Therapy? Q&A August 2007

#

Started by hoochalobster (Sarah) Super Moderator in General Therapy? Topics

Right folks,

Let’s have your questions for Therapy?’s first Question & Answer session posted here, please.

There’s no guarantee that your question will be selected, it depends on how many we get and if we think it’s interesting (and of course if the band want to tell you the answer!).

I’ll be closing this thread in a week (Friday 17th August) and the responses will be posted in a new section of the website.

So, be original please and hopefully we’ll all learn something new. ..

Update: the answers to 87 questions have been added to the site on Mon, 18 September 2007.

Apart from;
When are you coming back to play Belfast? :)

What are your views on universal records recent intrest in you, with the dvd and bbc sessions? and also does this mean there might be a chance of more rarities being offically released? and whatever happened to the dopamine,seratonin adrenaline music video?

I realise this may be the sort of the question the band cant really answer, but its something im quite intrested in so am taking a chance and asking.

Heres an interesting one:

Has there ever been a time in your careers where you have actually thought to yourselves: ‘we’ve got to call this a day’ or ‘I can’t do this anymore’?

1.
If T? was to ever stop, what would you do for work? I know Neil has his own label, so would you all continue to be musical and look at that route of promoting and distributing?

2.
If an alien landed on Earth and had never heard of you before, how would you describe your music to them?

3.
What is your preferred type of sausage, cumberland or lincolnshire?

4.
Do you prefer intimate gigs or open festivals?

Are the rumours true? Have Therapy? split up?

IF not, when are you playing in Blackpool? (sorry Hooch!)

What is your all time favourite Therapy? song?

Any ideas floating for “So Much for the 20 year plan?

Andy - Do you think drug use helps or hinders the creative process?

To the band - Why didn’t you play Belfast on the Semi-Detached tour? (I’m genuinely interested in that one).

Also - Could Andy please write the “stories behind the songs” for another album? Nurse or Infernal Love would be excellent!

Has there been at some point you’d wish that you didn’t arse around with the Semi Detached album. Good album, but at the same time, it was a cold period for us fans.

Knowing what you know now and with the benefit of hindsight, what, if anything, would you do differently? (specifically about the band, but if any of you want to share guilty personal regrets, that’s fine, too. :) )

Would you ever consider doing a fans only gig/show? Maybe an after gig party too? :)

Apart from festivals, aren’t all shows “fans only”? I don’t see why somebody who doesn’t like Therapy? would come going to their gigs…

heh, good point.

Maybe he meant “WOMble only”..?

But that doesn’t make sense either… WOM is free for everyone, so if you want to come, all you have to do is sign up.
It wouldn’t make any difference.

I’m personally a big fan of your darker and more noisy albums Like Babyteeth, Nane and Suicide pact.
I’ve heard Andy in Particular say that SPYF is one of the albums he is most proud of… Is there any reason why songs from this are left out of the setlist more than other albums… is not having the second guitar player or cello player a factor in this?

I know playing the hits is sort of expected, but with such a strong catalogue to choose from it’s a shame that some songs from all the albums miss getting an airing once in a while.

Cheers for your time :)

Altough I’m sure you appreciate the fans you have in North America, overall do you guys consider North America a write-off as far as future albums & tours go?

Further to that, It is my belief that the record company’s decision to delay the release of Infernal Love by more than 1 year in North America really hurt your fan base, as Therapy? were basically forgotten by the time it was released and your toured over here. Do you think there is any 1 or 2 things that contribute to the overall lack of interest in your music in North America?

@ Realityfuck…The question mark is because andy was stencilling THERAPY on their demo casette and he spaced it badly and he wanted something in the gap. He chose the Question Mark and it has been there ever since…
