Rock Remedy Interview 9th Feb 2008

The quality is a little below par, but I hope it doesn't deter from the humour on offer here. This is another clip that I don't have a definite date for, but I believe this would have been recorded on the 9th of Feb 2008 as they mention it being outside the Wiltern in Los Angeles. This was during their 27 date tour of the US and Canada, and I'm sad report that Rock Remedy and Vlaze's websites are both victims of time's cruel onward march, being that their respective domain names are now up for sale. The resulting demise of the original sources for this means that it could have disappeared forever, but I was lucky enough to spot it and grab it before the rot set in.

It was released as 4 separate clips in 2008 and I managed to grab them all and I've joined them into one cohesive unit for your streaming pleasure. The interview is mostly fluff-talk with Ali MacLean but there's some wonderful weirdness to be enjoyed here. You probably already know Ed's, but do you know Russell's bowling name? You might need to cover the ears of any impressionable young people or vicars in the room when you hear it. Should the band get free passes to Disneyland because they got nominated for a Brit Award that year? Who would they like to cover an Editors song? Have you ever wondered just what the meaning of the word corker is? Answers await you. Enjoy ;)
