First Music Purchase :

First Gig You Attended :
.I think it was Tone Loc & Collette @ the Hordern, or maybe Public Enemy @ the Hordern.. It broke my hizeart when the kids started pelting Collette with bottles. Tone Loc cut the show short in disgust….

First Kiss (Where, When & Who) :
.Kelly Randall’s party, Year 5, Sarah Findlayson. She was all about gettin’ with high school boys n I was all about my reflex sk8board. The bottle pointed, and she turned me into a man-child. Her tongue scared me in a good way.

First Run In With The Law :

.Further, Warped, The Nation Blue, The Emergency, TheHead, The Night Terrors, Decoder Ring, godheadSilo (the original and BEST two piece band, rekognize!), Prince, Ween, JT, Public Enemy (pre 91), Ultramagnetic MC’s….

Fave Show You've Played :
.Every showz a winner baby, thatz tha truth! But the Warped show @ the Tote in June 03 was totally killer. Or the show with The Nation Blue & Further, as that advanced my soul.

WHAT IF'S :

If you ran into your old school mate and found they were begging on the street, What would you do once you saw them?

If you could be any soapie/movie character who would you be,and why?
.I’d be Alf Stuart, coz he’s a larrikin with a heart of gold.

I’m driving to Melbourne for the Magic Dirt show, and me & the girlz have the raddest music taste. But if I was gonna make a prediction, it’d be A-Blade & her Bruce Willis 7” of Respect Yo’self..

Embarrasing thing you've done on tour? .Blowing my shortz out @ the Rob Roy in Melbourne this year. The crotch totally blew out, leaving my haggard undiez as the main event. It was a ruggers miniskirt, I’m thinking about selling em @ showz. Cum 2 think of it, that wasn’t embarrassing, but it was full-house-john-stamos-radness!.

Embarrasing thing you've seen on tour?
.The facez of the two girls sitting in the front row looking straight up my ruggers miniskirt. They stayed there the whole show tho, mo’ powa to em!.

Memorable Tour Memory?

The worst lie you've ever told?
.A Spod show isn’t the best thing in the entire world. I feel bad even fo’ repeating that shiznit..

Something You've never told anyone before?
.Never drown in the tears of a clown.

Something no-one knows about one of your bandmates?
.Their true identities and their alter egos.

A word of advice for those playing the pubs on Tuesday nights.
.Anyone who turns up to your shows are more important than you, without ‘em, you’re just another fool on stage by yourself, crying, dreaming of a white xmas & Alyssa Milano in the aforementioned white xmas. Respect your friends who turn up when no one else will and always love what you’re doing coz for all you know, you could totally suck to everyone else. But what do they know anyway….
