If we were hanging with you and your band backstage, what would we be getting up to?
Drinking a lot of Jack Daniels. Jack Daniels and Coke. Dressed suited and booted in 60s soul Motown clothes. There might be a couple of ladies there, but all above board. We are gentlemen. Usually the best sh*t happens at the after parties, backstage after the gig. You’re pretty sweaty and tired and it’s not as glamorous as you might think, but definitely a lot of alcohol and a couple of pretty ladies.
If you could request anything on your rider what would it be?
I had a massage the other day down here in Kings Cross… It’s not what you think; it didn’t have a happy ending or anything. It was actually a proper massage. And I’d probably have one of them before every show.
Give one of your personal favourite bands a plug.
The Prodigy is one of my favourite bands. Gotta shout them out everytime.
What's your most essential item to take on tour?
iPhone. Gotta be the iPhone.
What's your secret talent?
Singing!
AND... Where are we best to stalk you: MySpace, Facebook or Twitter? Which one's updated the most?
Twitter… I think.
