What's the funniest thing that's happened to you?
We where playing in Ireland one weekend and on route from a gig in Northern Ireland to our next gig in Southern Ireland. The lads who where driving us had borrowed their mates car to run us around. We where just talking about Diva DJs and their stupid demands when we pulled up to re-fill with fuel, the lads had forgotten that we where in a diesel and filled the tank up with Unleaded! we broke down for 4 hours and had to push the car in the pissing down rain onto a trailer that came to pick us up! It was quite ironic how one minute we where saying how certain DJs wouldnt even speak to the drivers, and the next we are helping push a car down the road in the pooring down rain! we should re-brand as the AA Djs, the Hard Dance scene's 4th emergency service!
What do you have planned for the next year?
World Domination
