MARILLION: an interview with Steve Rothery (English Audio)

How do you approach long tours like the one you're going through right now? Can we say The Road Is Happiness, for you, or concerts may get tiresome after a while?

How did you conceive the idea of putting up for sale every single concert of the tour you're playing?

Do you ever listen to these instant-live-cds?

Right today, Happiness Is The Road is released in Italy as a cd sold in music shops by EMI, how do you see this step in the cd distribution? Step forward, step back, side step... A lot of musicians your age, have nostalgic memories of vynil and keep wishing they would come back as a music medium, what do you think about this?

And, talking about new technologies and music, the thing everyone loves lately is the videogame Guitar Hero, what do you think of it as a guitarist?

what drives you towards The Wishing Tree, your side project?

Your postcards from the road website is great... do you walk around with a guitar in one hand and a camera in the other?

Are you looking forward to the Marillion weekends at the end of march and in early april?How would you sum up in your words the feelings you get from such meetups?
