Translation : 20 questions to Shannon Leto A year and a half after « this is war » album release, the verdict was rendered : the epic third sound of 30 seconds to mars was a hit in the entire world, Determined to not stop here, 30 seconds to mars was in Paris in June to celebrate « this is war » new edition release (with some bonus) and gave for this occasion two unforgettable gigs at La Maroquinerie and at l’Olympia, To top it off, they announced a french tour in November A little quizz with our friend Shannon Leto 1, You are on the road for more than 20 months, How are you holding up ? Shannon : Yes! I feel good! I won’t complain ! I’m lucky to travel,espress myself on stage every night in front of thousand people, 2, You are used to play in some venues like the Zenith or Bercy, How have you approached the intimate show at the Maroquinerie ? Shannon : This kind of gigs let us to find again the interaction with the fans, we tend to lose it when we play on big stages. It’s a return to basics. In these venues, you see them sing, sweat, and above all you can capture their attention,which is really unusual, 3, What do you do a few minutes before going on stage? Shannon : I clear my mind and I don’t think of anything else at the concert and at my instrument. Obviously, I do some stretching but the most importantly for me is the mental preparation. I meditate and I start to play drums in my head. This is essential for me. 4, What do you like the most during the tour ? Shannon : All these extraordinary moments that we live with our fans, 5, What do you hate the most? Shannon : Interviews ! No I’m kidding [laugh], the worst on tour, is to be confronted to the bad food. In France, I have no problem there, but there are countries (I would not name it !) where they didn’t give me a very good meat, it looked like everything but not food. It is important not to neglect your diet, like sleep. This can affect your performance. And when you give concerts at a rythm as fast as ours, it doesn’t forgive,, 6, Is it sometimes difficult to keep good relations with the other members of the band? Shannon : When you live constantly with the same people, there are moments where the tension can settle in. It’s human.In time, you learn to keep your distances with each other in certains situations. We try to stay focused on our common goals: work, concerts, composition, production ,, 7, What’s the first thing you will do whe...Read the whole post...
