THE AT8FATES INTERVIEW (edited and censored version) by CORRUPTEDLOVE September
Look out...ROLLING STONE here, she comes!!! THE AT8FATES INTERVIEW (edited and censored version) by CORRUPTEDLOVE September 2, 2005 Jimmy paige, Jimmy Hendrix are a few that come to mind when I think about AY8FATES and his music. John,( AT8FATES) here at isound who fits into The category of many great musician of time, Plays what he loves and loves what he plays.And that is why so many of us have grown to love himand his music.I took the time this morning to chat with him a lil bit so we all could get a better feel of him and his musician beliefs lol =o).We shared some laughs and I think that we both learned a few thigs about one another.Which is awesome!! =oD He is a great guy and an AWESOME Musician. His ability to put play with his heart and his soul is what has lured us all into his friends/fans list.And into our hearts. I could listen to him jam all day =o)I think He is the white Jimi Hendrix of 2005 =o) LOL Maybe even a lil better (sorry Jimi =OP RIP!!) here is the interview that John (AT8FATES) and I had this morning.
Q.)How long have you been playing??? A.) "I first picked up a guitar, a 'Warlock' bass guitar, made by B.C. Rich, about four years ago, well,it'll be five years in January. Then in February of the same year my wife bought the Yamaha SBG 1000, and its still the one that I prefer even though I seem to have lost count on how many I have now." Q.)Do you prefer acoustic or electric/bass Guitar?? A.) "Well, thats a hard question-- I guess it depends upon my mood at the time, really. I dont really consider myself a 'guitar player' I just make sounds with the guitar that "sound good" together. I suppose the correct answer to the question would be "the electric guitars" since they seem to generate a wider variety of sound to 'play around' with. (CL)~ " You are amazing though on the guitar I can feel through your music that you love this and how much it means to you, It is awesome. =o) Q.)What/Who inspired you to begin playing guitar?? A.) lol "Hmmm, well, it would be easier to say 'everybody in every band ive ever heard' than it would be to pick just one...Hmmm, ok probably Jimmy Page would be my favorite guitar player, but then that makes me feel like im leaving out the other greats, like John McLaughlin, Robin Trower...Eric Clapton, the list goes on and on..." Q.)Do you ever get nervous while performing? If yes, when.and where? A.)"Thats the question I was hoping not to answer" lol "So far, ive only played for friends and family, so, yes Im a "chicken-shit", but ill play a tape or cd for anyone I come across." Q.)If yo could sit in on one song & play with one person/Band who would that be, what song, & why? A.)"I would say either Jimmy Page or John McLaughlin. The song, well, believe it or not, I dont play anyone elses songs...never have, probably never will, but I would REALLY LOVE to jam with those guys, though." Q.)What is the one thing in the world that you feel like you just gotta have? A.) "Money." lol Q.)That you feel most connected to? A.) "I feel like i am, most of the time, DIS-connected, from the rest of the world, I dont really get into politics or sports. I really get into religion though, so, I guess im kinda like a "monk" maybe, except that i like sex and...stuff,and stuff...andstuff..." (CL)~"LOL, Yeah there is so much stuff here to like =o) Great music great people and great well uh like you said stuff and stuff and stuff =o) LOL!!" Q.) Do you feel as though you have been a victim of discrimination, due to your misunderstanding with your bank and untimely credit card malfunctions?? A.)"Well, no, not really. I think it was mostly just a matter of a lack of communication skills, on their part..." (CL)~ " Yeah you know the saying Communication is the #1 key to survival." Q.) How long have you been here at isound? A.)"Hmm, well, only about...maybe five or six months..." Q.)What is it that you Love so much about being an artist/Listener here @ isound? A.)"I would say that what I like most about isound would be the members, artists and listeners alike. I love the people that ive met here at isound (with only two exceptions that i can think of, well, make that three if you count "penis-bird", and that fuckin'sick bastard better hope that i never do meet him)." (CL)~"Who would ever think that people of the world today would ever say that they hate (Penis) LOL, JK!!" Q.)Who is your favorite artist/listener ? A.)"Another "make a choice outta all of those that are so great" question?...Well, i hope nobody gets mad if they dont see their name cause theres just so many people here that I really dig...How many pages can this interview contain, anyway?...Ok, I think my "best bud" here would have to be "djinfla", great human being, and all around smart-ass, love ya man.then theres "Punk-is-no-crime", "Sugarmamabrennan", who shoulda been first, cause i love her more than "dj",lol ""shnap!" and "Blackacre", "girl_on_a_mission" is way cool, "lovesleemichaels", "mookster","Rtisx","ebozkurt"... "corruptedlove", and everyone on my friends lists!(CL)"Sounds like you really love your fans and friends that you have gotten to know on your way up!!" =o) Q.) Do you live by the saying "if it's too loud then your too old?" A.)"certainly..." lol "NOT!" lol Q.) Do you think my tractor's sexy?? LOL!!! Sorry I had to throw in a lil Nebraska Cornhusker humor. LOL =oP !!it s 4:19 am I get a lil loopy about this time LMAO!!! A.)"Why, yes, -love...I think you have one "FINE-ASS tractor! For sure!" lol Q.) what are some words of advice you would have for all of us fans here at isound and around the world? A.)"Dont think too much...Try to me more "nature-all", and my favorite quote: Always "Expect-A-Miracle." (CL)~ That is some very great advice and awesome quotes, =o) Thank you for taking the time with me today to let all of us fans out there know a lil more about you and your music. =o)!!" written by isound listener, --CorruptedLove Sept.2, 2005 "Drive fast,Play hard,Live longer =o) ~~~ "Hey isounders is there an artist here at isound that you would like to know more about?? Let me know who you would like the next interview to be on next week and I will take a vote. =o) Majority rules so stop in and post your thoughts k. =o) take care & Good Luck!!!" =o)
