The Bleeps The Interview


PIMP: Tell us brief (true) tale about you which features east London somewhere in the story.
The Bleeps: We played at Hackney Empire on the main stage. Halfway through the show, a member of 'The Medals for Alcohol' performance featurette laid an egg on said stage. It was not meant to be funny, it was not meant to be anything but a performance featurette. Now we share the same brief story about east London as so many other people who saw the gig.


Who is the best musician to have emerged from east London?
The Bleeps: Best? I'm never sure. Possibly Brian Harvey/Tony Mortimer.

Someone asks you for your autograph. You say, ‘What message do you want’? They reply, ‘It’s up to you’. What do you to write?
The Bleeps: 'It's up to you. Love The Bleeps.'

What’s the strangest thing that’s happened to you while living in east London?
The Bleeps: I think it would be waking up in the model steam train outside Stratford tube after a particularly ferocious practice with Parker.

Which issue should be of most concern to Londoners at present?
The Bleeps: Hair cuts.

What can the audience expect from you at a live gig?
The Bleeps: They should expect it to go loud then quiet then loud again.
