Here are the main items from the interviews with Klaas in De Morgen and De Standaard this weekend. You can still read the interview from De Standaard here.
- During the past 5 years he hasn't tought a second about dEUS
- He tought it was over after the 1999-tour
- He has been busy with his bar and concerthall Plaza Real in Borgerhout
- He quit school at 17 to play with dEUS
- He considered making a solo-album
- Tom helped him a bit with the RĂ©sistance-soundtrack. The production company of the movie prefered a different kind of soundtrack. The movie was a disaster. Maybe Klaas will edit the things he recorded and release it.
- He can look at dEUS from a distance now. And he finally sees how fantastic the albums are
- ,,dEUS would remain dEUS even if Tom and I leave''
- he compares dEUS with U2. Tom and Klaas have never known anything else than dEUS.
- He and Tom are not the kind of friends that talk a lot about their private lives. Tom wasn't even invited for the opening op Plaza Real althought they recorded NRE the same day
- He doesn't know what Tom's lyrics are about
- In the early days Klaas wasn't happy with Tom getting all the attention
- Stef asked him to join dEUS: they knew each other from school
- the main evolution of the band is that they make more mainstream, structured music
- this line-up is the most professional one
- he noticed dEUS is hip for the younger generation in a way Velvet Underground was for them
- he enjoys being on tour, but since he's a father now it will be different
