Premiere Partie.
Suite à une erreur, on a pas tout récupéré. Durant ces 19 minutes, des questions ont été posées. Selons les souvenirs, voici ce qui reste.
Après nous avoir dit bonjour et nous avoir demandé si nous vivions à Paris, Maya a commencé à répondre ! Les sohodolls devraient surement venir jouer en novembre en France, et surement aussi faire la premiere partie du concert de Superbus le 23 novembre. Maya a répondu à Cams à propos de Shirley Manson (chanteuse de Garbage) en disant qu'elle l'aimait beaucoup et nous as cité quelques groupes par qui elle a été influencée dont Nirvana, T Rex.. . Le nom de l'album vient du fait qu'il trouve leur musique 'énervée' (c'est la traduction que j'ai de ribbed') et notre génération .. engourdie/endormie (traduction de Numb) tout simplement
. Elle a marqué son affection pour le groupe Superbus et a dit que sa chanson préférée était
Butterfly. Elle aime également Adrienne Pauly ! La tenue de scène fut également évoquée, à savoir si Maya avait toujours du scotch (elle a d'ailleurs demandé si on parlait de Scotch comme du Whisky ou comme du sparadrap
) sur sa poitrine et pourquoi ? Elle nous as donc expliqué que ca faisait partie de l'histoire de la chanson de Stripper et qu'elle ne gardait cette "tenue" que pendant 30 secondes durant la chanson en question !
(je completerais plus tard ! Dites moi tout ce dont vous rappelez !) Nicomuc avait demandé précedemment si Maya était revenue avec Mika en Angletterre (ou un truc comme ca .. :$)
[18:33:41]
Maya von Doll : ma mere est irlandaise et mon pere est libanais!! la france a donne liban son independence....il y a un histoire longue entre les deux pays..
[18:34:24] Cams : I have an other question Maya. When your started play music, and what instrument ?
[18:34:33]
Maya von Doll : i don't know superbus's first albums! i should ask Jenn to send me some! she has ours! it's only fair i suppose!
[18:34:53] POupee-FromMars : ( everybody ask questions int he same time .. !!!! slowly !! )
[18:35:01]
Maya von Doll : yes Adrienne is fantastic live i've heard! [18:36:02]
Maya von Doll : nicomuc - ha ha!! maybe! although a lot of people don't like mika here because his music is 'too pop' and they say he stole too much from the band Queen.. [18:36:47] @ xLilie : In France, a lot of persons love mika
[18:36:50] POupee-FromMars : mika is a crazy boy I LOVE HIM haha !
[18:37:09] Maya von Doll : Neither of my parents are very musical but they always listened to music. Always had Elvis, Duran Duran, Boney M, Sister Sledge, Kraftwerk, Soft Cell, Beatles, Blondie etc playing on tape (!!) at home!
[18:37:11] la pirate du 29 : that's right ;-)
[18:37:51]
Maya von Doll : Mika is very famous here too but there's also a lot of negative press. He's half French isn't he? Or he lived in France.. [18:38:12] Alexstar : You have just appeared in a French Rock magazine, you must be happy... the media are interested more and more in Sohodolls, Their impressions on your first album good?
[18:38:12] la pirate du 29 : he lived in France
[18:38:21] POupee-FromMars : yes
[18:38:22]
Maya von Doll : Ah.. my first (and only) instrument is the piano. Now I can plug it in!! I love synths and keyboards. [18:38:56] POupee-FromMars : don't you want to live in france too maya ? :p
[18:39:05] nicomuc s’est déconnecté le Dim 9 Sep - 18:39
[18:39:18]
Maya von Doll : so Mika is half American, half Lebanese and lived in France. Good things can come out of wars then!!! [18:40:00] la pirate du 29 : in the band, who write lyrics ?
[18:40:15]
Maya von Doll : I would love to live in France. I used to holiday every year in the south of France and spent 2 days fighting with my brother in the back of the car as we drove.... ugh... i feel carsick just thinking about it! France is beauti [18:40:34] @ Lutzy : and who write music?
