Interview from 1998. Source: Total Guitar, Issue 50 December 1998. Titled: Del Amitri - Not where it's at Interviewer: Jon Jannaway DEL AMITRI Click. "Hello? The monotonous 5/4 dialling tone gives way to the soft Glaswegian accent of Del Amitri's Justin Currie. Even though it's just 11 o'clock in the morning he still sounds cheerful enough to make the rain outside seem inconsequential. "How's it going? I'm just making a cup of tea." Right on cue, a chinking spoon echoes down the receiver. It may not be the most rock 'n' roll way to start an interview but it certainly makes an honest and refreshing change. And in a way it's a fitting introduction to one of the men behind the most refreshing UK rock band of the last decade. >> I was at the gig where this interview and article photo shoot took place. Bristol Colston Hall in June 1998. The funniest thing was, bearing in mind this was for Total Guitar, was that Iain's guitars failed to work for the whole gig. There were endless in-jokes including Justin saying to the photographer "this is how not to do it". Still a great gig though ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2001 15:45:55 EDT From: NIGELBLUES@aol.com Subject: OV: Re: oppositeview-digest V3 #79 In a message dated 22/03/01 11:18:25 GMT Daylight Time, owner-oppositeview-digest@smoe.org writes: << Congratulations to two of the longest standing OV'ers on their wedding today!
