That's very cool. Is 'making sure they understand' a typical issue when interviewing bigger musicians? What would you say is the ratio of legit personal answers and canned
PR lines for a typical pop act?
I remember reading about Pantera back in the day and how they used to videotape ALL of their interviews to protect themselves against slanderous journalism. Ever deal with something of that nature?
Last question for now, you said you interviewed Soundgarden. Is Chris Cornell REALLY that perma-baked?
