no word of a lie ... i’m interviewing her today for the “art of asking everything“ podcast series. yes‘m, THAT shirley manson, the singer lady from garbage one. 

we are going to stay away from songwriting (she’s currently got her own songwriting-centric podcast) and i have a few billion questions of my own...but i thought it would be good to throw this one out at you guys in case there are any hardcore garbage/shirley folk among us. 

hit me in the comments before 2 pm UK time please. keep questions short. 

go wide, go long 

this podcast series is gearing up to be absolutely fucking epic 


ninja gig blog coming asap

Big Garbage fan! Shirley has been one of the most supportive, inspiring, and generous celebs on social media for artists, she has reposted a few of my drawings of her as well as many of my friends and I would love to hear what she thinks of all this artwork being made of her and how she feels being illustrated! 🖤

Very cool.

Shirley is a huge Fan of Siouxsie, I would like to know if they have met. What does she think about the legacy of women in punk. I find it extremely frustrating when these women are overlooked in documentries and retrospects. People like-Poly Styrene, Ari Up, Viv Albertine, Palmolive, Patti Smith, Nina Hagen, Debbi Harry, Lene Lovich, Joan Jett, Poison Ivy, Lydia Lunch and many more

Shirley, I'm from Madison! I'd love to hear you and Amanda reflect on launching projects as female artists of the 'counter-culture' in middle class WASP territory. How did you balance the identities of yourself and your music/art/work against the environment you were in? How did that environment contribute?

Shirley’s podcast is SO good! Especially the Perfume Genius and Karen O episodes. Would love to hear you ask her about any moments in her career where she wishes she had done something differently.

Why are Apple/Unix still trying to debate how to open a TCP socket with Microsoft? Don't we have bigger fuckin fish to fry?!?! - And Was #1 Crush meant to be mixed with Closer? I did it in the 90s... it is boring and old hat now, but the question remains...

I'd be interested to know if she was considering joining her first band Goodbye Mr McKenzie for one night at the Barrowlands (one of Scotlands most iconic venues which the band has sold out) for the culmination of their 30th anniversary reunion year. It is going to be epic anyway but would be even more so if she was to join them.

I have no idea, but oh my god, Shirley Manson! I am vicariously star struck! I hope you guys can reschedule, and that the whole podcast isn't just you apologising! :p Love you!

who were Shirley's role models growing up and who does she look to today for inspiration? I saw she was recently involved in a project (sorry not supposed to talk about music) with Madame Gandhi and Yoko Ono (among many other amazing female musicians) which seems like a perfect mix of female creativity and empowerment - are there more projects like this happening? Or a manifesto? Or a global take-over?

How does she deal with grief/loss?
