Former VAN HALEN Bassist Michael Anthony On Doing Solo Album - \"I Was Starting To Go That Way Before CHICKENFOOT\"
RockConfidential.com: It’s nice to see that Chickenfoot has taken on a life of it’s own and people realize it is definitely a “real” band and not just another supergroup. How did you guys see it when you first got together?
Anthony: "We didn’t even see doing a record. When we first got together about three years ago we had so much fun that we decided to go into the studio and do some writing and see what would come of this. It definitely wasn’t a supergroup thing where we picked out musicians to work with. I’ve known Chad Smith for years and I’ve jammed with Joe before. It was really just four friends with a little time to see what happens. We just wanted to get together and jam. We started writing stuff and it sounded great. Next thing you know we decided we needed to record what we were doing and then we got Andy Johns involved. Then we decided we should do a record. When you hear about “supergroups” you know they’ll record a CD and hit the big arenas and make a lot of cash and then shake hands and say goodbye. It wasn’t like that all. We want to have fun. We’ve all done our stuff in the past and we have absolutely nothing to prove. We’re just diggin’ the music we’re making."
RockConfidential.com: You said you’ll hit the studio in September. What have you been working on so far?
Anthony: "We’ve been bouncing some ideas back and forth. In April we were able to all get into the studio together. We went in to Sammy’s studio in San Francisco for about a week. During that week we had four things demoed up. There was one song Joe and Sammy had been working on but the other stuff … There were just so many ideas coming out. It’s definitely Chickenfoot. We’re not looking to change direction. Hopefully we’ll spend a lot more time in the studio as a band than we did on the last album. The schedules only gave us a few days here and there. I hope we have more time to work on stuff in the studio."
RockConfidential.com: What about doing a solo album? Your songs, your music, your vision. Think we’ll ever see anything like that?
Anthony: "Possibly, yes. I was starting to go that way before Chickenfoot. For a number of years I’ve been going out and playing with Sammy doing some of the Van Hagar era stuff. I don’t want to do that forever. Fortunately, Chickenfoot came up so that’s on hold. But thank God for that, because creatively we’re all doing what we want to do in Chickenfoot. I wouldn’t say I won’t do something like that in the future."
