Interview, starts at 0:45


When Courtney Love visited Japan in 2001, she was recommended several Japanese female rock singers by the music magazine editor of rockin'on. Sheena and Seagull Screaming Kiss Her Kiss Her were in Courtney's favor.
It would have been fun if they somehow got Courtney to cover Gips, ha.
