The great bass virtuoso from the first solo David Lee Roth records is back in withВ MR.BIG.В
A supergroup of super musicians who reunited this year!
The incredible MR. BIGВ will headline theВ special radio Tangra Mega Rock night at the ARENA MUZIKA 2009 festival on 1 October.В
Six days before the show we hook up with bassplayer Billy Sheehan on the telephone.В Some excerpts of the conversation follow bellow:
WHATВ SONG WITHIN THE WHOLE MR.BIG SETLIST IS THE ONEВ THAT YOU GUYS HAVE THE MOST FUN PLAYING?
As musicians, ‘Colorado Bulldog’ is a lot of fun. But as bandmembers, when we play ‘To Be With You’ we look out in the audience and there are thousands of people, smiling, singing, some of them crying with joy. It’s a beautiful thing to see!
As musicians of course we love to play the wild stuff but we also really love, like I said before… we made a lot of people happy. You should see what it looks like from the stage when we look out and see the lights and people’s faces. Everyone is smiling! Everyone is enjoying it and it’s a beautiful thing!
WHICH PROBABLY MEANS THAT THOSE WHO SAY LOVE WILL SAVE THE WORLD ARE RIGHT?
Well, eventually it will…it looks a long way off, but I think it will someday!
The entire text of the interview will be published here soon. In the meantime, check out the audio file HERE!
