INTERVIEW MONSTRE - WHY BOTHER ? "Sum up our life? - drab"

 

What is a Monster interview? Unlike the lengthy interviews we sometimes offer, it's limited to a few questions. From week to week, you'll find different recurring themes. It's up to you to choose your favorite questions, or to read the whole thing.

We don't normally comment on the INTERVIEW MONSTRE. But on this occasion, as I read the answers, I wondered what a Why Bother? meeting with S.U.G.A.R. might be like ...

Have fun with WHY BOTHER? !

I had asked them for photos to illustrate the interview. Their response was as good as their questions: short and to the point.

"Unfortunately a couple members in the band refuse to take ''Band'' photos, calling them cliche, lame and a joke."
