Population Four's Si
Population Four are a band who aren’t afraid of getting their heads down and putting their backs into their music. With almost 50 shows played over the last six months, the boys are well on their way to mainstream success.
With the release of their newest E.P, ‘This Town Will Drag You Down‘, I caught up with the boys to ask them the 15 Questions We Ask Everyone; second up to the plate is Si.
1. Hello there little monster, what are you up to?
Hi, I'm currently sat in our practice room watching the inbetweeners and doing this on cooko's laptop.
2. So, tell me about what you’re here to promote?
I'm here to let you know about Population Four's new CD that we have coming out. its called This Town Will Drag You Down and hopefully will be released in
May. We haven’t recorded a CD in awhile and have just finished recording it, and its being mixed at the minute.
3. And if we didn’t have any clue as to who you were, what should we be looking up on Google?
You should put our band name "Population Four" into Google there you will find loads of stuff like our music video our my space, interviews and Rick's blog
that he writes for us.
4. And as Jacko had the Moonwalk and Elvis had the snake hips, what do you have that makes you unique?
If by that you mean the band, then I would say we put 100% into all of our shows, whether we are playing to 2 people or 200.
5. Now, clearly we need to get to know each other more, so tell me an interesting fact about you that no one else knows?
The entire film Forrest Gump was based on me.
6. What song do you wish you’d written?
I'm going to say Blow by Atreyu for this I just cant stop listening to it.
7. If I was contemplating coming to your show or sitting at home and TV, how would you convince me to come out?
I would say stop being boring and come and watch five idiots dance around on a stage, and that you would get a free cod that we give out at all of our shows
(did you like my plug?).
8. And if you were to take me on a trip to your hometown, what would be the first place we’d go?
Probably just to our practice room. All we do is hang out in there. You can almost guarantee someone will be there doing something any day of the week.
9. What’s the best prank you’ve ever pulled on someone?
We once went to a party where some kids said they could drink more than us. We decided to teach them a lesson and we said that every time we had a shot they
had to as well. But what they didn't know was we were shooting water and they were drinking tequila. About an hour later every one of them was being sick
and falling asleep outside. It was hilarious.
10. And what’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done? Please tell us how it ended up!
Nothing much to say! sorry.
11. If you had to date a member of the same sex (or opposite sex if the case may be) who would it be? Mine would ALWAYS be Angelina Jolie.
Joe Public. Had to get his name in here somewhere, and he is a fine specimen of a man.
12. Have you ever been naked in public? Elaborate.
I don’t think I have ever been totally naked but I'm sure I've been close to it.
13. Have you ever been arrested? Again, elaborate.
I once got arrested for stealing the crown jewels but the Queen took a liking to me and dropped the charges. We still hang out every now again.
14. Speaking of prison - if you were to send someone to prison for crimes against music, who would it be?
The Arctic Monkeys.
15. What were you doing last night at 11?
I was just round at Joe's house with a few of the guys watching Flight of the Conchords.
