Later on tonight we’ll be posting the latest installment of our new weekly feature where we give you all kinds of stuff that you can’t live without. But you’ll have to wait. For now, though, we have some interviews that happened already and one that has yet to happen. What? You’ll need to get right on this.
The first two things you might have noticed if you hang out on the message boards. So, old news I guess for you people. But whatever. Here it is:
Sinch deel 1
This is a video interview (part 1 apparently) with Jamie that happened back in December when he went with Tony over to Europe to talk to some people and see some things and etc. We’re still trying to figure out the point of that whole thing. Regardless, an interview was done and filmed, and part 1 is here to be seen. I would assume a Part 2 (and maybe even a Part 3!) will turn up eventually, but who really knows? Not me. These video clips appear to be in the Windows Media format, so there you go. Figure it out.
Jay Smith on the Viditar
Here is an interview with Jay by the people at the SXSW Interactive Festival, where it just so happens he will be speaking as part of the “Laptop Music” panel. Here’s all the details on that:

Trade Show Day Stage
For those of you who don’t know, SXSW is a week long music/film/interactive festival that takes place in Austin, TX once a year. If you live near Austin, or are going to be in the area that week, you can sign up for a free one-day admission to the Interactive/Film Trade show on March 9, 10 or 11. Obviously, you’d want to go on the 11th.

In other Jay news, he will be appearing on the TV show “The Screen Savers” on TechTV sometime next month. All you computer dorks out there know what I’m talking about. We’ll have more on that soon.
And finally, we have an interview that hasn’t even happened yet. Well, we don’t really have it, but we’re talking about it, so listen up sizzlechest. Our friends at Rokhard.net are putting together a new interview for us and they want to let the fans come up with some of the questions. So if you’ve got questions that no one is asking, send them in. And feel free to ask about anything. Don’t limit it to just band related stuff. Sometimes the more interesting interviews come from people asking unexpected questions. So, if you could just go ahead and send all questions to: webmaster@rokhard.net, that would be great.
We’ve also added a bunch of random articles and interviews that have been adding up over the last few months. You can find everything in the Press section.
