Panther should me some pics that she took from the Darlo show. One of them was of Archis. THE DUDE LOOKED AWESOME!

Clearly he's been working out and eating better. Seriously, he looks like a new man. I'll bet he feels like one, too.

Archis is brilliant. Nice to see some recognision of this.  He is easily the funniest member of the band as well, as can be seen on the two dvds, but is it intentional or not?  Either way he has perfect comedy timing.

But yeah! Let's have more bigging up of Archis and the other quieter members of the band on here, might make things more interesting.

Oh, Tom has a wonderful sense of humour, too. He took some very silly pics with me and didn't bat an eye when I asked him to do it.

I think I saw some of them on the old forum, there were chins and pointing involved or am I mistaken?


Anyway I propose that Tom, Archis and Duncan should exercise their humour in interviews instead of following the party line or sitting silently while Paul speaks (endlessly). Who agrees?

but I think that this rather fits to the kind of style the band has. they want to be a serious band and in my opinion it would be really strange if they joked around or told jokes all the time (like the bloodhound gang or blink 182 for example).


so I think they shouldn't change anything Kiss

I wasn't  saying that they should suddenly start joking around, just that somebody other than Paul says things in interviews, because for me it is getting boring. It would be nice to hear another point of view, or else they are at risk of being like Coldplay with Chris Martin and the other blokes which would be dull.

And it's perfectly possible to be a serious band and show a sense of humour at the same time.

Tom was really friendly when I met him, I didn't know what to expect but he seemed really nice and up for a talk. The rest of the band were the same. If Paul is the only one doing interviews there might be a reason for that. I can't wait to hear the new stuff :) With regard to joking around, they already do joke quite a lot. I've seen load of interviews over the years where they've been completely un-serious (for lack of a better word at 9am). The band aren't overly serious or jokey. it's a perfect medium. Great music and down-to-earth guys.

Yes! There is a certain brooding quality about him. Sometimes reminds me of old time film stars.

That's what I think as well! Actually all of them got their qualities and that's why the band and their music works so well… But I'm sometimes a bit tired just reading, listening and talking about Paul and Lukas! It's no big secret that I am a big fan of Archis and Duncan and I wish their would be much more information about them as much as there is about Paul. But I guess that's the burden of being no No.1 fan of the frontman…LaughLaughLaugh

Well, Dunc and Archis are probably quite happy about their situation not being always in the main focus of everyone!!!Kiss

But I don't mind getting more information about my two fav MP'sWink So if you know something i don't know, welll…LaughLaughLaugh
