What makes them tick?

AWSUM Celebrity Interview Chris ‘Woody’ Wood Will Farquarson Dan Smith Kyle Simmons

Since they first burst onto the music scene in 2010, Bastille has become one of Britain’s most instantly recognisable chart-dominating bands. Their hits, like Pompeii and Of The Night, have become global festival anthems, blaring out from stages across the world from Cincinnati to Zurich, from Cape Town to London, From Joburg to Paris. AWSUM News caught up with them on their recent SA tour.

Q You have gone from a relatively unknown four-piece band to one of the UK’s and the world’s best-loved indie bands, playing sell-out shows across the globe, at breakneck speed. How did Bastille happen?

A It all started with Dan and his songs and his laptop in his bedroom. In about 2010 we started playing in pubs and things started to take off and build and build. Pompei happened, and we ended up being known around the world.

Q Who are the Bastille band members?

Q What do you do to relax? What other things do you do?

A Woodie: I play football very badly.

Will: Woody is kind of the dad of the group.

Kyle: Yes! Woody can change a car tyre. I think Dan might be able to, but I certainly can’t.

Dan: Well, I would try!

Chris: Kyle can drive a forklift truck.

Will: Although I can fly a plane.

Q You also make the popular Bastille mixtapes. Any more in the pipeline?

A The band consists of lead singer Dan Smith, drummer Chris Wood, guitarist Will Farquarson, and bass-guitarist Kyle Simmons.

Q What is the theme of Wild, Wild World?

A We are glad to let fans of our mixtape series, Other People’s Heartache, know that a fourth edition will be released soon. It’s a bunch of very weird covers, a bunch of new tunes, and some surprising collaborations. I can’t tell you what’s on it yet, but it will be out this year, with the new album to follow early next year.

A The loose theme of the album was that the world can seem quite messed up sometimes when you’re watching the news, but that everyone’s got to get up the next day and go to work – and that people, human relationships and friendships, stuff like that, are such nice positive things … there are no worthy intentions with the record or anything; we see each song as quite different. They are all little stories in and of themselves, but that was just a theme that seemed to just keep cropping up, in and amongst of the rest. I don’t know how escapable world events seem sometimes. It’s not meant to be really dramatic and it’s not a political record, it’s not meant to have any one kind of message – we’re just four idiots!

A We would love to simply keep producing music and if we can continue to play live as long as possible, that would be great. We are always thankful to be where we are now, but always looking to further expand and, of course, continue to write more records.

Q Who are your music icons?

A We’re all massive fans of the survival television show Naked And Afraid.

We stumbled upon it on the tour bus and became completely obsessed with it.

A That’s such a tough question. The Fugees, The Beatles. Bowie, Prince and Hendrix. Also Bon Iver, James Blake, Kanye, Frank Ocean, Sigur Ros, Christine and the Queens, Rationale. Yeasayer, Vampire Weekend … I could just go on listing artists for ages. It would also be good to have some comedy there as well. Regina Spektor is awesome. She’s an incredible songwriter, and her voice is amazing.

Q What would the band like to achieve over the next few years?

Q What are the band’s favourite TV show?

Q What message do you have for our readers about leading a successful life and achieving your dreams?

A Don’t give up. Do what you want to do. Keep on going. Practise and you’ll get better.

PAARL BOYS’ HIGH SCHOOL (t) 021 872 2875 (e) info@paarlboyshigh.org.za Uitstapdag So het die laaste skooldag aangebreek vir die Klas van 2017 – inderdaad ’n dag van baie laastes. Die vlae is ingedra, die volkslied is gesing en boodskappe is deur die hoofleiers en die skoolhoof gelewer, alles vir die laaste keer. Daarna het die matrieks die saal verlaat en die saaldeur is vir die laaste keer deur die hoofleiers toegemaak. Soos wat een deur op ’n skoolloopbaan simbolies egter toegaan, so wag daar baie nuwe deure in die toekoms om oopgemaak te word.

Tradisies soos wat jy net hier by Hoër Jongenskool Paarl kry, het gesorg vir ’n knop in die keel en ’n traan in die oog tydens hierdie laaste saalbyeenkoms vir die 2017-matrieks.

