Where are you right now?
I'm in my new flat in Exeter.
Is this a get away from it all and write flat?
Well I've got a month to do some pre-production so I thought I'd
get away from it all and hang out with my mates in Exeter. I'm also
down here doing some rehearsals with John Leckie.
This has been one of the most hard working years of your life
hasn't it?
Yeah it's been amazing. I've been all over the place to all these
festivals - over 50 in most countries you can name in Europe and a
couple in Japan. And to top it all off I think we've done at least
250 gigs during the year.
So you've played with lots of different people?
Yeah, it's been so different. In the states we were suddenly
confronted by all these stadiums playing with Red Hot Chilli Peppers
and Foo Fighters - and that shocked me. We are just a three piece and
I wasn't used to covering such a big stage. That's were a lot of the
on stage antics, that are going on now, have come from.
