An interview with Adrian Storry, the promoter of What ever Happened to P-Rock? and Eclectic Like Whoopi...
The Macbeth - Tell us about your new night?
Adrian Storry - The new night is basically a night where people can play whatever they want. I got sick of going to nights where the music policy is just one thing. My music taste has always been eclectic and I’ve kind of always liked every type of music and not stuck to one type and I thought other people might enjoy that too. Dunno if it will work or not but fingers crossed.
TM - Wanna tell us about the other stuff you do, P-rock etc?
AS - When I was growing up as a kid I really love punk rock music and all the stuff that’s coming out recently is based on fashion and they’ve kinda lost the whole punk rock imagery so I wanted to go back to how it used to be and kind of play the songs that everyone used to love. Everyone from my generation always had so much heart in it and it seems the kids these days don’t really understand the punk rock genre.
TM - What’s your favourite Whoopi move and why?
AS - I really want to say sister act cos it really is my favourite movie but jumping jack flash is another big favourite of mine, I think that’s amazing. Also really like ghost. She’s amazing in ghost.
TM - Favourite ice cream and why?
AS - I used to love tutti fruity ice cream. I don’t think they even make it anymore. Its just something I used to have as a kid in random sea side resorts. Absolutely amazing. They had those little sweets but they weren’t the same.
TM - Oh you mean the ones with the bubble gum inside. What did happen to them?
TM - If you were a member of blink 182 who would you be and why?
AS - Back in the day I would have said Tom and then he did the whole Angels and airwaves thing and it made me think he’s a bit of a cock, but I have to say mark now as he is the other coolest member.
Obviously Travis is cool but he’s not got the same wit as the others.
TM - Aaaand, you were thrown out of the Macbeth a few weeks ago. Why don’t u tell us a bit about that?
AS - Well, I have this problem with falling asleep in clubs. It’s when I get too drunk, I just end up falling asleep in the corner. As long as I stand up its fine, but as soon as I sit down it’s all over. The thing is that the minute I wake up I’m fine, which is why I had an argument with the bouncers.
TM - Well thankyou very much Adrian and we will see you this Saturday for ‘Eclectic Like Whoopi’
