2008 08 01, I asked Electric Orange a couple of questions
UniMuta:
Had
you heard of the Zappanale Festival before your invitation to play at the
festival? Are you familiar with the music of Frank Zappa?
Dirk
Jan Müller / Electric Orange: Yes, we first heard of the Zappanale Festival
at Burg Herzberg, in 2004, I think.
I am not that familiar with Zappa. I only have 5 or 6 of his records and 2 videos.
But I really love these records and I think I will get a lot more in future.
UniMuta:
Electric
Orange is the headliner for Friday, and the concert will start at midnight!!
Have you ever played this late before? And do you like playing festivals?
Dirk
Jan Müller / Electric Orange: Yes, we mostly play late at Festivals. We
love to play in the dark and in open-air at the same time. So this is really
special for us.
We most love to play at Festivals, because you reach a much wider audience
there. Club shows are great too, but generally these gigs are not well attended,
a problem for many bands nowadays.
UniMuta:
Do you have a
message for the Zappanale audience?
Dirk Jan Müller / Electric Orange: We are not as progressive or technical as Zappa or related bands, so we hope that the Zappa audience accepts us and our music and has a good time that night. See you there!
