What are Holy Racket up to at the minute? Playing Wasted Amsterdam on Saturday then next weekend sees two bands from Belgium over for a 4 date mini-tour. Basically doing some great gigs around the U.K. at the moment as we thought it was a bout time instead of always being in Europe(except for end October when we're in Austria!). Who rocks your world at moment? Lars Frederiksen And The Bastards,Oxy Moron,Disturbance,U.S.Bombs,3 Minute Warning, and still Siouxsie And The Banshees(just got their dvd from a gig in London we saw last year - it brings a tear to glass eyes!). Who are your heroes? Heroes is a funny word which can be split into loads of categories so here's a few different ones:Siouxsie(all time love!),me mam and dad,wor lass,a mexican lifeguard who saved me whilst drowning(oops i meant swimming!) in Mexico and i can't even remember his fucking name!There's bound to be others that i'll remember after i'm finished. Favourite bevy and how often do you indulge? I love alcohol - some of my favourites are Jack D + coke,campari+orange( bent, i know),tequila marghueritas whilst lying on a beach somewhere heavenly,wine, and good old fashioned lager if there's nowt else! During the week i mostly abstain(no good climbing ladders with a hangover) but every weekend binge is the word of the day - and on tour or holidays,every night binge! Favourite way to relax? I don't get much time for that lately so we try and go on holiday as often as possible to get away from my computer for a while. Sometimes i just look up and breathe deeply and have a word with my mate upstairs - that always does the trick! You have one of the finest Mohicans in Punk Rock at the mo,whats your secret? That would be telling! Just the good old fashioned bar of soap finished off with a bit hairspray and pulled lovingly into place by me better half whislt burning my scalp with a hairdryer - 5 minutes work to get abuse all day long - not bad eh? Do you have a message for the world? Yeah, loads of them! Pull yourself together and stop being so fucking selfish! Think not only of yourself but what you can do to make it a better place for those who come after you. Do as much for your friends and family as you can while you're here( not forgetting the whole world is related somehow!). And buy a copy of North Rebel Radio while we've still got 'em!(not selfish at all - just spreading joy!).
