1) Well, it has been 3 years since your last
full-new studio album "3". How has
Firehouse evolutioned from that time.
Actually, we did another studio album called "Good
Acoustics". It is a re-recording of many of our
greatest hits it an acoustic format. We also put 4 new
songs on the cd. Our new cd, "Category 5", is a
full blown production cd with songs that are our best
ever.
2) You are one
of the 80's band that have better survived the whole
alternative music and "anti-melody" trends.
What's the secret of your success?
We just do the best we can do, and try to stay true to
our rock and roll roots. There's really no secret, just
write the best songs we can, and make the best recording
we can.
3) How does sound
on the whole "Category 5". What do you think of
the final results of the recording?
This is the best sonic quality we've ever gotten on a
FireHouse recording. The record is very diverse, so I
think there's something on there for everybody
4) Why you have
titled the record "Category 5"?
A Caterory 5 hurricane is the strongest storm. We feel
that this is our stronget album ever.
5) How was the
whole creative process?
We just wrote as much as we could individually, and then
got together later to write as a group. At the end of the
writing period, we just voted on the best songs.
6) At present
you sell it through you website...Are there plans for
bigger
distribution deals?
Yes, we're working on that now, but in the meantime,
anyone can order our cd from our website: www.firehousemusic.com
7) How does the
live of a musician change from being a trendy band with
the debut and the second albums and now having to start
from point zero all over again?
Well, we're not exactly at point zero. We just played in
front of 10,000 people last night, and we have a great
new cd. I think that we always wanted to just play music
for a living whether we were huge stars or not. The rest
is just icing on the cake.
8) Do you follow the current AOR/MELODIC ROCK scene?
Not really, I've been to busy trying to keep up with
FireHouse. I'm constantly in my studio recording new
music, but when I get a break, I listen to the radio,
MTV, and VH-1
9)
You have been touring intensly this summer. How have been
the overall reaction in the giggs?
The reaction has been great. We have so many people
coming up to us and saying how much they love the new
songs. That's really gratifying.
