Artist Profile »
20th March 2007: Club Fandango hits The Dublin Castle for its weekly dose of Camden FUN, featuring The Highs, Omerta, Situationists, and The Rivers. We chose one pop group at random to find out a bit more and pose some really difficult questions Parkinson or Paxman would no doubt be proud of.
Hello Situationists. Who are you and what are you wearing?
Daniel - a bath rugby top I bought when I was 15 due to sudden lapse of fashion sense. It suffices however when I grab anything from the drawer upon getting up.
Sam - Right now? A smelly dressing gown.
What can The Kids expect from the Situationists experience at Club Fandango?
Sam - Nice music interspersed with awkward stage banter.
Would you say your influences are mainly from the past or the present and who/what inspired you to start a band in the first place?
Sam - past. For me music ended in 2005.
What sort of qualities would shape your ideal band?
Paul John George and Ringo
What future releases do you have planned?
A single at some point. Then another. Then an album. Then a double album. That'll probably be the death of us.
What is the best thing about being in a band, and what is the worst?
Gigs.
Reviewing the critics - what is your comment on these comments: "Sounding a little like a more accessible Field Music or Good Shoes with a proper singer" and "This is post Monkeys/Bromheads territory but with panache and wit and not a little Cockney twist."
Fair enough.
What is your favourite pub?
The Queens Head, Belper, Derbyshire
Tell us a really funny joke.
Why did the scarecrow get an award? Because he was outstanding in his field.
