He indicated that he performed several songs that he'd never done live before, but I didn't think to ask for clarification as to which ones.</p>WHarrisBullzEyeTue, 19 Aug 2008 18:08:05 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1654208<p>Great interview. Thanks so much. Martin does seem like a really nice guy and very appreciative of his fans. There is some talk of him doing the orchestral version of 'Lexicon' like he did in Canada early this year. That would be amazing. </p>DJTue, 19 Aug 2008 16:17:30 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1606484<p>Awesome interview Will. I can't believe I'm not actually attending that regeneration tour! </p>steedMon, 18 Aug 2008 18:52:32 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1604406<p>Masterful job, Will. I think he really appreciated the fact that you did your research and asked questions about songs that aren't part of the "hits" collection. </p>TedMon, 18 Aug 2008 16:28:10 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1604299<p>This is a great interview, Will. Now you'll have to join Martin and Tony Hadley on their next trek, in Belize, where the three of you can reminisce about New Romantic girls. (Does Belize still exist?)</p>JonCummingsMon, 18 Aug 2008 16:19:51 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1601003<p>...and in PopDose-ville, they say Will Harris's small ego grew three sizes that day!</p>WHarrisBullzEyeMon, 18 Aug 2008 13:15:20 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1600318<p>I have to say that when I heard you were doing this interview I thought, "the dude from ABC, who gives a shit?" But Will, this was one of the best interviews I've read in awhile. Not only were the questions excellent, but Fry seemed like a really lovely chap. Now I'm going to have "That Was Then..." stuck in my head all day.</p><p>Bravo, my friend.</p>MalchusMon, 18 Aug 2008 12:27:46 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1599141<p>Fantastic. I wish he'd done "That Was Then..." when I saw him in L.A.!</p>JohnHughesMon, 18 Aug 2008 11:15:36 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1599026<p>Good piece, Will. I'd love to see the band launch into "Bite the Hand" live. That'd be awesome. </p>DavidMedskerMon, 18 Aug 2008 11:01:06 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1590722<p>I remember that show quite fondly. But maybe it was one of those deals where they weren't in the same place at the same time, with Smokey recording the intro earlier. Or, then again, maybe Martin's memory is just failing him. It could go either way, methinks...</p>WHarrisBullzEyeMon, 18 Aug 2008 08:39:46 -0000http://popdose.com/popdose-interview-martin-fry-of-abc/#comment-1590615<p>I could've sworn I saw Smokey introduce the tribute to him on a teevee show. Maybe the short-lived CBS version of 'Top of the Pops'?</p>scrumbleMon, 18 Aug 2008 08:24:55 -0000
