Band interview cliches

[jagaruga]

mga tol,tulong. kelangan ko maglista ng mga band intrview cliches para sa isang article na sinusulat ko. eto example: interviewer: how do u classify ur music? band: ayaw namin bgyan ng label ang music namin e

[qroon]

Band: We are not after the money.

Reader: Oh, come on! If you are not after the money, why are you selling your albums?

[Endshiftresign!]

eto, cliche pero hinihirit ko pa rin kung minsan...

interviewer - what are your influences?
band/band member - DRUGS!

now here's some other cliches that do not amuse me one bit...

interviewer - what are your influences?
random pogi rock band - ah, syempre kasama ang beatles, eraserheads, rivermaya... (but when you hear said pogi rock band, their music doesn't bear a trace of the bands that they mentioned...)

interviewer - how do you feel about being pigeonholed in the emo scene?
random emo/screamo band - hindi kami emo! (insert long, usually nonsense explanation here)

random band - we try to be a good influence on the youth through our music... (pero paglabas nila ng booth, derecho sa paboritong inuman spot o magpapakasabog...i mean, i drink a lot myself, but a lot of bands, especially in the post-World Youth Day mid-'90s scene, could be so hypocritical saying that they try to promote positive values.  practice what you preach!)

thanks thanks sa lahat ng contributions. nasa band din ako. guilty din ako minsan sa pagsagot ng cliches. eto pa iba.

Interviewer: Tungkol saan ang ma kanta ninyo?
Band: Tungkol siya sa everyday life kaya makakarelate ang lahat.

Interview: Ano musical influences niyo?
Band: Actually, iba-iba kami ng musical influences. Ang music namin ay hango sa pinagsama-samang musical influence namin. It’s a fusion, you know?

after 5 years

Interviewer: Bakit kayo nag-disband?
Band: Musical differences

Band: We are not after the money.

Reader: Oh, come on! If you are not after the money, why are you selling your albums?

well kung indie ang banda KAILANGAN nila magbenta ng albums. magastos mag record AND reproduce ng albums. mahirap kumuha ng paying gig as it is. kelangan din natin kumain.

[Sugar Ray Vaughan]

According to a mainstream local band...

INTERVIEWER: Ano genre nyo?
BANDA: POGI ROCK kami!

And another...

INTERVIEWER: Ano genre nyo?
BANDA: PANGET ROCK kami!

(Buhusan ko kayo ng muriatic acid eh...)

interviewer : Sino mga influence nyo??
Kamikazee : lahat ng bad influence...  :

Dami kong tawa noong napanood ko yan..  search nyo na lang sa youtube.

Tingin ko naman, valid pa rin 'yung sagot na ganyan kasi "influence" eh. Maaaring hindi nga marinig 'yung traces sa music nila, pero ultimately, those bands might have struck a nerve in their brains to form a band. Now that's influence - making them/us move. Downside is, nagmu-mukhang "safe" answer na lang ito. Siguro kung ang tanong ay, "what are your templates for making music?" Templates for copying. lol


On topic:

Ako naman, mas naiinis ako sa mga bandang todo tanggi kapag tinanong na "idol n'yo ba si ganito ganyang banda" tapos kapag pinakinggan mo naman ang mga kanta, plakadong plakado ang panggagaya sa mga idol nila. Ano kaya 'yon, sarap batukan.
