TT: What’s your favorite move?
SIMW: I don’t want to give away my secret move. But I’m going to say that I really do enjoy the Angus [Young of AC/DC] — the trot across the stage on one foot while playing … I think of him when I’m doing it all the time.
TT: Describe the thrill of playing air guitar.
SIMW: I guess it would have to be like riding a sailboat, where you grab on and the wind just takes you, like the songs, and you go with it. You and the song become one and you just ride off, and it all works and you hit your marks when you hit your marks — it’s all worth it to hear the crowd when you get those big roars.
TT: What kind of guitar do you play?
SIMW: I play, uh, a Fender Stratocast [sic].
TT: Any plans for a Taiwan tour?
Hey, I’m always open to any opportunity that comes my way.
TT: Do you have a message for your competitor in Taipei?
SIMW: Good luck, and bring it — bring the rock, make me step up my game. I don’t want to feel like I just walked into it and got it, I want to feel like I earned it, so make me earn it, make me earn it.
