OPEN ENDED INTERVIEW
PART 1
The
past couple of years have been an amazing journey for Alabaster Box.
The group has toured Australia aggressively with concerts in schools,
churches and halls. And they've received a lot of airplay with their
songs Love on the Radio and There's Hope.
Joining us is Matt and Naarah from Alabaster Box. Welcome to the show...
IV01 Hey guys... going? 0:01
Very well!
Naarah, the past few months have been a crazy time for you guys, what's been happening?
IV02 The past... going really well. 0:17
Matt, how did the DVD come about?
IV03 Well we... real well for us 0:23
Why did you call it Live At Ripley Road?
IV04 Ripley Road... really cool name. 0:15
So what has been the response to it?
IV05 Well, the most... what 'AB' is all about. 0:48
Any chance we'll see Live At Ripley Road on TV?
IV06 Yeah... on TV before. 0:13
Another one of the highlights this year for you was the Australian Gospel Music Festival. What's it like?
IV07 At AGMF... no excuses for that. 0:49
Well besides the cricket, do you get the chance to hang out with the 'big wigs' at AGMF?
IV08 We always love... a good day was had. 0:43
You're listening to [station] and we're talking with Naarah and Matt from Alabaster Box.
Let's listen to the guys (and lady) from AB with There's Hope.
PLAY THERE'S HOPE
PART 2
You're listening to [station] and we're talking with Naarah and Matt from Alabaster Box.
I notice, Naarah, that you're sporting a God's Little Rocker top. You often wear them at gigs. What is God's Little Rocker?
IV09 God's Little Rocker... still do the same. 0:44
The website talks about a number of pretty hot topics from self esteem
and miniskirts, to purity and suicide. I would imagine that you get a
lot of email from girls talking about these topics, what's the most
common?
IV10 People don't... out there for them. 0:26
So what do you say to someone who's cutting themselves?
IV11 Well I guess... and he's there. 0:33
What's the URL?
IV12 Well God's... check out the website 0:21
There's another aspect of God's Little Rocker which we mentioned and that's the clothing.
IV13 Yes... rock this world for Jesus, I think. 0:12
I wish you well with that. OK, what's ahead for you for the rest of the year?
IV14 Well at the moment... rest of the year too 0:14
What about you Matt?
IV15 Yeah, we're finishing off... afterwards would ya? 0:21
For sure! Before you go we better talk about your new single from
the Love On the Radio CD and that's the song Fine. Every time you
perform it gets a tremendous response from the crowd. How did you come
to write it?
IV16 I guess... good time with it. 0:38
Is Fine "life changing" stuff, or do you see it as "good clean fun"?
IV17 I'd hope... to rock. 0:13
It's been great having you on the show. Naarah and Matt, thanks for coming in.
IV18 Thanks for... no problems 0:01
Alabaster Box and their new song Fine on [station]. PLAY FINE
