kp: Do either of you have any other side projects?
UV: Co-writing songs for the very impressive yet straight The 33's (we share a producer--see them at Arlene Grocery in NYC on May 15! www.the33s.info), paying rent und sleeping.

kp: What's next for PINK STËËL?
UV: Lunch. Und by "lunch," I mean some cock!
HJ: Also May 24th at the Parkside Lounge we are rocking with Corn Mo and Bohack. Be there or be lame.

kp: Do you have any questions for kittenpants?

UV: Ja! Ok, Kätzchen lederhosen: Who is your favorite Gay Metal Band OF ALL TIME?
kp: Pink Steel. After that, INXS.

HJ: What size is your kitty?
kp: I can't even begin to know how to answer that question.

UV: Who are your 5 favorite Germans (aside from us)?
kp: Jürgen Prochnow, Wim Wenders, Dr. Ruth Westheimer, Herbie the Love Bug, and Henry Heinz.

HJ: Are your Pants altered?
kp: I have noticed them acting kind of strange lately.

UV: Who would YOU call if your pants were made of licorice? Hm?
kp: I would call the store and take them back. ALWAYS keep the receipt.

HJ: How do you know David Cross (I MUST KNOW!)
kp: I met David Cross the same way everyone meets anyone famous: through Corn Mo.

UV: Und also, what makes YOU so great? (I mean, we of PINK STEEL know, but shouldn't everyone else?)
kp: So many things; my winning smile, my "classic, but elegant" fashion sense, my award-winning drug and alcohol dependency... No, really I am not SO great. I just have good times and fuck shit up!

UV: Good Times! Fuck Shit Up!
