      Greetings, all.

      Don’t mean to make this sound like a plug, but I felt that J’s fans might be interested in the interview that we (Project X) conducted with Mike Watt that started going up on Monday.

      Here’s the URL: A Conversation With Mike Watt, Part 1 — Project X (proj-ex.net)

      Thanks!

          Thanks, Jerimiah! It’s all much appreciated.

          For everyone else, Part 2 just went up this morning at http://www.proj-ex.net/article1050.html — enjoy!

          Please let me know what you think of the spiel so far at <A>cj@cjmarsicano.com</A>

            S-guy,

            Glad you’re digging the interview. Wait till you see tomorrow’s segment — if your comments on today’s installment are any indication, you’ll probably cream like a fanboy [img]images/smiles/converted/smile.gif[/img] Hell, I was trying not to the entire time I was spieling with Watt on the phone!

                  No problem, [img]images/smiles/converted/wink.gif[/img]

                  I just like your style of interview, real ‘person-to-person’, instead of ‘interview-guy-to-punk-rock-legend’ kind of thing. I’ve noticed from other articles and such that Watt seems to respond better if people talk to him as if they had always been friends. [img]images/smiles/converted/cool.gif[/img]

                          Mike told me at the end of the interview that he thinks I got a lot out of him that he didn’t think he could have said alone. When I e-mailed him to thank him (after listening to the tape and reacting like this — [img]images/smiles/converted/eek.gif[/img] — ’cause I couldn’t believe I had talked to him!) he also declared me to be "a great spieler"! [img]images/smiles/converted/smile.gif[/img] Lovely man.

                              And what’s funnier is, Watt was describing Joey Ramone’s attitude towards life when he said that [img]images/smiles/converted/smile.gif[/img]

                                Hey,

                                Wow I like that quote even more know, talking about Joey Ramones view on life…Watt is just too cool. Pedro slang in french…should be hilarious…thank god I have the glossary and a french dictionary. He used a phrase that described us Canadians well once…people from the land of ice and snow..or something like that…its zeppelin but I much prefer the Watt version. Although I always think of Calgary…cowtown…as the cowboy centre of the Canadian universe [img]images/smiles/converted/eek.gif[/img]

                                Really looking forward to Watt’s spiel on the current music scene…thanks tons for this!!!
                                I agree with Mattman, the style of your questions definitely got the best out of Watt…congrats.

                                  Thanks for this man;it`s great!Watt always has alot of cool stuff to say.
                                  Like when you mentioned jazz fusion,I had some friends like that thinking jazz fusion was it and punk sucked;I always tried to defend it but they would`nt listen,never see those friends anymore!
                                  Can`t wait to read about Watt`s love of jazz;I was a huge jazz fan before punk/indie rock hit me so it`s cool to hear someone that likes both.
