Today we are joined by Mark Hamilton the Bassist of the band ASH.
Ok a starter for ten.Only Joking.
Is there going to be a Bsides album released this year, if so when?
This info isn't available as yet though we'll keep everyone informed as soon as we can on the website.
Are Ash going to tour the UK this year or just play festivals?
Were going to be doing a few festivals, the isle of wight is confirmed and we are deffo doing more
but again we cant announce just yet. as were hopefully going to be spending alot of time in the states there is no major plan
for a uk tour this year. though we may play a few select shows if we decide to release new material. (were playing for the
farmer. HINT HINT.)
If things went pearshaped in Ash what job would you fancy doing?
Could be a pilot, video editor, fire fighter, graphics designer, internet porn tycoon or any of thousands
of professions. jack of all trades i am.
Which cartoon chracter from the 80's would you like to be?
Fred from Scooby Doo. hes always pissed off at Daphne for hours behind everyone's back. the hound.
If you could make any law what would it be?
I'd bring back witch hunts. They sounded like a right laugh.
Which showbiz person would you like shot?
Jim Davidson, the ultimate cunt.
Did you have a nickname @ school?
In primary school, hamlet,hamigo,hamster,basically anything that ham in it. In high school i was
called whippet (cause i could run fast) and now it normally stick and bones, chicken boy or any wise crack about skinniness.
If you could play any role in star wars what would it be?
myself. DMH ofcourse. it would never work though. after id destroyed all the jedi's and rebels and
there would be no happy ending. the yanks would hate it.
Would you ever think of going solo?
on tour relieving oneself in an oppertune moment is vital for survival. after finding a location(
usually a backstage shower) thinking is only part of the parcel. theres alot to be said for a steady rhythm and a solid grip
when a soundcheck is in 5 minutes.
Who is your favourite band @ the moment?
RATM and Little Hell and im not getting extra pocket money for saying that. the new album RAWKS!
What do you think of george dubya bush?
it's too scary to think about. what with nukes supposedly pointed at 7 countries. 'enemies' stockpiling
biological/ chemical weapons. if it all kicks off i'm going snowboarding in new zealand.(i think
i might join you JB)
Whats your all time personal fav song by ash?
It changes all the time. cherry bomb is class live, but projects will always have a special place
in my heart if i had one.
