Tell us what you’ve been up to since you released No Plans?

“Well, each individual member’s just been doing their own solo thing. We’ve kept in touch, we touch base all the time. No Plans released in 2012 and we went to the UK and did 4 shows over there in July 2012. Pretty much just been back to solo career, I’ve been writing since about a year or so after No Plans. Recorded with Barnes last July, finished that recording this year in March and that one’s all finished and mixed, just selecting the tracks and the order and the title.”

You’ve got your tour coming up at the end of the year, should we expect your classics or will it be a new sound?

“It’ll be a mix. We only get out there not that often. We’ve been over it and over it, we put a lot of work into designed what set we’re going to play. We kind of end up with a short list of 14 songs that we know we just have to play. That only actually leaves room for another 5 or 6 songs and some of those will be new songs and others will be songs like “One Long Day” – we haven’t given that a run in its entirety for years. We get a lot of requests for stuff like that. “

How do you find it on the road now as opposed to when you started out? Is there a bit difference in fan response?

“It just seems to be getting better. It’s amazing, the crowd seems to get bigger and bigger and the age variation gets wider… we’ve got our cake and we’re eating it as well.”

The tour is going all around Australia, do you have plans to take it anywhere else?

“Just to New Zealand at this stage! We did two shows over there on the last tour, hopefully we can cover a bit more ground next time. We’ve always wanted to get down to Christchurch and play for the earthquake victims.”
