What questions would be good to ask when interviewing a band???

Question

I have to do an interview for my my radio production class and i have chosen to interview a band. What questions would be good to ask??? I want to ask about how they got started and what their influences are etc. Theyre play mostly on a local level and have become very popular but are also getting known around the rest of the country now. Following the past/present/future rule what would be good ideas for questions???

Answer 1

Who influenced them growing up, who have they met through their success, what would they buy with their first big chunk of cash??

Answer 2

I once asked Paul McCartney, "What's a Monkberry Moon Delight." Linda was there. He looked at her, she looked at him, they grinned; Paul looked back at me and said, "Next question."

The point is, learn something about the band and their music. Check the web sites and run them on search engines. If you do your homework, the questions will come to you. Good luck!
