“Music is a huge part of my life and my character. I always had it around me, all the time. It was around when I studied, it’s my first love and obviously it wasn’t just about being a spectator, I wanted to be part of it too. So me and a bunch of friends formed bands… and the rest is history. I’m still surrounded by it, it’s a way for me back home ...
“Well, I was about to say music is everything before, but I realised that its second place, after family. As soon as you get kids you get a new perspective and realise everything else is secondary… it’s not about you any more. It affected my worldview and if it doesn’t for other people, I don’t get it. My mum and dad are still married, I have a bro...

I don’t have any religious beliefs. When my grandfather died I saw that my mother...
“I don’t feel like one. The only time we think of it is when we play a show and we always go into the pub next door and that’s when people come up and want to talk and shake hands. I don’t think any of us ever had a problem with it. There’s no worries if someone wants to come up and talk. I don’t think any of us have ever thought, ‘Oh I’m the great...
“I love playing the shows, I love meeting the fans. That’s why I’m there. But sometimes I would like to have a teleporter to go back to my own little world, my own shithouse, my own shower, my family. I’m a studio guy, I love being in the studio creating stuff. But it’s not like I’m complaining, cos on tour we have a lot of fun and we hang out and ...
