Jan Backing Track Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 I think he should stick with aliens having sex with monkeys, building pyramids, before jumping into government control.. just my 2 cents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marik Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 I agree he sounds/looks good, and def didnt seem overboard crazy. Im glad he's in good spirits. 1 more detail for the summery.... his goal is to build AVA up to arena sized shows, hopefully for next summer. Also, the video elements of the live show will incorporate all elements of TTS (animation character/ufo footage/ etc.). It wasnt clear if he meant for his arena show idea, or whether we'd be seeing this on small scale for the upcoming club dates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But didn't AvA play arena shows back in 2008ish? Is it common for bands to have to re-build up to arena-sized shows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSandt Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Tom definitely didn't seem one bit relaxed but rather stressed out, as if he's been moving from trailer to trailer and sleeping under bridges trying to evade government agents. It just never changes with this guy. Nothing has changed and yet he's convinced he's been proven right because of the "revelation" that the Pentagon had some guy in a basement office taking notes of UFO sightings. And what's with the Ford cap? A subtle hint that he's anti-Semitic? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking about that earlier, he's so obsessed with conspiracies yet he rocks a Ford cap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Yeah....I'm a Tombot but he went way off the deepened again in that interview.. "I couldn't tell Mark and Travis the government was talking to me, that's why they were so confused" ...right *Sigh* going back to listen to Rebel Girl and pretend real Tom is back..

NotNow Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Honestly that interview sucked. Tom was there to promote AVA and he spent forty minutes talking about the ufo stuff. I would be pissed if I was his label/Kari. The interviewer didn’t really ask once about the album, the recording process, how the last year has been in ava land, what the new album is like, what’s the plan for the release, when’s it coming. It doesn’t make sense to me for the interviewer to not ask about it in a fifty minute interview unless she was told not to bring it up. They spent 40 minutes about the ufos, five minutes on blink, and five minutes on ava. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kibbles Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 The interviewer never challenged or had a decent follow up to anything he said either just was like uh huh oh wow. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thongrider Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 There are only four possibilities the way I see it. He's insane, he's a scam artist, he tells the truth or he is the kind of idiot that has got everything wrong, but still actually stepped into some sort of secret territory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering he ended up exchanging emails with the Clinton campaign makes it possible.. I always thought he was trolling us most the time, kind of awkward when we realized he's dead serious 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
