Some of the article...

Tell me about some of your influences, especially as the piano player.

TRO: Piano was the instrument I started out on as a child, but one of the things that made our band quite unique is that most of my influences were guitarists or electronic music like Depeche Mode or Kraftwerk, or a lot of that 1980s stuff … people like The Pet Shop Boys, and U2 and REM and Radiohead and Bowie – classic bands – people who are known for being more generally about guitars. I guess I took that sense of that kind of expansive, melodic guitar parts and used it. Rather than being about twiddly solos, it’s much more about creating sonic landscapes for the vocals and lyrics to fit into – a kind of impressionistic approach to sound. I think taking that inspiration and applying it to a piano is probably what made Keane’s sound unique. It’s a pretty bastardized approach to playing piano that would probably be disapproved of by anyone who’s been classically trained. I think it made for quite interesting results.

ROUNDHOUSE LIVE BLOG

Band goes to soundcheck...

16:10: Those soundcheck pics we promised. They were playing Clear Skies at the time (and it sounded lovely). As ever, the live shots are in black and white because
a) it's arty
b) it makes dodgy pictures look slightly better

16:45: OK, so this is how things are looking out on the stage. The band are working on a few things which I'm not allowed to tell you about (but the clue is in the "acoustic" instruments). It's really interesting to see them working through how they play things, trying things out, making it all sound marvellous.

17:23: The setlist meeting...

21:03: Twelve minutes until stage time and the whole band were in this tiny room warming up. Always a highlight of any live blog to hear them playing in a room together, with big grins on their faces.

21:22: Going on...

21:41: Here's some pics from Your Love - with Tim on lead vocals (sounded great).

TIM INTERVIEW IN TODAY'S INDEPENDENT

From KM.com,

There's a great interview with Tim in today's edition of the Independent newspaper, here in the UK. Click here if you'd like to read it online.

My fav part:

In Night Train's "Stop for a Minute," Rice-Oxley writes: "Sometimes I feel like a little lost child/ Sometimes I feel like the chosen one". Both lines are from the heart. "I'm reading Kenneth Williams's diaries at the moment," he starts to explain. "I'm really interested in someone like that, with all the mess and depression. I really associate with people who are honest about their fear of failure. If I feel that I've written a really great song, that's pretty much what I live for. My identity's dependent on it. But there are days I'll spiral into thinking: 'I can't write any more. I literally can't finish even a crap song.' I live in fear of the day when everyone turns round and says: 'Actually, you're right!' That really haunts me. That whatever I had is gone. I spend the whole time dreading that feeling that I'm not good enough. And it's that same fear that leads to thinking: 'If in doubt, stick to the well-trodden path and let's do another [standard-issue Keane hit] "Is It Any Wonder".' But then Tom gives me a kick up the arse..."
