Thanks very much to Sola for taking the time for that interview. good

The questions are well thought and chosen. Great done Meike Cool

In the whole we get some good informations, and I surely appreciate his view about the fans, but am I the only one who thinks that he answers very very "cautious" Question
I can understand that. He can not reveal something the band has in "backhand" for the future and he will not question any decisions of the band in whole or of Jay in public. Still, that's the reason, why I find some answers a bit thin and disappointing. Wink

Credits
I wanted to add that I haven't done this interview on my own.
Big huge thanks to the whole Jamirotalk.net Team for finding the questions and informations. Special credits to Diego, Brent and Yvie for editorial work and corrections, and a big kiss for Miran, who put it online!

And thanks again, Sola, for finding time in this busy period, to answer those many questions and giving us those photos from the concert in Belgrad! good

Great teamwork! Thanx!!! 2grouphug

Hello Jamirotalkers,

Yeah, Sola was very kind on answering all our questions, although he did avoid some of the most interesting quesions! Why Nick left, I mean, with that answer there's got to be something behind his departure, don't you think?

The questions are longer than the answers Laughing , however he did say something interesting, like possibles forthcoming b-sides on singles. I really don't know why he can't say anything on those 2 unreleased songs he likes Question This is a misterious interview!! LOL

About the question he makes... I'm pretty sure he crashed the Lamborghini, cause I have no idea if Jay crashed a Ferrari in the first place, so how can I know WHERE?? Just my opinion.

Anyway, a pleassure have done this interview with Meike and the moderators team Wink

buffaloman_R Hello, buffaloman_R

(Slightly blushes) Very Happy Your very welcome Meike, I was both happy and honored to be a part of this 2nd JamiroTalk.net Bandmember interview Very Happy. Wink I, of course, second that emotion and congratulate my fellow Talkers for contributing to this very thought-provoking interview with Mr. Akingbola Wink! The Sola interview turned far better than I imagined, such thorough answers and a real pleasure to read. I look forward to contributing to the next Interview venture on Talk in the future! Thanks again for everything and Peace!

Sincerely honored,
JamiroFan2000

I agree with you monisum, I had the same feeling while reading the interview. As if the bandmembers are not allowed to say "too much" in an interview... Sad

But still it's a great interview and I will sign for Solas mailing list directly - but the answer to the question is very hard to know... I will try to find the answer...

Well done everyone for making this happen. I'd been watching the progress of this interview and it's great to see it finally there at last Very Happy Many things can be made of it if you try reading between the lines, but as long as he's happy (and he sure sounds it!) then so am I.

It's really cool to hear from such a cool member of the group!

Sola has definately given some interesting answers, even if they were a little thin, but I can understand why he couldn't answer a couple of the questions.

Thanks Sola , I'm a Big fan!