Hoër Jongenskool Paarl se beste seënwense vergesel elke matriekleerder. Baie sterkte en voorspoed met die eindeksamen.

Prefekte vir 2018 Baie geluk aan HJS se prefekte vir 2018: Gerard de la Bat (hoofseun), Brend Spreeth (onderhoofseun), Adrian Alberts, Shaun Fouché, Luke Harding, Brandon Hattingh, Renier Janse van Rensburg, Vaughn Krumbock, Darren Lewis, Anderson Lombard, Theo Louwrens, Cameron Malherbe, Neo Masipa, Evan Roos, Steve September, Bredell Smit, JD Stofberg, Werner Strauss, Cullen van der Merwe, Jandré Venter en Kieran Williams.

HJS-blaasorkes en -musiekleerders Die HJS-blaasorkes en -musiekleerders het toekennings by die Paarl Vallei-eisteddfod ontvang: • Sunin Kim (orkesleier van die HJS-blaasorkes): beste orkes in die ope klas • Josh Steenkamp: beste junior saksofoonspeler • Jandré Frey: mees belowende saksofoonspeler

FASHION

Wait for it…the countdown to summer has begun, so get yourself sorted with the latest bits ‘n pieces that will take you from chilly to chilled out.

Pepe Sofianos stacks up the must-have stuff that says it all.

SUMMER STUF F

There’s a sure way to get your yeah hair sorted – all you need is a nifty Tangle Teezer. It’s quite unique because it has two-tier teeth that do double duty. The longer teeth tease and detangle and the shorter teeth smooth and define. It’s also great for back-brushing to add volume and easily brushes out.

Tangle Teezer is small enough to fit into a girlie bag, jacket pocket or gym bag so you can touch up your mop anytime.

• For the girls there’s the Skinny Dip compact styling hairbrush in a kitschy-cute tropical palm and flamingo print from one of London’s top accessory designers. It also gives your tresses a serious shine, so babes, think of it as lipgloss for your hair.

• A special edition Tangle Teezer Compact Styler with the Star Wars iconic characters and one with its most fearsome warrior, the Stormtrooper is for the guys so you can have perfect hair on the move - even if it’s gone over to the dark side!

Wowee Kylie! Check out how she works those cowboy boots with itty-bitty shorts and a T.

IT TAKES TWO TO TANGLE

I’M LOVING… …these big blue mirrored sunnies. They spell summer perfectly and they’re unisex, so you can always borrow each other’s shades.

Sharp!

Oh yeah – it’s Ian Somerhalder from the Vampire Diaries like you’ve never seen him before looking real cute in that hat.

HATS FOR CHAPS

Hats for guys are IN for this summer.

And the best part is that they really do look stylish and they make a change from the never-ending cap squad. After all, they also protect your scalp and face from the sizzling effects of the sun, so more kudos to you for wearing one. The best hat for the season is a trendy straw Fedora – it’s sporty enough to wear to the beach and it’s right at home when Blue hat, R129, you want to be more H&M. Cream hat, city slicker.

R99.99, Mr Price.

Demi Lovato and Wilmer Valderrama goofing around with the mother of mirror shades.

They cost R290 each and are available at Clicks stores and also online at www. takealot.com.

MIRROR, MIR RO THE COOLE R ON MY FACE, WHO ST DUDE IN THE PLACE? IS OK no need to look any further.

Super shades for summer are mirrored, blue or green with silver frames and you can go aviator or round. Get both and swap them to match your mood.

Mirrored aviators and John Lennon rounds are hanging out in all your fave stores like The FIX, H&M, Mr Price, Truworths Man, Cotton On from R59.99 to R359.

SUMMER BOOT CAMP Who said booties are just for winter? Summer may be the season of sandals but you can still totally rock your beloved ankle boot and be right on top of the hottest trend of the year. Models and celebs are just totally in love with this look by adding a pair of chunky booties with the essential go-to denim shorts, taking skimpy skirts to new levels with Dora boots like Jessica Alba or simply adding sass to a sunny dress with cowboy boots. Whatever the combo, boots are a great way to freshen your summer. Take a look at our street style inspo on how to work them now.

You know what they say … less is mo re, but infinitely b more is etter!

