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.

Honestly, I think we've got the weirdest crowds in the whole world, because if you come to one of our shows sometimes you can have like 80 percent males, 20 percent females and it's sort of totally nuts. It's like really sick and really violent and sometimes it gets really dangerous as well. But other times you've got 80 percent females and 20 percent guys and it's kind of really weird, and sometimes you have like all these different kinds of people. You have teenage girls, older girls, young guys and older guys and all the people in between. And sometimes you even have 40-year-olds. It's weird.

I made a conscious effort to make a record that would affect people in a good way rather than the last one, which affected people in a bad way.

Anyway, we're looking at a career of being wankers.

The bands we admired we're groups that made great album after great album. That's what groups like Led Zeppelin did. I'm certainly not comparing us to them in any way -- but they were an influence. You have to learn from your influences, and I think we have. We want to be doing this ten years from now -- maybe even 20 years from now. We know how important every album is. We're not just a bunch of kids anymore -- we're a rock and roll band that people expect some great things from.

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.'

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.

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.

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.
