Neil Tennant interviewed by Fridae.
August 3rd, 2007Fridae.com features a typical pre-concert interview with the Pet Shop Boys vocalist, most notable for the following:
What’s next on the calendar for you, then?We’re headliners of the Summer Sonic Festival, which is in Tokyo and Osaka. We’ve been on tour [for a] year now - this tour finishes in October.
In 2004 we wrote a musical score for the silent film, Battleship Potemkin, and we did that for a concert in Trafalgar Square in London. We’ll be bringing that to Russia and the Ukraine.
The next thing we’re going to write is an electronic music ballet to be performed in London. And I’d also like to write some new pop songs.
An electronic music ballet. Huh. I do actually quite like the music for Battleship Potemkin, and most of the songs from Closer To Heaven, so I’m be curious to see what the end result of this project will be.
(And can someone please tell the people that run the official website that some sort of RSS feed or the like from their “news” page would be very appreciated? Thanks!)
