DANIEL
DURING THE EARLY DAYS........"Its like happening heaps quick and
we're like half spewing about people thinking we're gonna
be one hit wonders. But we're not gonna be"DANIEL
ABOUT PARENTS SUPPORT......"At the beginning they were worried about
us not going to school cos of what was happening with Silverchair. Now
they aren't as worried. They are good about it. They understand cos some
of them were in bands , Chris' and Ben's dad were my dad was a football
player."DANIEL
ON 'DO THEY GET NERVOUS THESE DAYS?'......."No its more of a buzz.
The worst gigs are when you are not keen on playing and you just get up
there and play cos you feel it is necessary. The only thing that would
make me nervous is if some dude was holding a gun to my head trying to
kill me,,that would probably do it. I don't get nervous."DANIEL
ON THE GOOD AND THE BAD OF BEING SO SUCCESSFUL SO YOUNG......"Because
you are so young everyone makes a big deal out of it, I hate that part
the most. Also I think that most people our age get bored of touring pretty
easily, sometimes you just wanna go home and do something like wash your
car"DANIEL
ON PEOPLE WHO DON'T TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY....."We don't care....Its
not as if we haven't had any criticism and can't handle it, we're
used to it....We;ve heard it all before they can hate us as much as they
want, we're only doing it for the music."DANIEL
DESCRIBES ANTI-FANS......."Every now and then you'll run into a
real smarta#*e . Its usually some dumb guy in a Metallica t-shirt who wants
to belt the s*#t outta you cos they hate your music or whatever"DANIEL
ON HOW MUCH PARTYING THEY DO....."Well, we're not really party animals.
Anyway you can't really party that much with your parents on tour with
you!! My mum comes on tour with us and so does Chris' mum and Ben's dad.
Its a legal thing cos of our age. It won't be so bad for me soon cos I'm
nearly 18."
DANIEL
ON CEMETERY......"Its about feeling alone in a forgotten world of
'good will and integrity' outside of a world of malice and hate."DANIEL
ON ISRAELS SON......." Its about an execution I saw on tele, I got
this video of an execution and I just saw it and I was watching it one
night and I had a dream about it and I woke up and thought 'Yeah that's
pretty cool' and I wrote a song about it."DANIEL
ON TOMORROW........"Its about , I saw on SBS once this documentary
about a poor guy that takes a rich guy to experience what its like at a
poor persons hotel and what its like being a poor person and that. And
the rich guy is complaining to get out and he has to 'wait till tomorrow'
to get out of the hotel and that.....yeah."
Quote
Chris' Aunty Shirl..."It's not my type of music but they're doing well,
I'm proud of him...proud of the boys."WHAT
DO YOU THINK IS SO GOOD ABOUT SILVERCHAIR?.......Quote the boys..."Nothing,
We suck, yeah we suck, pretty much........that."WHY
DO THEY RUIN THEIR EQUIPMENT?.....Quote the boys..."We don't own it....we
don't break it anyway, it's still useable. We just put a few dints in it
and give it character, yeah character!"
