At The Pub With...Marco V
This month Tim Stark is swapping trivia, tips and all manner of info what-not with the ever-charming, never-hirsute Marco V at Trance.nu’s ‘Imagi-bar’!
Welcome to Bar Trance.nu, Mr V! What am I pouring for you?
Just a red bull with a side order of water for me please!
Let's start with the best bit of non-musical gadgetry that you own?
The new Canon HF10 full HD camcorder, it’s so small and the quality is fantastic!

Who was your favourite Charlie’s Angel?
Farah Fawcett from the original series and from the new movies - Lucy Liu.
What television show can’t you go a week without watching?
Radar. It’s a Dutch TV show about people who have troubles with different kinds of things, like a broken car or problems with a telecom company. Sounds boring, but I love it!
What’s the most disgusting thing you’ve ever eaten?
Everything with the spice coriander in it; I can’t stand the taste of it. For me it’s like drinking a bad kind of eau de cologne.
Who would you put in ‘THE CORNER OF WRONG!!!’?
President Bush; I don’t think I have to explain why!
The Mike Myers question: Who makes you laugh?
Theo Maassen, a Dutch cabaret guy. He was born in the south of Holland (just like me) and we speak a kind of Dutch dialect, he used that to make jokes.
Very very funny.

“Say Hello to my Little Friend!”… What’s the greatest film line ever?
As spoken by Robert De Niro: “are you talking to me? Hey you are talking to me?”
What’s your favourite non-music orientated website?
I am building my own house right now, so at the moment it’s a website about everything that is related to construction work. Bricks, wood, doors, paint etc. Check it at: www.bouwmaterialen.nl
What item of clothing can you not live without?
It’s a dark blue thin sweater from Prada that’s always in my record bag somewhere. It’s always my back-up shirt whenever I get could on the plane or a late set on a festival. Very useful.
What’s the worst fashion crime you’ve ever committed?
Loads of them! We have Carnival here in the south of Holland and everybody dresses up like something. I have gone as everything from a cowboy to a clown, an animal and even dressed like a nerd. Believe it or not - that was my best outfit for getting loads of attention from girls

Tell us which magazine do you have to read every month?
The Quest. It’s a kind of Science magazine about everything, like what’s the hottest spot on earth, the biggest city, safest plane, what makes people fat. Loads of useful and useless information, but nice to read.
Favourite pizza & favourite ice cream?
Pizza Hawaii and vanilla ice cream with everything on top: cream, chocolate, bananas, strawberries, cookies, you put it on there – I’ll eat it!
Punk, Nerd, Jock or What? Your teenage tribe was …….
I was a bit punk/rock and later I was completely into hip hop. I even played/performed in a hip hop band for a while called Bugas B Posse!
What brand of trainers do you buy?
There is a new brand of trainers which arrived here in Holland that I am buying for the last 2 years, called Munich (who are somehow related to Adidas). They fit perfectly and look great! http://www.munichsports.com/

Whose poster did you have on your wall as a kid?
From the band Fisher Z, I was totally crazy about this band. They played a mix of new wave/punk/rock I still think they are fantastic.
The Toast ala’ Baked Beans question: what’s your signature dish?
I am a terrible cook, the only thing I can make that I have the guts to feed to somebody is a fried egg or a hamburger. But then hey……. they are really fantastic ;-p
Wearing sunglasses indoors: is it ever acceptable?
I would say No as a rule, but I have been in a club where there was so many strobe lights going off I wish I’d had a pair. Other than that I’d say no!
What’s your dream car and what colour are you getting it in?
Something classic like a Ford Mustang from 1965 or a Corvette from 1963. Both convertible and in red please.
Are you the backpacking round Tibet or a sun, sea & sand-type holidaymaker?
I like to see things but the whole backpacking thing is not for me. I also don’t like to be on the beach for 2 weeks but it’s better than walking around with a backpack for 2 weeks. Camping though – love it! I did it last year with my family and we had a great time!
Video game maniac or do you prefer life in the real world?
I never play video games because I know I will loose my head in it and never get anything done. I’ve quite an addictive personality when I get into things, so never tried games for obvious reasons!
Plug your latest single/album/comp or gig here in 50 words or less!
Sander van Doorn and I hooked up recently and made a track together after speaking about it on a flight. It’s called ‘Organic’ and it’s coming out in 2 weeks from now on my label. There is also a second track and that will be out on Sander’s label over the summer.
