Posted: 07 Oct 2006 03:12OMG! He's remaking the Rhythmatist?? (faints)
(revives somewhat)
What a great interview. Man. No wonder we're all such huge fans of this man...
[quote]Andy and I are talking about going to Brazil and playing some shows with Milton Nascimento, which sounds like a lot of fun. I could get a Brazilian scene happening sort of like my Italian scene.[/quote]
And you could remake the Rhythmatist there!! What was I just saying about this in another thread? [preens]
Hopefully we'll get more fans of the movie on here, since Stewart mentioned we're all online geeking out about it...
[quote]I guess it's made me much more patriotic than your average American. Current administration notwithstanding.[/quote]
Jesus. I would just die if Stewart turned up on Colbert or Olbermann. I don't think my little heart could take the strain...I'd only have to replay it 150,000 times...

Posted: 07 Oct 2006 04:17Andy's music is "neat", haven't heard that used since I was like 5...He obviously wanted to say it sucks but didn't want to be mean.

Posted: 07 Oct 2006 20:19Hey Stewart! Great Interview.... So Rhytmatist DVD will be on stores shortly!!! Cool!! I never watch this outstanding film...only some edit pieces of the entire film...and I think is a great musical documentary!!!
I also noticed Andy and you will come to Brazil!!! Any hope of touring Peru??? You have lot of fans here... and also people who are hungry of listening musical masterpieces as you plays... How can I do for contact some peruvian producer with yours musical project in Brazil?? Miles agency probably?

Posted: 07 Oct 2006 21:30Thanks, Stewart! Very nice interview. Glad to read your feelings about Italy and Italians! 
Posted: 08 Oct 2006 02:13ooookay, i just unsubscribed my yahoo alerts. they've NEVER sent me anything this kool! i'm sure sockii can relate. stewart himself is posting links like this, whereas yahoo has sent me the same two obits and tv listing notice EVERY DAY (and sometimes more than once a day) for the past month.
what i really like about this interview is a true focus on STEWART's career, and not just a "what he does outside of the police" kind of thing. extremely thorough and informative. and damned entertaining! i love how he displays his enthusiasm for the group and willingness to do somthing with them again while still avoiding fanning the reunion flames.
for the first time, i am really excited about this multi-band project he keeps alluding to. this is mostly due to the much more comprehensive list of artists he names. i mean, i'm not a huge ac/dc fan, but they certainly have vital credibility even today. talking heads are awesome! and several other acts mentioned have made lasting contributions to pop. bring it on!
and finally... we have further confirmation on his future plans for the rhythmatist!!!!!
(hope i didn't hit ya on the way down, dive!)
okay, i've recovered. what we are apparently going to see is a true [/i]remake[i] of the movie. my guess is this is intended to replace the first version, so a re-release of the original seems unlikely. i can deal, since i do own a rough copy, with a possibly better copy hopefully soon on its way.
it does sort of lead to more questions, tho. like, will any of JP's footage be used? i want that damn giraffe race in full pristine digital quality! and the sequence with the lions trying to get into the cage is such a fabulous idea, but was really a missed opportunity due to the poor execution. it's obvious that stewart is in a truly threatening position, but there are only two shots that have both him and the lions onscreen together! this would not be difficult at all to improve upon.
if stew is using his only his own footage, will he even be [/i]in[i] it? i'm assuming we will at least be hearing his narration, plus i'm hoping for a commentary track too. while the story they invented on the fly was goofy fun (and all the more amazing in light of the revelation that it was largely improvised), i'm betting the [/i]real[i] story of stewart and crew's adventures in africa is even more interesting and could be far better executed in stew's hands. the real meat of their excursion lay in the melding of different musical styles. or, to put it perhaps more accurately, the proclamation that there is only ONE style, and hear's (pun intended) where it came from. and, hey, let's hear about that night in jail!
whatever he does, i have total faith in his ability to turn out another piece of sheer genius that will put the old flick to shame-- even tho i still love it![/i]

Posted: 08 Oct 2006 03:13I dunno, but I'd pay good money to see Stewart's footage of Gang of Four. I was just listening to one of their records the other day, and...forgive me if I'm not supposed to namecheck specific bands on here - but I could not believe how much it sounded like the Killers. Well, vice-versa, obviously, but their music has really stood the test of time.
I think that's a great list too, js.
<i>But later on, closer to the show, somebody pointed out to me that the Oysterhead tickets for that first show were being sold on eBay for two thousand dollars. Now. Those are my fans.</i>
I love this. I'm glad he realizes it. He may not have the breadth of fans Sting's got, but he's certainly got the depth.
<i>The human drama of watching the Radio One disc jockey, he's like super-triple alpha guy, sweating bullets as he sings "Edelweiss," horrible song but terrific experience watching this guy sweat through it.</i>
BAHhahaha!! Man. This is a good interviewer. I sure wish we got to read more of this kind of stuff, and less of the forty million ways they usually ask about the Police reunion.
<i>It's so much fun! I will gladly relinquish my credibility for the fun of such a show. It's only England, for god's sake.</i>
Aw, I like this too. A friend of mine has a tagline on another message board: "Happiness is realizing you're a hypocrite." Works for me.

Dude, you really should write a book, or at least gather all your blogs into a collection of essays. You are so entertaining - whether you are playing drums, composing a blow your mind soundtrack, sharing your home movies with us, or doing an interview. And I think you may still have some stories up your sleeve.
P.S. How about creating a New York scene?
