The following is a interview with Pilot's Clint Walkingshaw:
Q: Where did the name of the band come from?
A: We like to keep some mystery around that so there's three stories we tell. Originally we were called The Fusion, but we changed that when we realised we weren't fusing anything. We wanted a name that was one small word and catchy like our fellow Melbournians, Jet. While talking about this in a car we noticed that the car infront of us had a bumper sticker that read 'JETPILOT' and so we took this as a sign to call ourselves Pilot. That's what I'll tell you in this interview anyway, that's one of the stories that may or may not be true.
Q: What inspired the band to form?
A: I'd been writing some songs as a teenager and after I'd written Can't Sit Still, which we still play at every show, wanted to get a band together to play it at a local high schools Battle of the Bands type thing. Stephen and (original bassist) Tristan didn't actually know how to play their insstruments but were keen to be in the band so they learnt just the parts to that song and then learnt the instruments from there.
Q: If you had the chance to tour with any band in the world, which would it be?
A:Wow, we've toured with a number of great bands and played festivals with heaps of others. Now it's nice to be the elder statesmen and tour with some up and coming bands. PANIC! are a cool band we'd like to tour with, also archaic couture, but their in and out of the scene like a...umm...a something anyway.
Q: If you could partner up with any singer/sonwriter for one song, who would it be?
A:I partnered up with some great artists for my solo album a number of years back. I'd love to have been able to partner up with Jack Fate. If you mean living or dead artists, then my answer is Jack Fate.
Q: Are there any albums in the near future for Pilot?
A:Oh yeah. We've got songs together for an album that's gonna be called 'Remember The Future'. We'll release the first single a few weeks after we release our single for the cover extravaganza. Then we'll release the album a few weeks after that.
Q: How about tours?
A: We're on our reunion tour right now. We've got three more shows in Australia, including tonights, then we head to the UK and then the US. After we release the album we're gonna go on a huge worldwide tour, playing stadiums...should be a blast.
Q: Okay this is the last question, Describe your music in two words.
A: Wow, tough question man. Fucking tough question coz we've got our alt/pop-rock stuff and our prog stuff that we keep seperate. I guess I'll just get cocky and call it 'life affirming'. Cheers man, peace.
