So you guys are back on tour here in Europe after being away a while- how’s it all going?

It’s going great, the crowds have been good so far.

What’s it like playing such massive venues?

I like the big venues, they’re much more fun. I like the sweaty club shows but the big ones feel more epic.
The vibe has been really good, mixing old songs with newer ones, the vibe has been really good.

Do you like coming to the UK?

People make us feel really welcome here. It’s a little cold but it’s not going to kill us- the weather is sh*t everywhere compared to LA!

What are your plans for Christmas?

Just do some Christmas shopping, hang out with friends and family, drink egg nog.

Do you buy gifts for the rest of the guys in the band?

Not really, not unless something really inspires us or catches our eye. It depends on the mood.

Do you have a favourite Christmas film or song?

Happy Christmas (The War Is Over) by John Lennon is my favourite. I like the smells of Christmas too- nutmeg and all that.

What’s the best present you’ve ever given or received?

That’s too hard, honestly I can’t remember.
