| | |  New interview with Harry & the Potters
The Daily Bruin has a new interview with Harry and the Potters, a band that produces songs about the events in the novels. It can be read in full here. Quote:
"Forget Ron and Hermione as the backing band – have two Harrys fronting the band simultaneously," Paul explained. "I thought that was the most bizarre and ridiculous idea. And if you're going to do a band about Harry Potter it better be bizarre and ridiculous because otherwise it's just cheesy and bad."
Quote:
"We had so much fun writing the 'Voldemort Can't Stop the Rock' album. Harry's 15, he's so angsty. It's like the perfect thing to write songs from that perspective," said Paul. "(Harry) has a few qualities that lend themselves to punk rock. He's not afraid to break the rules."
Quote:
Despite the generally positive feedback, they have not tried to send JK Rowling a CD, nor do they plan to.
"I kind of don't want to know what she thinks of the band. If she doesn't like it I wouldn't want to feel guilty about doing the band because it is really fun," said Paul.

hmm... I don't like them
I downloaded a song or two and they blow
they sound like er... little kid songs to me.
I'm more of a Classic rock (60's to mid 80's) type of person.

Titles include "Stick It to Dolores" (the chorus repeats "Oh my God, you look like a frog")
 So great!!!
Hehe, I find it a wee bit ironic, who they always say "Keep silent in the library", and the band is allowed to play in a library. I don't know how things work in foreign libraries, so if this is a normal thing, then forgive me.

I've said it, and I'll say it again: That's the funyest band with the funyest songs.

I think that is an interesting topic to have your songs and band based off. If I was J.K. Rowling I don't know if I'd be offended or not. I guess I'd have to read the lyrics, lol.

From everything I've ever read about them they pretty good musicans and they read some cool lyric from the books. I am sure someone has checked them out on Jo's behalf. It would be cool to know what she thinks of them.
