 5. What has been your favourite show to date?

Big Day Out 2013 in Sydney was easily the best show we’ve had!

 6. How does social networking help the band?

It’s a really easy way for fans to connect with us and keep up to date with what we’re doing as well as being really easy for us to share info with fans and let them into our world a bit.

7. What does mean to connect with your fans?

We love interacting with our fans, the fans are everything, they’re the reason we’re doing what we’re doing and we couldn’t do it without them!

8. What has been the craziest on tour experience?

We’ve got a few good tour stories, one member got wrongfully arrested, our singer got ripped off stage by a fan that wanted to make out with him, a cop once rammed the tour van accidently, all sorts of good stuff!

9. If you could put the ultimate festival line up together who would be on it?

I’d get the line-up from Coachella/Glastonbury/Lollapalooza and Bonaroo festival and mash it together to make one crazy festival.

10. Where would you most like to play?

At any of the above festivals would be nice!

11. Who would you most like to collaborate with?

Kanye West

12. What next for the band?

We’ve got another single that we’re about to release soon as well as film clip! After that we’re gonna have a huge announcement but we can’t talk about it yet!

13. What does 2013 mean to you?

I think 2013 is gonna involve some of the hardest work we’ve ever done, we’re gonna be doing alot of touring in Australia as well as overseas, whilst also writing and recording our first album.
