I know what you refering to on the laptop. Watch in high definaition and you can read it (2:23). It just a message from the producers who have noticed the interview going **** up and saying that have something else on stand by. NOthing to suggest its fake, unless im refering to the wrong laptop message.
 
honestly only having watched a few mins so far he's done nothing wrong.

Firstly you do these interviews, you come in sit down, interview and go off and do another one, they are sat there while this guys blows smoke for over a minute before he asks a single question. The interviewer is simply boring and stupid and during his slow intro you see BBT think wtf is this guy doing.

They he starts asking stupid questions, after mentioning the 3 albums multiple times, he asks billy bob if they've released 3 albums, he's on tour with Willie Nelson so asks if he learnt anything, he says he doesn't know him at all and the interviewer can't seem to understand it. He asks if it was Nelsons choice to have him along, he wasn't there when the decision was made and said he didn't know and the interviewer, well, basically wants some huge long great story about Nelson and doesn't move on but essentially makes it all ackward.

Mostly its a interviewer who has no clue, isn't asking the right questions, is being a total pratt and they simply had no intention of making the interview interesting or helping him out, most likely because he seems like a complete tit.

he's a drugged out ****, but who doesn't know that, but its pretty common for someone whose been a musician for twenty odd years who has a following in music, doing an interview with his band whose been around for 2 years, to not want to field questions or talk about how he's only getting attention because he's an actor.

THe interview was, seemingly, trying to indicate even in his intro that this is an actor with no previous musical intentions/ability trying to make a name for himself and I guess i'd be pee'd off if I was him.

WAs rather weird, but a terrible interviewer who simply didn't ask a single question that could entice a decent music story out of BBT.
 
He seemed to want to avoid every question with "I don't know, uh...maybe?"

He asked what kind of music he like as a kid and he comes back with "I liked baseball", "uhmm, ahhh - I subscribe to a magazine".
Do you remember what you listened too musically as a kid?
"They had a contest to build something"
Where does the music fit into this?
"I don't know it was a monster magazine"


Either he's spaced out on some drugs, is playing the interviewer or didn't care at all.
At least the rest of the guys acted normal.

Interviewe even tried to get it back on course talking about how the band started/how new they where and when asking, you guessed it. "I don't know".

You can even see on the other guys faces they are not impressed at all.

He did start answering questions, bluntly..but he did.
But he seemed to want to take everything, turn it into a bad thing and argue it.

Respect for the interviewer, I would have just said you know what Bob - you're acting like an ungrateful d**k, get over yourself. And if the others were willing I would have carried on the interview with the rest of the band.


LOL!

I don't see that there's anything that doesn't show a classic edit from cinema. The camera cuts were too perfect for it to be live, a nice mixture of clips from different scenes. So what are we thinking here?


edit: I can't imagine a DJ that would allow this dry of programming and get away with it. C'mon, you think this is real? The whole interview is totally stereotypical, and they never show anyone we know (Thornton, for example) in the same scene or in reflection....

edit 2: continue on, and look at this: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=billy+bob+qtv&aq=f&oq=&aqi=

All dumb. Anything creditable there?

"..band is the first love!!!"


"Do different audiences react to you in different ways?"

No, dumb ***~! They all treat us like rappers. WTF do you think?



"No, my first love is a chick name Lisa Cohen. Do you want to talk about her?"

I don't see where Billy Bob is the idiot here, OP.



edit2: here's the real interview. The Canadian interviewer is definitely the idiot here:

Funny how some people think Billy Bob is great for doing this. I think he comes across as a sulky old fart. The interviewer is articulate enough to turn everything back on Billy.

Interviewer: "Ok, you're not going to play"
BB: "Errr I'm a drummer"
Interviewer: "And you don't have your drums here?"
BB: "Naahh we don't cart those around at 6 o'clock in the morning"

He's clearly so proud of his music that he can't be arsed to organise a set of drums.
 
Funny how people don't take into account the fact that it is 6am or the fact that the Interviewer is Clearly having a dig at BB.
He was told the facts & then continues to ask the same questions, He deserved Everything he got.
