I'll harrass Birmingham Hippodrome to get WT

I think thats what it's called, I cant think of any theatres.

The Paramount here in Denver would be AH-MAZING for that. <3





I saw Evanescence there, so it'd be nice to erase those memories and make better ones Though, I did also see Tori Amos there. So that's mostly what I remember of the Paramount. I love it. <3

Bloody hell that place is gorgeous <3 Cant remember what the Hippodrome looks like but I saw Chicago there.

DAAAAMN! That's a badass theater! Such cool detail. Shit, we have one here in Modesto, which opened up some time last year I think, and it's real nice, but nothing compared to that one. Our's is called The Gallo Center for the Arts, but who the fuck wants to come to Modesto? NOBODY! But I can only imagine...Within Temptation.Gallo Center...never in a million years.

That theater is so beautiful .I'd love to se WT in a place like that

That is such a beautiful place.
I'd kill to be in a beauty like that.

Dont really know where to put this but seeing as there will be/ has been an interview here we go.

So yeah I'm listening to Kerrang all day now. You can listen here but beware they play some awful music.

I think I'm gonna end up having to listen to a recording later :-\

Same. Knowing our luck they have already played. There's no information about the times anywhere.

Sooooooooooooo...what time are they going on? Like, Pacific time? I NEED TO KNOW. PLEASE! I hope I'm not in school or something when they play.

They should be on right now but they haven't even mentioned WT

WTofficial Our interview + acoustic songs will be on The Kerrang Show, this Friday night at Kerrang radio! Sorry for the miscommunication!

Thank God I dont have to listen to Kerrang anymore Now to find out what time on Friday they are on.

Anyone seen the RTL Boulevard interview? Usually they get uploaded on rtlgemist.nl, but it's not working from there.

No TSF said it was on their site but it wasn't. And they said they were working on the translation so hopefully it will be up soon.

Found it



On one hand I like the fact that Chris is interviewed too, but I hope he doesn't feel insulted that he took the trouble to come and they only show him for 10 seconds.

Thanks Onno Nice little interview. So thats why Ice Queen was put to K3 Bless Luna.

Chris' accent isn't like a strong Liverpudlian accent, luck for him

I want Sharon's top <3

Sharon den Abel?

Awesome interview though <333 I'm so happy. And now those jerks who are dissing on Utopia can suck it

EXACTLY! When I heard Robert say to not worry, that their next album would definitely be heavy, I was thinking "so for all those ignorant fuckheads who were dissing Within Temptation because of Utopia, can now shut their fuckin traps and stop with the bitching, cause it's official!"

Anyways, I loved the interview. Chris is cool, like always! And I'm glad to hear, and see Robert again! And of course, Sharon too!
Also, was this interview from an actual major news network from the Netherlands? Either way, I find it pretty cool cause that mean's that not only is within Temptation getting bigger and more popular, but it seems that major and big networks, medias, etc. are taking more interest on Within temptation as well. And you know what that means: MORE people can know about Within Temptation in an international level, which means a rapid growth in fanbase.

That was a pretty nice interview .Ice Queen on K3
I can imagine Luna saying "Hey that's mummy"

Yeah, pretty much. It's on RTL, the biggest commercial TV channel of the Netherlands. Boulevard is at the beginning of the evening, so not prime time yet, but still viewed quite a lot.

^Then FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK YEAH!!! Woot-woot! That's awesome!

From RoadRunner: http://www.roadrunnerrecords.co.uk/page/News?news_id=85287

What were you doing when we interupted you to do this?
Well not much. I had to get up very early- I think around 6, 6:15. Then I pulled myself out of bed, picked up our manager and drove to the airport and from there just got myself over here [to the RR UK offices] by cab.

Date of birth?
12th of July dot dot dot

What did you want to be when you were at school?
Well it was not really occupied with things I want to be but more what I wanted to do at the time. I never really knew what I wanted to be because singing was he thing I loved most. It seems so far away to reach a certain point where you want to be a singer in a band or something, so that was not really on my mind but I was always busy with music. In the end what I came up with was I wanted to be a designer and that’s what I did before I became full time in a band. But my passion was music, always.

So what was the first instrument you ever played?
I’ve never played an instrument, just my vocals. I’ve been singing since I was really little and consciously I think from the age of four probably- really young- but it starts that way or it doesn’t. Its not like you think, when you’re thirty ‘I want to be a singer’. You either are a singer or you’re not.

First band you were in?
Well the first band I was ever in was the school band in high school, I think I was twelve or thirteen or something like that and I can only remember us playing ‘If I Had A Hammer’? That’s embarrassing that song (oh my god I hate the song) but we had to play certain songs for school. The first actual band I was in was when I was fourteen and it was called 'Koshiro’. It was a blues rock band playing songs from Stevie Ray Von to Van Halen, Journey- all kinds of stuff- but the guys I was in the band with were a little bit older than me. I was fourteen and they were like twenty so there was a bit of an age difference, but through them I got to know and love metal bands, all sorts, like Alice in Chains and stuff like that so my first introduction through that band.


What’s your favourite food?
Sushi

Beverage of choice?
I’m a wine drinker, red wine. But I must say I’m into cocktails lately- I love pina coladas! Biggest pet peeve on the road?
Probably the mess- you know in that little space of the bus nothing's clean. And I hate the toilet! So that’s probably theworst thing, being locked up and you have no space or decent toilet and everything’s dirty!

Track of the moment?
Nothing really at the moment. I’m really anxious to buy the new Alice in Chains record, because I’ve heard some small parts. That’s the thing I’m going to buy Next. I really need to hear it and I love Alice in Chains the way they were and the new singer just sounds so much alike. I think it’s totally cool they found someone that has a similar voice, so I’m looking forward to having some new songs.
Favourite movie of the moment?
Well something that I think people should really check out is ‘Shark Waters'. It’s a documentary and I hate documentaries normally, but this one... It’s the first documentary that brought me to tears, and I don’t sob easily. I was like totally in shock at the end of this documentary, totally in shock, (I won’t give away too much) and I think everybody should check it out.

What would you say is your most prominent career moment so far?
Ccertain festivals, of course- Download but also Dynamo. Those big things I really like, especially when you’re the unknown band. Then it’s really nice because then you have to really get a feeling with the crowd because they’re never gonna give in easily. You have to conquer! And also playing in America. It was really like having a second 'youth' for the band- like second time to get that fighting period.

One random fact about you?
I like K1. I love watching K1, totally addicted!

We all know how old you are Sharon
