  • Sexist Garbage

    Just listened to the interview with Sharen den Adel, and I was horrified by how sexist the interviewer was. I mean, really? Talking about how when women cut their hair they look older, and how he was relieved that she didn’t cut her hair. Or assuming that mothers are the ones who are supposed to get the kids to school in the morning and make their lunch, etc.

    Like, what century are you from , dude? Sexist trash.

After 20 years, we've learned not to take things too seriously and to have a more relaxed view on social media feedback.
Niclas Svensson / THE BABOON SHOW
Q: Where do you guys take that energy from? Because it's not 100%, it's a 200% energy. How do you warm up for that?
We sometimes warm up with push ups and jumping, but often just start cold and rely on the energy we feel on stage.
John Watts / FISCHER-Z
Q: Do you have like a rock song of your life where you're saying this one just like defined or influenced me in such a great way?
If I had to pick one track, I'd say Lou Reed, Walk on the Wild Side.
John Watts / FISCHER-Z
Q: Do you plan on doing something very different?
There can be a setlist, but it'll be done in a different way.
John Watts / FISCHER-Z
Q: What brings you to the Laeiszhalle?
