The Silent Room

I can be a pretentious dick and say that I ‘hate’ these talks because they ‘reduce women to objects of lust’ or that ‘it encourages male chauvinism’ and all that bullshit, but I won’t – because I don’t really give a shit if women are reduced to objects of lust or if it encourages chauvinism among men. Really. Such things are practically hard-wired into our genes.

The first thing I should say is that they are very easy-going, humble and love a good laugh. I suppose that’s the difference between musicians and pretty-faced talent show winners – they make music for the sake of music, and it shows in the way they shake your hand, the way they smile and the way they obediently pretend the take a piss, just because this photographer said so.
