Steve: You go on a stage, and sometimes it’s happened to me when I’ve gone on and introduced bands, and you just see someone gesticulating at you, and you can’t look away.
Thom: But that’s great, that’s…. I love that, it’s like when I get….personally when I get to do my wandering stuff, you know I’ve really got into just walking around just looking at people, and making no attempt to perform in any way at all, and just looking at them, and sometimes you get stuck on somebody, and you just look at them, and it takes them quite a while to figure out that, you know, you’re staring at them, and then to see what their reaction is, it’s just brilliant. Sometimes people just don’t give a shit, and they’re like “what?” (laughs)
Steve: You looking at me?! You looking at me?!
Thom: And sometimes they sort of look away and sometimes they’ll make rude signs at you, brilliant.
Steve: I mean, I suppose it’s odd, do they look over their shoulder “is he looking at me?”
Thom: It’s so much better than…..it’s so much better than like, you know, I’d love to be able to do it walking down the street, but you know, you can’t really stare at people when you walk down the street, although I do tend to. I mean, you sort of get away with it more when you’re on stage, they can’t really answer back, it’s brilliant.
Steve: Everything you can’t do on a tube train.
Reblogging again. I was reminded of his staring habit during this recent AFP tour, so I’m glad he acknowledges this and I’m not completely crazy.
