How'd you get this job? "I auditioned." What? "Yeah, I auditioned. I was a fan and I had an opportunity to audition. So, I did," he says with an open-mouth smile, revealing his imperfect, wave-like line of teeth.
What was that like? "I think it went okay," he says pensively. "Yeah, I think it worked out."
Well, I'd believe that as true. Tomo's tenure with 30 Seconds to Mars began in January 2003. What's that been like for you? "It's amazing. People talk about dreams and having dreams fulfilled and honestly, it just doesn't adequately describe what it's really like. It's a dream. I'm living my dream. Every single day."
And, the dream is...? "All of the... everything. The shows, the traveling, the fans, the music..."
Tomo married his "cool chick", Vicki Bosanko, in July 2011. What's the dream and everything like as a married man? "Quieter," he says with a big laugh. "A lot calmer. Less weird." No more groupies? "We're not that sort of band," he says as he hesitates for a bit. "Well, maybe Shannon, but..."
Really? "Did I say that? I didn't say that." Wow.
