THE SONNET MAINMAN NICK TUDOR!�
1. HI, AND HOW ARE THE SONNET OF LATE?
Frustrated at not being able to find a manager, sick of being told we are not fashionable. What happened to what's good? And we are fucking good.
2. SO JUST HOW WELL HAS YOUR DEBUT SINGLE SOLD?
We pressed 2,500 and have about 300 left so we are not too disappointed.
3. ALONG WITH TORSO HORSE, YOU ARE BRIDLINGTON'S HOTTEST MUSICAL COMMODITY. HOW'S THAT FEEL?
I thought KISS had already been done. Goth/dirge/regurgitated karaoke Sepultura bollox says nothing to me, the only person i want to look at with make up on is my mum. There only is one band in Brid who play songs. My amp used to go to 11 once then i discovered my voice, the most powerful instrument in any band.
4. DO YOU ENJOY PLAYING THE SMALL, INTIMATE VENUES AROUND EAST YORKSHIRE OR ARE YOU ALL PINING TO SELL-OUT ARENAS?
Getting gigs with no manager is an event in itself. so to play and be appreciated is all we ask.
5. WHICH IS YOUR FAVE 'SONNET' LYRIC TO PRESS?
"Would a soldier be giving up his medal without a fight?" ('All the right moves') b-side 'Perfect Sunday.' Its hard to pick just one cause I write so many great lyrics (no bullshit). I'm proud of them all.
6. WHY ARE YOU CALLED THE SONNET ANYWAY?
Sounds good, looks good, is good and it's nothing to do with the bloody Verve. I can't stand the bloody Verve, never have never will.Rrichard Ashcroft needs to dig deeper than just his 'miiiiind'. Theres only a certain amount of times you can mention your mind isn't there. Same with Brett Anderson and the words 'she' and 'gasoline', come on!
7. ARE YOU ACTUALLY SIGNED OR NOT? I'M CONFUSED!...
We self financed the single, the label is ours, 'Rooster Records.' No we are not signed. There is no justice.
8. WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO PLUG?...
The fact that The Sonnet are the best un-singed band in the UK. It's very hard not sounding arrogant but we are a fucking shit hot group with fantastic songs. The world needs to know this, we will not rest till that Coldplay shite has gone. I can't understand why what sounds to me like a bunch of 6th formers jamming in the library has got so popular. The Sonnet are here, we will get picked up, we will fucking have it, we are The Sonnet.
Cheers. NICK TUDOR.
