Jono: Tegan and Sara you guys, sounds great, thank you for comin'. Sara: Thanks for having us! J: What was Neil Young? What was that experience like? Did you get to meet him? S: Um... yeah, he's our boss actually. J: Really? S: We're actually signed to his label so we hang out with him, yeah, all the time. J: Really? Tegan: It's in our contract. He has to call us best friend in front of everyone or else we're off the label. S: And hug us, all the time. J: Cause you know you hear a lot of stories of people going out on the road with these big name acts and they don't ever get to meet them or they meet their security. S: He invited us, so he had to be nice to us or we would quit. J: Well how did he ever hear you? S: Through just industry connections... It wasn't him who was interested actually it was his manager that was interested in us. That's about it. J: Wow. S: Actually, he's Tegan's dad. J: Oh really? S: We don't usually tell people that. J: That's amazing 'cause you're twins, and he's not yours? S: Oh, that's just a marketing ploy. We got the same kind of hair cut. J: That's extra special. S: Very special. J: Well we're going to get you perform one more... etc. |
