Phil X is the new guitar player from Gizmo; he's from Toronto but lives in Los Angeles; an introduction question:
Giovanni: How did you end up playing with Gizmo?
Phil X: I did the music for a Mitsubishi spot but the company told me there was a track from Stewart they choosed as well for the same spot, and they wanted me to meet Stewart and work together for the music of the spot.
I went to his studio in May and we worked together; at the end of the day Stewart said...
'Hey, do you want to come to Italy for a bunch of concerts with my new band Gizmo?'
...I was a little shocked and I said YES!
I have played with Tommy Lee (drummer from Motley Crew), Avril Lavigne and many others but with Stewart ... wow....I called Tommy Lee a few days ago and told him
'Hey, you know what? I will go in Italy and play with Stewart Copeland...' and his reaction was...
'Whaaat? You f**** lucky bastard....he's such a great man! Please say hi by my side....you bastard....'
Ciao ciao
Giovanni
