I like girls, they make me feel funny. That's why I like Daniel, he's a femme. He makes me feel funny.

I think that last time, a lot of people thought that we were just a one-shot wonder. This album is basically gonna shove it in their faces and say' look you fuckers, we're here to stay.'
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
I'm feeling good... I feel like sex.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
Darker music turns you into a hardcore motherfucker!
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
I heard that too mate, and I'm not really happy about it.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
Anyway, we're looking at a career of being wankers.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
How's this? I taught my best friend how to seduce my husband!

I really don't know. His lyrics are pretty out there. Daniel's lyrics are pretty personal. They are mostly personal things, and I don't really know what they are all about. All of us are a band and I still don't have a clue what the hell he's on about! But I don't care. I like his lyrics and I think they are really good. I don't think it's the happiest stuff in the world. It's like in some of the songs, it's got dark music as well as the dark lyrics.

Life's a bitch, and so am I. So get used to it.

When we were in Townsville we had a day off so we decided to go to Magnetic Island for the day. We hired some mopeds and went burning around the island. While burning up one hill that had some gravel, I lost control of my front wheel and then it was all over, I went arse over tit. The bike was wrecked.

I really don't take any notice of girls in the audience. I really don't. I just play. I've got a shit view anyway. A couple of cymbals. I can't see jack.

I was only joking, I'm 16. It is pretty cool that you believed me that I was 18. Actually, I was joking again, I'm 10.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
I'm not joking. Does anyone want a date?

Well there was one day Daniel was walking down the street, this guy looked at him, then I looked at johns and he started crying. I put my arm around him. I, you know, I lent a shoulder. I'm just joking.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
I like it kinky.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
Practice makes perfect, and we've been getting a lot of practice. We're not perfect yet, though.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
Aw..C'mon.. This has gone a bit too far now, don'tcha think?

A guy asked me what I'd do if I got a boner in the classroom, and had to stand up in front of the class. I said, "I don't know!" I thought it was funny, though.
Ben Gillies Silverchair -
Daniel is definitely not gay!

We like plane food.

Before we go on stage, all we really do is warm up usually... do some stretches, and drink something that makes you hyper like coke -- plenty, heaps and heaps of coke -- or just caffeine.

Most people think that being in a band is like, "Woah", just touring around and having fun and cocktails...

Music has pretty much taken over my life. I told my dad I wanted to play in a band and make lots of money. He told me I should get out of my fantasy world because it was a million-to-one chance. Now when I'm playing guitar or drums and he tells me to go do my studies, I tell him I can't--because I'm working. He just looks at me, shakes his head, laughs, and says, 'You lucky bastard.'
