em, it doesn't matter
if they have split or not, you're still love to read anything
about them. So, let's check 'em out now.
1. If you could have
written any song from any era, by any artist, what would it have
been?
Lee: "I think it would have to be
'Drive' by The Cars..... Oh no, actually I used to love 'Mana
Mana' by The Muppets! Do you remember it? It's a classic" I
think well think we'll leave it there as Lee burst into
song "mana mana" Er yeah, cheers love ..... say not
more!
Rob: Without any hesitation at all
"There's a song by Thin Lizzy called 'Still In Love With
You', I played it to the other two for the first time the other
day and they now love it too".
Rich: "That's difficult. 'Sorry Seems To
Be The Hardest Word' by Elton John. I listen to really loud if
ever I'm feeling down, but there's to many to mention. Some of
the George Michael songs like 'A Different Corner', or most The
Beatles' songs I'd love to have written like 'Eleanor
Rigby'."
2. What songs are you glad
you were never responsible for writing?
Lee: "The Bidie Song"
Rob: "Anything by Michael Bolton"
Rich: "Gimmick songs a lthough I'd never
argue having a number one with one of those, eventhough I'm a
songwrite. Other than that I really don't know."
3. If your manager said you
could have a huge lauch party for the next album, what would you
choose to do and who would be your ideal guests?
Lee: "I don't know, let me think.
Perhaps the Natural History Museum, seeing as everyone's
always takin the mickey of our ages. We'd probably all
dress up as dinosaurs and invite our mates, all the people that
have helped us oever the years.
Rob: "A boat party down The Thames
would be good with loads of loud music I guess I'd invite
everyone and anyone 'cause you always get blown out by some
people, don't you?"
Rich: "Get a big warehouse and fill it
with bouchy castles, the whole place would be just bouncy. Then
have loads of plastic cups and drink champagne and Jack Daniels.
My ideal guests would only be people close to us, family and
friends. I don't care if theres only 15 people, as long as
they're people who care and believe in us. It's a very personal
thing."
4. If you could play a live
concert anywhere in the world where would it be?
Lee: "We could do the first gig on the
moon, mind you it might be a bit tricky getting the audience up
there."
Rob: "The Buddah Khan in Japan, it's
the biggest stadium in the world."
Rich: "Wembley Arena is somewhere I've
always wanted to play, as opposed to the stadium. Stadiums are a
bit too far away from the crowd, the people never see you
properly."
5. What is your most prized
possesion?"
Lee: "This time is gonna sound really
pathetic but I've still got the drumsticks which I used at our
first ever gig. They're the same ones I use when we recorded
'Crazy'"
Rob: "My Harley Davidson bracelet. I
wear it everywhere, even if I'm just going out to buy a
paper."
Rich: "I always say my Mum, but other
than that it's gotta be my car. I'd kill anyone that did anything
to damage that or my family."
6. Do you ever read your
horoscope and take it seriously?
Lee: "Not really. I can't see how they
can apply to everybody, but you can always relate to something in
what they print if you want to believe them. I do however, go to
tarot card readings which is more personal. Spooky!"
Rich: "Sometimes. I only believe it if
it says we're going to do well, or I'm going to win money,
otherwise it's twosh."
Rob: "I don't read them very often, but
they can pass the time when sitting in the bus to a gig. It beats
looking out of the window after a nine our journey."
7. If the end of the world
was tomorrow, what would you do today?
Lee: "Partake in a gut, chocolate
eating, souffle stuffing, hob nob munching marathon!"
Rich: "Spend all my money. The rest is
too rude to print."
Rob: "Probably give Rich the £10 I owe
him back!"
8. Is there anything you
want but can't have?
Lee: "I love my greedy moments like
everybody. The lottery would be nice to win, and a lampshade for
my apartement.
Rich: "Xtra life!"
Rob: "I'd love to have a huge fried
breakfast every morning, but I have to watch the calories, so
I'll just have a grapefruit instead, and a mug of tea.
9. What is the first thing
you think of if you let your mind wander for a few seconds?
Lee: "My mind always wander. I'm a big
daydreamer especially when I was at school. I used to dream about
being a pop star and gaze out of the window a lot. Now it tends
to be a cheese and ham toastie!"
Rich: "Sex.......ooops!"
Rob: "I'm always thinking about my
schedule 'cause I can't remember what happens from day to day.
That's why I write down "I'm sooo organised"!
NOT!"
10. If you had to put an ad in
a lonely hearts column, what words would you choose?
Lee: "Lonely drummer seeks girl into
cheese and ham toasties!"
Rich: "Miserable sod, can see you once a
week, don't like going out (only with my mates), seeks sexy girl
with lovely personality. Answer on a postcard please, Dick!"
Rob: "Rob, Let Loose, requires lady for
romantic nights out, etc. POTENTIAL don't call Rich or Lee
first!"
