CT did a Reddit AMA yesterday, and here are some stuff you might have missed:
Few of his favourite movies, “listed from beginning of life’:
“Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Help, D2, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, The Big Lebowski, Once Upon A Time In The West, Marley and Me. So the current, and still champion, is definitely Marley and Me.”
What to expect in his shows:
“I would say you will find a high energy show playing 8/10 songs on the album by a band of extremely overqualified women (plus me) and the occasional anecdote (which seem to “land” with the audience approximately 33% of the time). I will be wearing blue or black jeans and either a blue, orange, red or grey textured crew neck sweatshirt.”
The secret to folding sheets:
“I actually think I am terrible at folding in general and fitted sheets in particular. I put in the description that I was good at it as a allegedly humorous aside because I was so bad at it.”
His favourite song that he has written:
“I think my fav (and also the hardest!) to write was Youngish Americans. I had ended up being the middle verse just sitting there for a while until 6 months later the 1st and 3rd verses appeared and the song completed itself. The way the pieces fit together unexpectedly made it v satisfying.”
If we are going to see more of trombone CT in the future:
“Hopefully! The last time I played trombone was with Mumford and Sons at Glastonbury who, bless their lovely hearts, thought, “hey, CT said he played trombone in middle school. let’s hand him a trombone and let him rip. I’m sure his embouchure has held up super well for the last 15 years. And I don’t think having a comically bushy beard will affect playing a brass instrument at all.” (btw Mumford + Sons group discussions take place in the first person). In all seriousness tho, I would like to thank Mumford + Sons for that opportunity. That was, no joke, one of the highlights of my touring life. And I would also like to thank the sound man who heard my first note and immediately muted my mic. You are an unsung hero.”
(Mod’s note: CT was talking about the time they performed With A Little Help From My Friends with Mumford and Sons, The Vaccines, First Aid Kid and The Staves at Glastonbury in 2013).
