Ugly
Phil: In the house tonight, a very famous band called Effigy.
They've got a couple of things out - plug, plug, plug! Fifty cents
from every CD goes to the Ugly Phil - save my hair' foundation,
so its going well so far. Guys, its great to have you in here. Introduce
your selves from left to right over here.
Jason:
I'm Jason. I'm the drummer.
Ugly
Phil: Right.
Pete:
My name's Peter and I play guitars and sing.
Cobina:
I'm Cobina and I'm the bass player.
Ugly
Phil: Absolutely! Of course we have an effigy because we have
the band Effigy. Now, I've written you a few questions out here
that you may want to answer in your own effigenic' style.
(groan) So (Jason), would you like to go first and have a look?
Jason:
Err..?
Ugly
Phil: Pick any one, any one. Okay...
Jason:
The artist-formally-known-as-Prince is now know as?
Cobina:
Love Symbol.
Ugly
Phil: Well, is that how you pronounce it? Fantastic! I'm glad
we finally got that out of the way. What do you think of the effigy?
Does it remind you of anyone, by the way?
Jason:
Its - its...
Cobina:
Starts with H.
Jason:
Its kind of Hansen-esk.
Ugly
Phil: No, in fact it is not Isaac Hansen, but it is a good guess.
Okay, who's going to go for the next question? Come on guys - don't
be afraid!
Pete:
Let me.
Ugly
Phil: Yeah. Well, we're well armed on this show with questions.
Pete:
I'll get it from the forearm area.
Ugly
Phil: Okay.
Pete:
What's Elton John's hair made of?
Cobina:
Polystyrene.
Ugly
Phil: Polystyrene is absolutely right! Congratulations! I'll
give that to you. (Hands her their own CD.) Elton John's hair is
in fact made of polystyrene. Yes. Hey (Pete), don't mess with my
girl. I'm going to take this home later. Who's going to answer the
next question? Who's gonna go?
Jason:
Your turn (Cobina)?
Ugly
Phil: Come on guys! Don't be afraid.
Cobina:
Okay. What is the postcode for Woop Woop? Effigy?
Jason:
000...0?
Ugly
Phil: No, sorry. In fact its 000-2! So, a couple more questions.
Come on!
Pete:
Sorry guys - just jumped in there. When is you're new album out?
Ugly
Phil: Oh, that's a good question. I like that.
Pete:
Er...well...this Monday.
Ugly
Phil: This Monday?
Pete:
Yep!
Ugly
Phil: Great. And you've been touring with the Mavis's, as well?
Fantastic! One more question before you go live.
Pete:
One about us, Jas.
Jason:
Okay. Why is the album called Century Collapsing'?
Pete:
Oh shit!
Ugly
Phil: Hey!
Jason:
Didn't like that question.
Pete:
We always get that question!
Ugly
Phil: Well, come on. Look, its a effigy doll asking it to you.
Let's not get too serious.
Cobina:
The world ending now. The Millennium Bug. All that stuff.
Ugly
Phil: Wow! Hopefully in the year 2001, you guys aren't selling
Disintegration'. Here they are! The answer to the Millennium
Bug! They're gonna play live right now for you on Ground Zero. They're
gonna play their new single, Suspicion Bells'. Ladies and
gentlemen - meet Effigy. Let's check them out live and absolutely
plugged in!
