Mit ihrem kommenden Album „Talk Talk“ unterstreichen THE FAIM erneut ihre Vielseitigkeit und untermauern, dass sich alternative Rockmusik und klassischer Pop-Appeal sehr gut ergänzen, wenn man das notwendige Talent und entsprechende Song-Qualität mitbringt. Kein Wunder, dass in diesem Jahr bereits Auftritte bei u.a. Rock am Ring und Rock im Park warteten und THE FAIMauf zahlreiche dankbare Fans treffen ließen. Passend dazu stellten wir Stephen Beerkens (Bass/Keyboard) von The Faim unsere 10 Wunderfragen An. Was wir dabei heraus bekommen haben, das erfahrt ihr nun hier.
Frontstage Magazine: If you could trade places with a musician/band for a concert, then
Stephen: I would change places with Mike Dirnt from Green Day, so then our band would have a much better bassist 😉
Frontstage Magazine: If one of you drops out at the next concert, but you have to play, then
Stephen: we put a picture of their face on a microphone stand (yes we have actually done this)
Frontstage Magazine: If you looked at your Wikipedia entry 10 years from now, it would say
Stephen: that The Faim now have a permanent residency playing at German McDonald’s
Frontstage Magazine: If you could host your own festival, then
Stephen: I would make sure there is a barista on every stage to make coffees for the performers mid-set
Frontstage Magazine: If your absolute favorite band/artist would play with you in the opening program
Stephen: then our booking agent would deserve a raise
Frontstage Magazine: If you had to do any job well for the rest of your life
Stephen: I’d be a food critic
Frontstage Magazine: If, starting tomorrow, every human being could travel back and forth to any number of parallel Earths untouched by humans, then
Stephen: I would find the one that is solely inhabited by cute dogs and spend the rest of my days there
Frontstage Magazine: If your biggest idol asked you for some advice, it would
Stephen: be for how I make my homemade cinnamon rolls
Frontstage Magazine: If you had everyone’s attention for 30 seconds, then
Stephen: I would spend the first 15 seconds very confused, and the last 15 seconds telling an awful joke
Frontstage Magazine: If you wake up tomorrow and don’t know anything about your band in the morning
Stephen: I hope I’d still like the music!
