JIM NOIR

What’s The Best Night Out You’ve ever Had?
Probably a festival in cornwall at the time of the last eclipse. Me  and my brother were down there staying at me sisters for it. Ended up  being a bit of a washout with not half the amount of tourists Cornwall  expecting turning up, so we pretty much along with a few hundered  people had this whole festival to ourselves! Sounds a bit crap but it  was fun.

What’s Your Favourite Club?
I like the orange ones, although when I was at school I was big fan of  the sorta white/milk choccy mixture, but I dont know if they still do  them. Dont like mint ones, eugh, no ta.

What’s Your Favourite Record Of All-time?
Portishead – Dummy, if you mean vinyl.

What Record Can’t You Stand?
My fifth album. Too much Gregorian choir.

What Record Did You Lose Your Virginity Too?
Popcorn.

What Was The Last Record You Bought?
I got 2, Broadcast ‘EP1’ and Sirconical – ‘make the music with your  mouse’. Cos he won’t give me one the tight bastard.

Name Three Of Your Biggest Influences.
Me mamma me dadda me bruva and me sistoh. Oh dats four?

Who Would Play You In ‘Jim Noir’ The Movie’?
Just a load of film makers I think. Would be good to turn it round and  get all the musicians to work the cameras and direct it an all that,  and then have all these cameramen and directors floundering around  trying to act. See how you like that you baaastarrdddss. I’d watch it  anyway.

What’s Your Dream?
I’d like to bring Peas to the world and make it a happier place for all  of our future childrens. Naa, I often dream of a weird little hooded  urchin thats got these 2 red eyes, scares me to fuck sometimes. True dat.

How Do You Escape?
I usually just wake up half way down the stairs. Running away is  usually the answer. If you mean holidays, I go to Scarborough.

What Is Your Favourite Possession?
My shiny new Sony PSP. Now i can play championship manager ANYWHERE,  and bore the shit out of ALL my friends WHEREVER I am. Its cool. It  also does the internet if I stand at the bottom of the stairs, which  is useful cos I always think of using email when im hovering there.

What Is Your Life Philosophy?
Everyone in life should be allowed to climb inside wardrobes and  pretend to be a jacket if they want. If not, then we live in a sad,  sad world.

What’s In Your Pockets?
The keys that open all the doors in my life, without which, I’d be very  cold. And 2 fruit gums. Nope, … yum, there are just keys.

If You Were An Animal, What Animal and Why?
I’d be a dinosaur. Just so I could go ROOOOOAAARRRRR, Stop tellin me  what to do world! ROOOOAAARRRR. Then I’d probably just lie about in the  sun and shit.

You Are Having A Party, Whom Dead Or Alive Is On The Guest List?
I’d invite only people in the world who have ever said the word,  Furgenbooberbaum. Might be a bit of a damp sqib, but if there are  people who’ve ever said it we could discuss it for a few hours I suppose.

When Was The Last Time You Embarrassed Yourself?
Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow
