Kerrang! Interview - 28/4/2010

[anguria]

he was fat for like the past 10 years til just recently, and he has been harassed for it since day one, its just now when he is skinny
he can talk about it. thats not brave

He could pretend it never happened. It would have been ridiculous if he said he was fat while he was. Can you imagine it?

Chino: "I am overweight."
Interviewer: "Uh... Yes."

to let yourself go psychically like he did, when he is a singer a performer - it get consequences. he didnt sing aswell,  his stage performance was lazy and sloppy, and the songs that required lots of enegry and songs that needed high notes suffered
enormously for the weight. he now says he take care of himself and he therefor feels better and if he feels better the creativity goes up.  to be able to talk about that problem _while youre in it_ is BRAVE, to act like everything is fine is not. to talk about it after that period isnt so brave either

[anguria]

to be able to talk about that problem _while youre in it_ is BRAVE,

No, it is pathetic, and pointless too. What could an interviewer do, suggest a diet? Come on!

[jesusinabowlofdirt]

you thought of it as brave when chino talked about his gone weight now- well in that case i think it would have been more brave to talk about it back then when it affected the band and he was in the shit.it would be harder for him-therefor more to admire

[anguria]

It would have been harder for him, I agree. But I don't admire much people whining, so for me it's better like he did!

[jesusinabowlofdirt]

ok but the issue here was the braveness, not if you like whining or not. but since u brought it up, there's nothing saying he would whine about it, one can talk about problems without going buhu

[Vesanic]

Chino's thin and he knows it, period.

[jesusinabowlofdirt]

Chino's sexy and i know it, period.

this isnt really about the weight itself, its about bravenss. could have been about drug addiction insted, same arguments

[Vesanic]

Oh I know. Nothing " brave " in his step. Maybe it would have been brave to say " I've gone way too far and now I look like a pig " during the fatass days, but now, it's pretty easy.

Also, this is why Stephen's side projects suck.   

Steph: ''In six months time, after we release a record, it will be dead anyway. They're just songs. I'm not married to them, they're a dime a dozen to me''

haha!

He's right though, when writing your own shit, it gets boring after a while. The only exciting part is playing them live. Which is why despite all the crap they've gone through, they've come back to play. If they strictly did recordings and rarely any shows they'd be long gone!

[Far away]

Thanks for the good reading subliminal. This is probably the best interview i read from them, pretty honest answers and NOW i know i was right about feeling something weird back in ST/SNW era.

Good to know that despite Chi's situation, they are in a better place.
Keep going!!!
