Thread: Cool Timothy Interview

  1. #1

    Default Cool Timothy Interview

    I just found this yesterday. It was interesting to read through!
    Here are some things that stood out to me:

    "I consider myself a singer first, and a rather basic bass player."

    "Here they were asking me to join the band outright without playing one lick of music with them. I was ecstatic."

    "...later on, when I did my first studio album with the band, The Long Run, I got to run with my own ideas. That was really satisfying. But I have no problem with playing Randy’s parts, and I have no illusions."

    This is the article:

    Tim seems like a great, down to earth guy. Not to mention his great talent (and his great looks haha )

    Thanks for posting that EF. Tim is so humble and modest!

    Maybe I missed it, but do we know which issue this is? Currently on the stands? I want to get it or order the back issue.

    The magazine is the August issue. I got mine a few weeks ago at Barnes and Noble. If you hurry you may still be able to get an issue at the book store.

    I finally got a chance to read this. I agree with all of you who pointed out Timothy's modesty. It comes through loud and clear in any interview I have ever read, and it's a great attribute.

    However, I want to point out my favorite part of this interview, when he's talking about the harmonies on Down Time. He mentions that he had the sound of The Band in mind when he asked Dwight Yoakam and Kid Rock to sing background, and darned if now that he mentions it, I am reminded of the harmonies in The Band's The Weight. I love it when artists talk about their songs!
