All that time most of us were only hearing whispers close to the ground about a band with a crazed stage show, beautiful dancers and music that was two fingers good and two fingers outrageous. It used to be you could see the Tubes in only a few cities — those they weren't banned from. Now you can see them at the Hult Center's Silva Concert Hall Aug. 12 at 8 p.m. The seven-member group is currently on an East Coast swing supporting their hit album "Outside Inside." The album is a crack in the mold the Tubes are notorious for. Fee Waybill, the Tubes' outspoken lead vocalist, in the following interview talks about the charge that "Outside Inside" is commercial, the rigors of touring and the night of 10,000 drunken Marines. Emerald: When did you start this tour? Fee Waybill: This particular run we started on the 19th of April. On the "Out side Inside" tour. We started with a bunch of colleges on the East Coast — Ivy League colleges we played for warm-up. We did a bunch of warm-up shows to try out the show and see how it flowed — to see what worked and what didn’t. Test runs. Emerald: How did it flow? FW: Good thing we had the warm-ups, because we had a few problems, a bunch of things we wanted to change, transitions, set order We changed a whole lot. We changed the complete show practically. After the warm-up shows we went back in to rehearsals and we did some big shows. We did a couple of Journey shows out doors as support. Which was, like, not real ly our show. We went to Lancaster, Penn, and “/ think the whole quality of the Tubes has taken a giant step forward.” ft rehearsed about a week, and fixed everything we wanted to fix. We put in a bunch of new stuff. Changed the order and 1 really had a real good rehearsal with our choreographer, Kenny Ortega. And got a few good pointers from (producer David) Foster. We weren’t doing “Monkey Time’’ in the show. Foster said “you got to do it in the show'. At that point in time we thought it was going to be the second single. It's not. Emerald: Is Foster your mentor now? He’s helped turn The Tubes around. FW: He really has. With him producing it's really a different ballgame. I think the whole quality of the Tubes has taken a giant step forward — album quality, pro duction quality, the quality of our ar rangements. He came and saw one of the warm-up shows and made a few sugges tions. It's nothing like dictation or anything. He just said ‘Gosh, you should do “Monkey Time.” ’ We didn’t have anybody to sing it — we thought. But one of our new dancers, who’s an Oregon girl, Michele Grey, from Portland, said ‘I want to try it.’ She was a singer. We let her try it and it turned out she was a great singer. So we’ve been doing it in the show. Emerald: The Tubes have been together since 72 and how many tours have you been on? FW: We started touring in 75. This is our eighth world tour. We’ve already been to Europe. We went to Europe after the warm-up shows in April. We did a bunch of television. In Germany we did one of the biggest rock shows in the world. It’s called “Rock Pop.” It was via satellite to about 60 million people in Europe. Emerald: Has your reception in Europe been better than in America? FW: Actually we didn’t go to Europe until our third or fourth tour. It’s always been a much bigger response, up until this album. This album has really taken off in the USA. In some countries in Europe they “/ personally don't give a shit... we finally have a top ten single." 'i hink it’s too commercial. England for one. Emerald: The Tubes have been largely :riticized for the commercialism of this album. FW: What’re you going to do? You try or ten years to be a big success and then ^ou finally have a hit record and everyone >ays: Oh, you’ve copped-out, you’re too ;ommercial.’ You can’t win for losing. I per sonally don’t give a shit what they say. We finally have a top ten single and we are thrilled pink. Emerald: Some would think it was a compromise. But isn’t the point of band to V become commercially successful? FW: Exactly. This is a business. I don’t have a day job None of us do. This is our lives and how we support our families. You’ve got to sell records to remain in this business. I think as much as we have gone in the direction of commercial radio, they have come back in our direction. Commercial radio is really opening up with the English invasion. They’re playing all kinds of music. It's not nearly so strict as it was. You don’t have to have a drippy ballad to get in the top ten anymore — although that helps. Emerald: Only a couple of months ago an industry record rating service told radio stations to throw out their Led Zepplin albums. FW: Exactly. Everybody wants to hear new stuff and groove music. Everybody wants to dance and have fun. I think that we have headed in their direction and they have headed into ours and somehow have met in the middle to where we have releas ed material they will play on hit radio. Emerald: What pisses you off about touring? FW: It’s frustating sometimes, like in the South. It was pretty hard for us in the South because we’ve never been there before. The people didn’t know what to think of us. Although the single did very Continued on Page 8 ■ “You finally have a hit record and everyone says Oh, you've copped out."
