This is absolutely one of the best interviews I have ever seen. The interviewer isnt asking asinine questions and interrupting those he is interviewing. He adds relevant comments and notes to what Josh and Troy are saying. Its just great. Its a lost art really. So many people that interview musicians today are so idiotic and ask either really basic or stupid random questions and then interrupt the whole time, like its more about them than the artists. Well done Alan Cross. Well done.
also i love how the two of them, as soon as the interveiwer asks the color questions, both of em just say "plaid" like they've been waiting for the questions
B4YouGoFilms - first QotSA i heard was Rated R. local radio played a couple tunes from it (Better Living and Lost Art), and have liked them since. i got the first record not long after its re-release. i remember thinking Stone Gossard was a fucking genius for signing the band. one of the best debuts i've ever heard.
@theenigmajjames Ye - Sure, but I saw them after that interview live and Josh had let his hair grow a bit since then; he's a little slimmer these days too after touring but back then our man was looking a bit well fed, methinks. Touring can knock punds off in a month, let alone a few... ;)
Troy was in A Perfect Circle, he must be high standard to be with Maynard. No offence to Maynard, I love Tool, he just seems like he has high standards for his musicians xD
I hope all of you talking about Josh being fat are happy that he's slimmed down again.Anyways fantastic interview with two of the worlds best musicians
@davyro66 LOL! Yeah, it's totally insignificant - It was more of a piss-taking off the cuff thing from me originally; Josh is a big fucking fella - Troy looks small next to him. In the end, I don't really care whether he's a bloater or a bean pole; he's fucking incredible. It is a great interview - theenigmajames is right.
@TooChillWill Yeah - He's looking a little portly; he had that weird hair cut then too. Thankfully, he got a little leaner again... Meh; I don't care if he grows to be a monster - Fucking love them all.

You think you can't love them any harder and then you watch this interview. Thank you Josh, Troy, Alan. Best band in the world right now.

Great interview Alan! This is the most candid I've ever seen/heard Josh and Troy and this has been awesome!
Cheers!
I bought the record in question after "Like Clockwork..." and it sure as fuck holds up. Amazing debut.

A genius music creator, and a genius to sign one of the best current rock bands
what a fantastic interview!
One of the best interviews out there.
How to Handle a Rope rocks..One of their best...
this interview makes all the right questions!!! thank you so much !!!!
"...oh, there's this stuff called 'being a musician'..."
need. more. desert. sessions.
incredible interview!
I'm just loving Troy's white shoe. When is his clothing line coming out? I'm there.
Man, Josh is so fucking cool it makes me feel insignificant.
I believe the record he is talking about it is actually "Montrose: Jump On It"
Alan, you are amazing for asking my question at 10:15
That was a nice and chill interview. Lots of Musical Philosophy thrown around.
These guys never seem to not Inspire Me.
Their music is violet, goddamit...

great boston reference right there
Troy was in A Perfect Circle, he must be high standard to be with Maynard. No offence to Maynard, I love Tool, he just seems like he has high standards for his musicians xD
He's worked with MJK on both A Perfect Circle and Puscifer so I'd like to think yes
that's the first rockstar not caring about his hair
There's this thing called being a musician.
Can anyone direct me to some live footage of that "first album revisited" tour? Preferably a whole show. I don't find anything....
i looked all over the page to see if someone mentioned that
i love how josh always rocks different fucked up haircuts...
junkeposse he looks more like Troy here
@brossive Dude, you're my hero.
@RectoBold you do realize that this is a newer interview right?? from just a few months ago?
Playing leads exactly? He didn't play them exactly in the summer of 98 even. Homme talks about the Kyuss reunion being "awesome" at 15:50.
best burn from Homme at 10:55 haha
*Goes out and buys Joop*
@IamLudes what do you want him to be like ?
@mimickick i like the eagles of death metal reference :D
i use joop. awesome
I hope all of you talking about Josh being fat are happy that he's slimmed down again.Anyways fantastic interview with two of the worlds best musicians
as for josh's weight I think he looks healthy. Would you rather he be 90lbs at deaths door? Grow up
@davyro66 LOL! Yeah, it's totally insignificant - It was more of a piss-taking off the cuff thing from me originally; Josh is a big fucking fella - Troy looks small next to him.

ah. this thing still picks lettuce
And now there's 'Joop Homme' Coincidence? I think not.
10:55-11:00.. laughed my ass off..
6:09
Daddy!
Josh or Troy?
Is it me or... Someone's getting soft
/watch?v=LJvvxEs1_pE lol
