KASABIAN PLAN HIATUS FOR FAMILY TIME
KASABIAN frontman TOM MEIGHAN is planning to go solo while his bandmates take a break from touring to spend time with their children.
The Shoot The Runner hitmakers will play their final show for 12 months at the V music festival in Essex, England on Sunday (22Aug10) and are in tent on going out with a bang.
Meighan tell Britain’s News of the World, "It will be good to bow out a t V. After tonight we are taking some time off… we are going to have a proper tear-up. V is such a major festival so it’s emotional for us.
"The gigs are great but we’ve worked so hard. It’s the travelling that gets you. You have to look after yourself. We have been to so many countr ies, you forget where you are. It wears you down." And Meighan reveals he will be working on independent music projects wh ile his fellow members take a break to stay at home with their families - because he’s not ready to become a parent like the band’s guitarists Ser ge Pizzorno and Chris Edwards.
He adds, "We are a super-tight rock band and we will be back in the stu dio before long. I will do something musically in between. And I’m thinki ng of doing a TV documentary - I am just going to see what comes up.
"Serge is doing great and our bass player Chris Edwards had a baby as w ell. I’m the only one left without anyone but I’m not ready to be a dad. We have got the break after today mainly so the guys can see their famili es."
