  • Interview with Mr Rob Sykes

    So Mr Sykes we've finally found the time to ask you a few questions:

    Q1: What intstruments can you play and how long have you been able to play them?
    A1: Well I've been playing the guitar for nearly eight years, bass for four of those, i also play a bit of piano which ive been playing for a few years when im bored. I play the Tuba as well (7 years) plus a bit of drums adn anything else i can work out how to play.
    Q2: Where are you originally from?
    A2: I was born in Cambridge but when i was 9 months old i moved to Northampton until i was 11 which was when i moved up here to Scotland to live in South Ayrshire.
    Q3: Do you have any musical idols?
    A3: Ive always thought of Eric Clapton as one of the most influential musicians, although as i was a classical guitarist for a while people such as Tommy Emmanuel and Euan Martin are also up there in my top ten.
    Q4: Who has taught you over the years?
    A4: When i started learning i was taught by a Mrs Dot Bailey at my primary in england, then a Mr Barry Smith took over there, when i went to music school on saturdays i was taught by Jeff Tooley, and ive alson been taught by people such as Peter Nuttall and John Draper over my years. Nowadays however i am being taught by "God" or Paul Henderson (Stephens uncle) as he is more commonly known, and Dobie Gilmour in Ayr.
    Q5: What kind of music do you listen to?
    A5: Anything that isnt NED beats (or crap)
    Q6: Where do you see the band going?
    A6: To Fame and Stardom obviously but until making some money from a few gigs will do us fine
    Q7: Whats next for you?
    A7: Prelims :( My new Gibson coming soon :D and hopefully anymore recording stuff marc can lay his hands on :)

    Hello. My name is Gareth and I used to get taught by 'God' (Paul) too. I'd love to get in touch with him again, but don't know how to. Could you tell him Gareth Paterson said hello from up in Perth? Also - tell him he should get a bebo page so I can find him!
    Cheers,
