So I think rather than being attracted so much now to working with my heroes, I'm sort of more attracted to working with completely unlikely strangers because it's more exciting really.

The thing about bands is they sometimes go through hard times but they see it through. This is the line-up that saw it through.

It made me feel a bit more inclined to hang out with mates and play music.

I don't really know how to do anything else very well, but I'm just starting to learn a few things about music.

I am really looking forward to it - it's an opportunity to be a musician and not have to worry about finishing lyrics. That's a nice way to come down from touring.

I'm a lifer, yeah.... I can honestly say I'm a lifer.

They thoroughly deserve it... the way they've done, what they've done in that totally independent spirit is very admirable.

I've been thinking about him every single night I've been on stage. I'm gutted I will never play with him again.
