And I said to them ‘ah there is nothing separating
us apart from I have some guitars waiting for
me when I get there’, so we shared a cab and
we get to the gig I am walking in the front door
with these people with tickets and stuff, and the
security guys said ‘hey you should be going to
the back entrance this is safe’ and I was like what
do you mean this isn’t safe I have been with these
guys for two hours there my friends, we’re cool
and they couldn’t get there head around it.
I thought that was funny as we as people, we
always think there is a class system with bands
and crew or bands and audiences, were all in this
boat together as people right, and that was one
of the reasons I never wanted to sign up to all
this celebrity nonsense as once you do that you
separate yourself from the people who are most
important to you.
R: Do you ever get bored of being ‘on the road’?
Yeah I have a family and stuff I mean, I like being
at home, but I also love playing with my band,
these guys are some of the best musicians I
have ever met in my life if not the best and its
something like I was given a gift and I was able to
play music for a living you know.
I love playing I never get bored as if you get
bored your not playing enough.
There’s a lot to be said that if you don’t enjoy
what you do you shouldn’t be doing it
If not enjoying yourself you’ve got to get more in
touch with yourself, you know.
R: We are also fairly close to the Latitude
Festival and a friend of mine said he bumped
into you at last year’s festival and I wondered
what did you think about it?
Oh, I love Latitude, I think it’s a great festival,
I think we might be playing this year, so hey
hopefully we will see you again soon.
R: Great well hopefully we will be covering it
again then.
And if so we will do another interview then!
R: Thank you ever so much for you time its been
a pleasure speaking to you.
Mine as well thank you very much Rachel.
