These are taken from interview done in Australia in April, 1998 on the "Stole my Baby" tour.

Other wise known as the "Paul and Kyle" or "Enmore" interview, this is what Paul and Kyle did back stage on April 21st, 1998 (SAME SHOW I WENT TO!!)

What Rob does before shows

Paul:

Rob is… (laughs) he’s…

Kyle:

It’s a total mystery, we don’t know ourselves, we just… they tell us to show up and Rob’s not here, we don’t know what’s goin’ on

Paul:

He does his whole pre-show meditation thing where he, ya know, sits there and lights candles and does his vocal warm ups (Kyle laughs) with a bottle of techquila

Read the interview

Paul and Kyle muck around

Kyle:

we’ve had so many drugs (?) it’s amazing we’re still on the ground (in a weird voice)

Paul:

The anticipation is crawling. From my feet… right now it’s about my knees

Read the interview

Paul and Kyle talk about Push....

Paul:

Yeah, we’re funny, it’s like no one in this band can be the one to say “damn it’s been a long day”

DJ:

Yeah

Paul:

No one can be that guy. You can’t says “quit pushing me!” You can’t use words any more

Kyle:

You know it’s funny, I’ve always been made aware of how brilliant the title is every time I’m walking around a mall or something, where, like every door has little “push” sign on it.

Paul:

Yeah!

Kyle:

You can’t help forget the damn song!

DJ:

So that’s what it’s about! I knew it was something meaningful

Kyle:

Yes… see, we’re thinking!

Paul:

You see, our next big song is going to be called pull.

This interview comes from "RECOVERY". A youth/musical centered television show filmed in Melbourne for the ABC. Matchbox 20 appeared in 1997, and again in April of 1998, this time performing Busted, and talking about a number of amusing things....

Paul and Rob talk about trashing hotel rooms

Jane:

You haven't trashed any hotel rooms have you?

Rob:

No that's mean, cause people have to clean it up.

Paul:

We're like the type of rock guys that leave tips.

Jane:

You're nice rock guys.

Rob:

Every now and then, I'm sure we've left our room in a state that people don't want to clean up but it wasn't like we said "We're going to trash our room" It just kinda happened that way. Right?

Paul:

yeah... Well I don't know if that counts. Well actually it does 'cause the best trashing stories were when we're just sitting there and they just sorta....

Jane:

C'mon tell us a good trashing story

Rob:

There was that time when Paul threw the house keeper out the window.

Paul:

Yeah, it wasn't like an actual TV or anything- I actually threw the house keeper so I dunno if that counts

Jane:

How do you throw a housekeeper?

Paul:

You see I'm a strong man and....

Rob:

He said "excuse me can we get some matches?" and she said "We're out of matches" and he said "You're a hussey!" and he threw him out the window.
