This Interview with Rose Tattoo took place back stage after The Tatts show at the Glasgow Cathouse on 6/6/2001 during the bands25 to Life U.K. Tour. Thanks to John Shearer for this one Read on.!!!How does it feel to be playing back in the U.K. again?ANGRY - I am absolutely fascinated with so much that I’ve forgotten or didn’t notice the first time around so it’s a whole new experience for me.That’s Cool?ANGRY - Yeah, yeah it's great, I'm enjoying it immensely.When is the new studio album going to be released?ANGRY - You can’t actually put a time on 'em you know, situation’s in whole you might not expect them to. So we don’t actually know what all this is going to end up being. So if we don’t know what its gonna be until we actually get there something further down the track until we actually know what’s going on. Until then its just get up playing at Rock'N'Roll gigs...very simple...and that’s simply what we like to think about at this stage.Will the new album be released on SPV Records?ANGRY - Well if that ever happens, Atlantic Records might come back and make us a multi-million dollar bucks.Will you be coming back to the U.K. to promote your new studio album once it gets released?ANGRY - If that ever happens that will probably be the first thing we will do.Will this be the permanent line up for Rose Tattoo?ANGRY - Well yeah I think it's as good, it’s the best line up you can put together at this time. I mean the band are Rock'N'Roll band. So it’s a good combination chemically.I was at the Wacken open Air Festival in Germany last year. I thought you played a fantastic set and it was an excellent performance you did. Will the show be released as an Official Video or DVD release?ANGRY - I will turn you over now to the administrative guiding influence of the band.Who’s this?ANGRY - Peter will tell you all about videos. There’s a very interesting story to tell here

PETE - Maybe...maybe...they want to do a DVD of it...there's problems over money.

Not VHS/PAL format? PETE - VHS was to pricey. They’re pretty keen on doing a DVD, but because of the situation it’s quite difficult. SPV have been taken over by another company. So we’ll need to find out more details about it. So we need an independent company that’s going to do it and finalise all the bands from SPV, which we should hear from them soon, it gets quite complicated so I don’t know. I’ll know more in a couple weeks.Did you enjoy touring with Rainbow way back in 1981? Did they treat you OK?ANGRY - Definitely ate in some of the best curry houses in England.Did Rainbow treat you well?ANGRY - Yeah...Ritchie Blackmore knows where every great Curry House and Restauraunt is. He just took us to these amazing Chinese Restaurants Did Ritchie treat you well?ANGRY - Yeh Yeh.He’s a little strange.

PETE - Very amiable.

ANGRY - Very warm...very affectionate.

ANGRY - Actually we should do an album.

Yeah, you should. Would you consider doing Castle Donnington Festival or the Reading Festival if it had a rock day?ANGRY - Of course oh god yeh, we fully expect them to ask us next year.That’s Cool.ANGRY - Yeh Yeh it would be good.Would you ever reform Buffalo?PETE - I doubt it mate no no nothing. Not since the last time we got together.

STEVE - Pete loves John Baxter.

ANGRY - Jimmy’s great.

What was it like touring with Guns n Roses back in 1993? Were they kind to you?ANGRY - Very entertaining...yeah...we got to watch two really mainstream American rock bands and for a couple of days we got to watch up close and it was quite an experience. I would say they were very interesting.Why did Mick Cocks leave the band?PETE - He didn’t.

ANGRY - It’s not his turn.

What’s Geordie Leach doing now?PETE - He runs a strip club in Beirut...JOKE!What’s your Favourite Influences and Artists?ANGRY - Oh, the early guys first, I like Gene Vincent...Jerry Lee...Little Richard and all that. I like mainly the black guys.What’s the first word that comes to mind when you think of the late great Dallas Digger Royal?ANGRY - Ones that make me feel good...he’s a lovely man.Do you still miss him?ANGRY - Yeah, yeah... always will!!!