[18:40:47] Maya von Doll : We're happy about appearing in Rock Magazine. Superbus have been so kind to Sohodolls! [18:41:16] Maya von Doll : Lutzy - I have written the first album but new music is coming from the others too now ;0)
[18:41:38] Maya von Doll : I wrote all the lyrics too! My imagination/fantasy.. life is boring otherwise. [18:41:54] jann : this isn't really a question but Maya, I messaged you about an interview through your MySpace.. please check it asap ?
[18:42:23] POupee-FromMars : you are a big imagination so
[18:42:29] POupee-FromMars : have*
[18:42:31] Maya von Doll : We appeared in Jalouse magazine over a year ago... I will find the little piece and post it on here if I can....
[18:43:08] @ xLilie : Where come from the name of "Sohodolls" ?
[18:43:34] Maya von Doll : hi jann - can you send me the message on here? i've already got too many windows open and don't want the system to crash! otherwise i will check later. [18:44:29] Maya von Doll : I always loved the name of the post-punk/glam band 'New York Dolls'. Then I started to go out in Soho with my freakier friends and I loved the area.
[18:44:36] nicomuc : (I'm back) Maya, why is the album released in 2007 only - I first listened to Prince Harry in 2004???
[18:45:11] salope krou a rejoint le chat le Dim 9 Sep - 18:45
[18:45:11] jann : it's not THAT urgent, you can check it later! the message's a bit too long for this..
[18:45:46]
Maya von Doll : Soho in London is both glamourous and dirty. Full of the rich, and the homeless. Straight people, gay people.. it's full of all kinds of clubs - rock, ska, rockabilly, electro, trash everything. So I liked all the contradiction
[18:46:37] salope krou : yo! maya i saw you at the scala far the anti-nye party
[18:46:38]
Maya von Doll : Nicomuc - good question!! we didn't have an album deal with Alan McGee's Poptones label in 2004. It took them a few months to do another single, Stripper in 2005. They wanted to do the album with us, but couldn't pay for it....
[18:46:42] POupee-FromMars : How did you meet superbus ? ... i believe that jenn have benn at one of your show no ?
[18:46:57] nicomuc : Is there an equivalent of Soho in Paris?
[18:47:25] Maya von Doll : ....so we had to find another label. A&G found us towards the end of 2005. We signed early 2006.. then we were busy with touring for most of that year and didn't get down to work til the end of 2006...
[18:47:33] salope krou : its was great but what happen with the others girls of the beggining?
[18:47:59] Maya von Doll : it took us 9 months to find the right producer! Robert Harder, someone who understands all the styles we like - rock, grunge, hip hop, electro, punk.... [18:48:15] Cami. : is what you took of the courses of song small girl? because your voice is really splendid
[18:48:51] Maya von Doll : Poupee - yes you're right. We played a London show and she came to see us and she introduced herself. She is beautiful! So chique, so sexy! All the boys in my band fancy her!! [18:49:26] la pirate du 29 : Did Jenn played in London in your first party ?
[18:49:35] POupee-FromMars : LOL
[18:49:36] Maya von Doll : salope - only serious musicians in sohodolls! rock n roll is a rollercoaster and it's difficult to hang on. [18:50:23] salope krou : ok i think weston is better
[18:50:30] Maya von Doll : Cami - thank you! i had singing lessons for a few months 6 years ago but they're expensive. i needed to learn how to make my voice louder because i am a quiet singer! [18:50:41] jann : my friend wants to know, elephants or pandas and why?
[18:51:03] Maya von Doll : La pirate - I wish! Unfortunately not. I think she was enjoying being on the other side of the stage for once! [18:51:16] POupee-FromMars : which report have you with your fans ( after a show for example do you stay with them or.. ? )
[18:51:41] Maya von Doll : salope - yeah! weston is better! he's got better hair that's for sure! and better fingers... [18:52:04] la pirate du 29 : lol
[18:52:06] @ xLilie : (better hair ! Yeah !)
