	Ben Gillies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		Gillies, though, is unlike most others his age in two distinct ways: First, he's more likely to correctly mimic Zep's legendary licks, and second, while he's doing so, countless other drummers are undoubtedly at home somewhere air-drumming to his performances.
		Gillies, guitarist Daniel Johns, and bassist Chris Joannou were just high school freshman, jamming in each other's garages in Newcastle, Australia, when their demo for the song Tomorrow fell into the right hands.
		Gillies foresees a large investment in Kevlar, because with no school to return to after the spring, he and his bandmates expect to spend much of 1997 and 1998 on the road.

		Ben: We thought about all that stuff and we actually think that when in the year 2000 or some time in the next 10 years that our music will be out of fashion or uncool because that always happens, like the '80s now are uncool.
		Ben: Daniel did go through a stage where he was depressed for a while and a lot of his lyrics were written around then.
		Ben: I think when we were younger and we first started we were like 14 or 15, we hadn't ever done interviews and we didn't know what to expect, so we were just going, "Yeah...

	Silver Chair
		SILVERCHAIR (BEN): Usually, we did the rough arrangements in a loft where we practiced, and then we went to a rehearsal studio where we did a production, then cut away and sift through the songs, add things and take things away, and then record it.
		SILVERCHAIR (BEN): Daniel actually came up with the new idea of the album, because while he did the writing and stuff, Chris and I took full advantage of the time off and went surfing and had fun basically.
		SILVERCHAIR (BEN): It was actually Daniel's idea behind that, it was kind of political, being from Australia, there was a political party that wanted to put restrictions on young people, people under l8.

		Not only was I disheartened to learn that they don’t really have bizarre first names like Libby or D’Arcy, nor do they have exciting nicknames like Toady, but that their lead singer’s name is composed of two of the most boring first names ever: Daniel Johns.
		But like the drummer Ben Gillies points out in the making-of, they have all grown up a little more, and they can all play that little bit better.
		Ben Gillies pounds those skins into thudding submission while Johns presumably describes the public-transport traffic arrangements in Australia (kidding, kidding).

		In contrast to their previous albums, for which songs were written during short breaks between educational and touring commitments, Neon Ballroom is the product of six months spent solely on creating songs around a distinct musical vision.
		In this expertly crafted amalgam of music past, present and future, silverchair still all only 19 years old have created an album that is truly timeless.
