Here is a new print interview with Mark in an e-mag udiscovermusic.com that was done with the premise of Mark talking about 20 milestones in his life. I think most are ones he has mentioned before, but not all. There are two quotes that fit right into our historical perspective, so I am going to add them.

Enjoy :waytogo:

Thanks Linda.

I'm not sure how much is new though, I know Mark does repeat himself in interviews but some of those answers are exactly what I've heard him say before!!

Very true, but I'm not sure they have all been written down before! Memories are kind of faulty at times, so it is nice to have it written somewhere.

Let's face it, Mark's publicists have a tough job. They have to arrange these things for promotional purposes, but deep down I suspect they'd agree that he's one of the more redundant and boring interview subjects in popular music. :uhoh:
Cheers,

Sadly, I think your right, after all these years he is still not comfortable being interviewed and I doubt he ever will. He is most comfortable when playing guitar. :rockon:
