Who knows when one of us is going to be interviewed by a drum magazine. Some of us are lucky to be featured in them, but to actually be on the cover, or have an major article written about you is the ultimate goal I would say of all of us.
Back when Rush came out with their 'Roll the Bones' album I interviewed myself. For some reason I was really interested in what I was doing at the time and I had to get it down on paper. Back then I was recording at home and I would record with my brother. We would do covers and originals with just a drumset and vocals. Later we would add guitar. My brother can not play either but we had fun.
Then a few years after that I wrote another interview of myself. Then I took a college creative writing course and submitted the most recent interview as a assignment. I received a good grade (I wish I kept it) and the professor was impressed. When I write them they look pretty much like in magazines. This is how they usually look:
SDM (Some Drum Magazine): So when did you start playing drums?
Enforcerdrummer: I've always played drums. It all started when I was younger and I would hit books and use different size books for toms.
SDM: What kind of drums do you use?
For me interviewing yourself is fun and now with the power of the internet, myspace, facebook, and blogs, we all can post an interview of ourselves which many will find interesting and reveal things you didn't think about until you ask yourself. I suggest you all try it. Don't bottle the creativity, let it out!
