Miha: Actually, I bought him a guitar when he was 11, one of the cheaper ones. I didn't know if he would play or not, and when he was 11... that guitar was actually lying in the corner until he was 14 years old. Until he came home one day and said: "Dad, can you show me the chords?" And I was shocked, like, "Where's that coming from?" right. But in reality, he obviously, I mean... he obviously met those guys from the school band, then, the guys from Joker Out, and they are still together now.
Since Matic and Martin have both left Joker Out, I'm just gonna assume he means Bojan and Kris with "they're still together now." that's completely sensible right

Joker Out mention in the new Miha interview in 🛑 STOP magazine 🫶
How do you feel when you see your son Kris on stage with the band Joker Out? Does it remind you of your early years with Big Foot Mama?
Miha: Yes, it reminds me of myself, I see myself in him. Sometimes, when they have a great concert, I get a bit emotional when I watch them. It was exactly the same for us, except ours was more like a rock party. With Joker Out, it’s serious. Just like when I, as an 18-year-old, went to Hala Tivoli to see some American or European band and our jaws dropped, that's how I felt in Stožice when I watched Joker Out. It really made me go, "Wow." Now I follow them purely as a fan. Their rapid and powerful success is because they were smart and went to Eurovision. We all underestimated the power of Eurovision.
Do Joker Out ever ask you for advice? Have you ever helped them with writing or creating songs, or do you leave them alone?
Miha: I leave them alone, honestly, they don’t pay attention to me. Even when I share my thoughts, they always do things their own way.
How do you see Kris and Joker Out's future in the music industry? What advice would you give them?
Miha: If I gave them any advice, they’d probably do the opposite. I would just tell them to keep doing what they’re doing because they’re doing it well, and not to rest on their laurels. And they won’t. I wish them success, to reach even higher levels internationally. I hope they get serious airplay in England and across Europe. They have every opportunity. They are talented, intelligent, and good-looking too.
