Harriet: Fantastic and the packers won! Billy: Yeah! Our home team, we were so happy!
Harriet: Ah more music related questions now! Do you feel like a different person to when you started the band?
Billy: Yes and no, truthfully I feel like the same person, but you can‘t see and do what we have without changing a bit. It‘s like saying that having money that only 8% of people in the world have doesn‘t change you, it does, but it means I can look aſter my family and yeah I want to be a rock-star but more impor- tantly I want to be a dad and a husband I know what is and isn‘t important. I‘m happy to be here, so many bands that were around when we started aren‘t anymore, and you do think „how did we keep going?“ Tere are days you think you‘ve conquered the world and the next day it‘s like no one is playing your songs anymore. So you put a new record out and it hits or misses, and you have highs and lows, it can get too much, you take the shit with the good, and I look at Greenday and think okay, you haven‘t had a good album in a while, then American Idiot came out and exploded, because they stuck through and big bands like Aerosmith are still going because they stuck with it. A lot of young bands take everything to heart and it crushes them and breaks them up. Tat being said, you can‘t be the same person, but I still feel grounded inside.
Harriet: Fantastic, is there anywhere you want to play but haven‘t?
Billy: India, Benji went over to visit, Egypt for the pyramids, china would be okay. Moscow we played. Alaska would be cool. I‘m greatful, we‘ve been to lots of countries, but there‘s always more places we‘d love to play, India, as I want to know what the food is like there.