BRACE YOURSELF, BRO…

How about investing in a bracelet to vamp up your look? Guys, there are some trends that just don’t fade and one of them is the surfer’s bracelet. Call it that or friendship bracelet or whatever, it’s all about piling them on. The latest lot are braided bands with anchors and seaside stuff or switch to rattling a bunch of chains. Put as many bracelets on your wrist as you want and mix and match them -- - don’t worry, they are never too much!

HEY GIRL, YOUR EARRINGS DON’T MATCH! Ha! Who cares?

The MISMATCHED EARRINGS trend is one hectic look but trust me, it’s an accessory milestone that will linger, simply because it’s OTT and very easy to pull off and gets you noticed.

It’s caught on with high-flyers like Ivanka Trump who wowed guests at a red carpet event. It also adds a bit of a runway edge to any look because it’s different and creative. So when you want to spice things up a bit, wear mismatched earrings. Works every time.

Best of all, it means you don’t have to cry a river when you lose one earring --- just pair it up with another lost ear-hugger and you’ve got your own designer earrings. Have fun!

An Eggscellent Dish!!!

The first time I ate frittata I must have been about seven years old. It was served to me by my friend Paula’s mother, who was this short little Italian mama who loved to prepared delicious little dishes for us to eat after school, I loved the name of this open-faced omelette and felt very grand telling my mother in my best Italian accent that we had ‘frittata for lunch’. I went to bed that night saying the word ‘frittata’ over and over until I thought that I sounded Italian.

The Italian word ‘frittata’ derives from ‘friggere’ and it roughly means ‘fried’. I used to love watching Paula’s mother beat the eggs and cook them with mushrooms which she had simmering in golden butter, some Parmesan cheese and spring onions with a little bit of garlic, and then cook it all together over a slow heat and finishing it off in the oven under the grill.

She said that one should always first cook ingredients like mushrooms or tomatoes and zucchini first, as they have a high water content and would make the frittata watery and unpleasant. I have never forgotten her advice.

A frittata is a wonderful dish to serve to a crowd at breakfast and you can be made in a large ovenproof dish.

What I like about a frittata is that you can clean the fridge out and put all the little bits and pieces into it and it always turns out beautifully. My friend Enzo makes the most delicious frittata using leftover spaghetti and lashings of Mascarpone cheese and Parmesan cheese – it tastes like heaven.

I love to make one with petite pois, Mascarpone cheese, Parmesan and mushrooms. There are so many delicious combinations, it’s up to you and your tastebuds. Try one for dinner or lunch or even breakfast – they are delicious hot or cold and make a great addition to a picnic.

World Egg Day Dozens of Flavours, One Incredible Egg Eggs are a universal food and an important part of cuisines around the globe. Every culture has its own recipes for egg dishes.

Omelettes We think of the omelette we eat today as an original French recipe, but it was first made out of eggs and honey by ancient Romans. Make this type of omelette by moving beaten eggs around in a pan until they cook into a lumpy circle. After adding a filling, flip one side of the egg circle over the filling.

Frittatas and tortillas Cook the filling in a pan and pour the beaten eggs over them.

Let the dish cook until the eggs are almost set. To finish the top, cover the pan and let steam set the eggs or put the pan in the oven or under the broiler. In both ancient Persia and modern Iran, an herb-flavoured omelette called coucou sabzi is made the same way.

World Egg Day is celebrated every year on the second Friday in October and was first celebrated in 1996.

Since then, people around the world have continued to celebrate eggs as an excellent, affordable source of high quality protein.

WIN CHOCOLATE!!!!

Eggs in Asia Chinese egg foo yung is very much like a frittata or a tortilla.

However, egg foo yung comes out shaped like a patty because it’s made in the bottom of a wok. In Japan, thin omelettes are made in a rectangular pan and rolled up tightly.

In several Asian countries, thin omelettes are sometimes cut into strips before being mixed with other foods.

Pancakes, crèpes, blinis, and more A famous dish showing how foods of different countires are similar is a light, thin, egg-rich pancake. To the French, this pancake is a crèpe. There are similar pancakes in other cuisines, including the Jewish blintz, Russian blini, Greek krepand, and Hungarian palascinta. The Chinese also use a light, thin egg pancake to wrap egg rolls and make won tons.

Thin, omelette-like pancakes from Korea and Indonesia are often used as wrappers for other foods, too.
