Welsh rockers Evil i are the participants in what is the Easter bank holiday TSM Radio interview. Being that it is a bank holiday like me you might be working and this usually means double pay. This became a bit of an issue for the Evil i boys especially Miff who is the self appointed shop steward for the band. Miff demanded that the boys got free pizza and a jumbo bottle of coke for coming in to do the interview, unfortunately our budget only stretched to a few packets of McCoy's crisps and five cartons of Um Bongo. The issue was finally sorted when I offered Miff and the guys a quick look through the January edition of Razzle I had ...ermm lying around in the office, Bass player Chris was a little traumatised by the whole affair.

Miff: I thought Bruce Forsyth had died, but i found that he hadn't, i rejoiced!


How many times do you have to be told?
Rhys: Well I suppose it depends what I'm being told! But usually too many =/

Mike: I’d say once is enough, most of the time. Unless its stuff you want to conveniently forget – so, usually when my girlfriend asks me to do things.

Paul: Once more wouldn't hurt, but usually people get annoyed when they have to repeat themselves

Miff: 2.5

Chris: quite a bit

Who are you named after?
Paul: Seriously? The saint. But according to Wikipedia, my name is a dance.... "The Paul Jones is a mixer dance popular in the first quarter of the 20th century. The Paul Jones may be called for any social dance. The Master of Ceremonies is selected, and at his signal all dancers join their hands to form a circle, with ladies being to the right of their partners. At the second signal of the Master of Ceremonies the dancers repeatedly do the Grand Right and Left move. As a result, the ladies move clockwise along the circle, while gentlemen move to the right. At the third signal of the M.O.C. dancers dance with the partner whose hand they are holding at the moment. This procedure may be repeated "as the master deems it advisable." but then again, Wikipedia lies.....

Chris: Chris i guess

Rhys: Who's named Rhys?? Um... Rhys Ifans. Yeah, he's funny, let’s go with that.

Mike: My Full name is Michael Lee Simmonds, and I was named after Michael Lee Aday, Born Marvin Lee Aday aka Meatloaf. And what do you know I’m a chubby singer too.

Miff: Miff

Fancy Dress? - What shall I go as?
Paul: You? Or me? Well the last few I’ve been to, I’ve gone as Nintendo characters, Mario, Link etc. Lol, but that’s because I’m sad. Hmm. so I’d probably try and carry on that........ But I’m NOT going as the princess q¬_¬p

Miff: Helen of Troy

Rhys: Spongebob! Spongebob costumes are awesome!

Chris: ninjaaa

Mike: This is really bad but I once went to a fancy dress party wearing jeans and a plain navy shirt and told people I was Stevie Wonder. They looked at me bemused and said “Stevie Wonder doesn’t look like that!!”; to which I replied “How am I supposed to know what Stevie Wonder LOOKS like, if I’m Stevie Wonder?!!!”… I’m a bad man!

What would you do if you woke up licking a donkey?

Miff: Stop licking the donkey

Rhys: Probably be initially a little worried, but since I’d started...
Paul: Hahaha what?! Well I’ve never really thought about this..... Hmm... I’m sure Rhys has, and I’m sure Chris actually HAS done it. But I’d probably like emigrate or something hahaha.
Chris: wonder how it got in again
Mike: Make damn sure she made me breakfast afterwards and ‘promise’ to call her back.

I have a nasty gash that requires some attention, medical advise please!!
Miff: Go to hospital
Rhys: Ugh, I’m not good with lots of blood, um... I might have a plaster on me somewhere =S
Chris: dont play with knives!!!!!
Paul: Ooooh this is serious. Where is the gash? no matter where, you MUST keep pressure on it - Full stop. Everyone should be serious when it comes to injury
Mike: Listen to Miff and Paul!

If you were about to be killed do you think you would be brave enough to spit in your captors face?
Paul:
Well if I was just about to be killed, why not?! I mean not spitting isn't going to keep me alive Lol.

Miff: What would I have to lose, other than my own spit?

Rhys: Why not, if you were definitely going to be killed you may as well do what you want! Screw it; I'd dance with him too!

Chris: yes,i mean what worse could they do?

Mike: Is it possible to pray to God, Allah and Yahweh; and spit at the same time? If so yes!

Is there anything sexier than The Hoff in a purple porkpie hat?
Miff: Yes
Paul: Damn, I really don't like 'The Hoff' Lol, but purple is goood y
Chris: oooooo tough question
Rhys: Huh, you haven't seen Miff in a tutu and tights!
Mike: I’m going with Rhys, Miff is a sexy bastard

What's the best news you've had this week?
Paul: Ummm well it’s only Tuesday, so not a lot. Oooh maybe that we're going to try to put on an almighty show in Bridgend to liven up the music scene as it seems to be diminishing here.
Chris: my bass is working!!!!yay
Miff: I thought Bruce Forsyth had died, but i found that he hadn't, i rejoiced!
Mike: I got two 1sts in my University coursework, one of which was for a feminism module where I argued that people who complain about Pornography are talking out of their arse! Score!
Rhys: That we got to do an interview with TSM Radio, obviously! =]

What would you name a pet monkey?
Miff: Depends what name it looked like it should have
Paul: Spongebob, because it's the least likely name for a Monkey ;
or Mario........ Because there's this one episode where he turns into a monkey..... no, no, I’ll stick with Spongebob.
Chris: Charles
Rhys: Rufus. And I don't even know why. It’s just an awesome name.
Mike: Darwin! That’d be awesome! I’d give him a fake beard, top hat
and overcoat. And a walking-stick! Brilliant!

Could you tell me something the other band members don't want to hear?
Miff:
Children screaming

Rhys: I can tell you something Miff doesn't want to hear. He looks like Russell Brand. You know it, we know it. Embrace it, Miff. Feel the Brand. He will probably do something along the lines of killing me now, but hey, apparently I'm a Richard Hammond/Rio Ferdinand lovechild

Paul: Hahaha too many things! Maybe that Rhys' hair looks rubbish today? He’d hate to hear that, or umm that we call Chris 'CK' his last name doesn’t begin with K by the way. Maybe that Miff DESPISES public toilets? or maybe that Mike....... nope no dirt on Mike ^_^. That enough juicy gossip for ya?

Chris: I secretly have a 3rd armshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Mike: That eating meat is wrong - you blood thirsty bastards... and Fish counts.
