| NF/ Hey Tommy how are you? TX/ I’m fine thank you…very busy with a lot of stuff such as the new Enemy Rose album that is due for February and my solo album as well…otherwise I run my own shop and my clothing brand “VAUDEVILLE79”… NF/ Who are your influences musically? TX/ So many different people and bands from the Rolling Stones to the Dead Boys , Ramones and a lot of soul and motown as well! If it comes from the heart it’s good…don’t really matter if it’s blues – r’n’r or punk or whatever , a good song’s a good song! NF/ Can you tell us what to expect from your new solo material you are bringing out? TX/ Not really this is all new to me but it’s all acoustic – to keep me in balance! My first solo album is called “Diamonds Are Forever” and is all about love and heartbreak…a very personal album to say the least. NF/ Have you any plans to visit the UK anytime soon? TX/ Well I’m working on it I wanna play England with Enemy Rose we just did Scotland but we’d love to play London and all…I gotta visit the UK for my clothing brand for sure cuz I gotta visit some wholesale customers. NF/ Cool, If you had the choice which festival in the UK would you like to sing at and why? TX/ I don’t know any UK festivals so you tell me where we’d fit in?! ha-ha NF/ Probably Download Festival I would say. Do you believe in ghosts and if so have you had any ghostly experiences you can tell us about? TX/ Can’t say I do but I have a lot of déjà vus so I do believe in a higher power not a God or anything but something…I also believe strongly in Karma! NF/ Which band would you most like to tour with and why? TX/ We’re trying to get some stuff together with Hanoi Rocks for when the new album comes out and otherwise I’d love to tour with The Quireboys!!! They’re fuckin' fantastic!!!! NF/ Sweet I saw them this year (aug 2007) they're amazing.What band are you currently listening to the most on your Ipod or cd player? TX/ The Quireboys!!! Some old Aerosmith and the Stones , Marvin Gaye and Otis Redding! NF/ Which of the 7 deadly sins would you say you are? TX/ Vanity!!!hahaha and maybe Greed cuz I can’t settle for anything but the best! NF/ What has been the highlight for you this year and why? TX/ Touring with Enemy Rose supporting the Backyard Babies I’d say and of course starting on my solo album! NF/ What do you have planned for Xmas and the New Year? TX/ Work – work and work!hahaha and a big party on New Year’s Eve of course! I’m a bit of a work-a-holic lately running the shop and the brand and playing with my bands…I got 2 more shows this year with ER and next year we’ll hit the road again for a few months! NF/ Thanks very much for your time and we hope you have a good Christmas!!! TX/ Thanks and same to you! |
