SteveAJones Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I can certainly attempt to have it (as well as the others) translated. It's very time consuming but I imagine proper preservation of his legacy demands the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie29 Posted December 14, 2010 Author Share Posted December 14, 2010 I wonder if he is talking about Bonzo or Jonesy at the beginning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireOpal Posted December 14, 2010 Share Posted December 14, 2010 The Dark Lord is speaking about Bonzo in the beginning. Why would one need to translate the interviewer's questions? Just do a half-assed job, to quote the Simpsons. Interviewer: [flurry of Japanese] Page: Yeah. Yeah, we were always at the forefront of technology ...

SteveAJones Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 Why would one need to translate the interviewer's questions? For historical accuracy. It can get interesting when a translator is used. One translator deliberately twisted something Jimmy said when he was in Tokyo to promote the Mothership release and everyone there had a laugh at Jimmy's expense. When he was told afterwad what happened he became very angry and threatened to cancel the remainder of his press commitments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
