An new interview on Antiquiet is now available. It’s a long one and probably the best one with Billy Howerdel so far. He talks about a range of topics related to A Perfect Circle and their upcoming tour:
What are the chances that we’ll hear a new song?
If you asked me last week, I would have said 70%… If you ask me this week, I’m going to say 60%.
I don’t know. I’ve given stuff to Maynard, he’s writing to it. When he gives me something back, I’ll write to it more. And here we are, we’re getting close to a month away from the first show.
So I mean, if it’s going to be irresponsibly terrible, then we won’t. But if it’s somewhat doable, then we’ll premiere it… I doubt it’s going to be recorded or released, but maybe it is, I don’t know.
We have every intention of playing a [new] song or two on this tour, but the reason for doing this tour is to revisit these old records, kind of exercise them, and remind everybody, like ‘remember us?’ And we don’t even know what to expect from the fan reaction. Will people even remember on a large scale, who we were? But the appetite seems… awesome.
Definitely check it out! Thanks to Tooldude for the tip!
