Popstar Feets
Dustin's Bar Mitzvah Talk Shoes
Occasionally I think it'd be wise to put more effort than just 'take pic, slate shoes'. So not only is there now a gig guide in the far column, but we've also got off our arses and interviewed someone. So here's Dustin Bar Mitzvah's thoughts on footwear. Its insightful. Popstar Feets: Last time Popstar Feets saw you boys, you hadnt eaten in days through poverty. Confess, youd spent all the money on shoes hadnt you? Dustins Bar Mitzvah: Yes. In Japan I bought 3 pairs of shoes. One of them is orange, though I never wear them, one is white and one black. Well spankers. PF: Are you still taping your shoes up with gaffa tape? DBM: No, not on purpose, though Rob's shoes were lost for a bit in Pete's house cos its too messy. PF: If theres no gaffa to hand can you recommend anything else to hold your shoes together in times of need?. DBM: Poo. PF:Have you ever matched your shoes to coordinate with your t-shirt? Or even worse your belt? DBM: No. We've got 1 or 2 t-shirts each and a belt each, except Rob who has string PF: As your earn millions from your pop career will you start doing an Elton and spend thousands on sequinned brogues? DBM: No, just bumming David Furnish. PF: Converses unique, gutsy and stylish or dull, commonplace and not waterproof enough? DBM: They're like The Kooks. PF: How many pairs of Converses have you got between you? DBM: None at the moment. PF: Do you share shoes or has someone (Im guessing Dave) got a verucca problem? DBM: No. My shoes are the fucking best anyway. No one's got veruccas ,they don't let us in swimming pools. PF: When your shoes are falling apart what point should you just give up and throw them away? DBM: it depends what state your jeans are in, if your jeans are pretty new you got to keep them looking kind of in step with the rest of the fallapartingness. PF: Do your mothers despair of your footwear when you go home and offer to take you out to buy new ones? DBM: All dead. PF: What do you think about the gaffa tape averse folk, who insist on box fresh trainers every morning? A worthwhile expense or possibly mad? DBM: Cunts. PF: Have you ever stage dived/crowd surfed and got your shoes stolen? Apparently its called mosh lobbing. DBM: No, you've got to tie your laces up or the tinkers will get you. PF: People chuck their shoes at Mystery Jets does the same thing happen to you lot or is it just because Mystery Jets are a bit poo? DBM: No I think its cos the grey haired one looks like a cobbler, they chuck beer at us cos Rob looks like he works at Wetherspoons. Well there we go. That was worth the effort wasn't it? Hmmm...
