What’s your most Rock Star moment?
Being a few feet from Jarvis Cocker at the NME awards, he had a dashing suit.

Do you have any pre gig rituals?
I usually change shirts and throw some water over my face.

What’s the most pissed you’ve ever been on stage?
I think potentially in a show in Birmingham, it was a 1am show and the crowd were all really loose. I can remember a few hits here and there.

What’s the best gig you’ve ever played?
Supporting the New York band Suicide in London, very humbling.

Ever had a mid-gig injury?
I had a blood nose before I went onstage, and walked on stage and cut my right foot on a piece of glass, it was a really painful experience.

 
Funniest groupie proposition?
The singer of Sigur Ros tried to take me home, I politely declined.

What’s the most evil thing you have ever done?
If i said that they wouldn't be evil anymore.

What’s the craziest thing you’ve seen at a gig?
Wade threw his bass into the crowd and collected a girl in the side of the head, it was really horrible and she had to go to hospital, it turned out to be one of my best friends new girl that be hadn't met yet, he apologised and it is now all good!

What can punters expect from one of your gigs?
So good ol' fashion fun.

What’s the worst state you’ve ever left a hotel room in?
In Brisbane we played a launch for a friends denim company, we had this beautiful apartment looking over the city and had a party after the show, some girl brought gummy bears over and left them throughout the house. We woke up the next day and the gummy bears had been walked into the carpet, the owners arrived at the apartment and starting crying, we seriously felt fucking so bad, i take this time to apologise again.

 

The Scare's latest album, Oozevoodoo, is out now.
