Gaz Harding ofThe Kinetiks..
What's on your rider?Ingredients to make the ultimate cheese and ham toastie (cheese, ham, toast)
What would be on your fantasy rider?Already-made cheese and ham toasties.
What's your pre-gig routine?Arguments over who gets to wear the wife-beater vest (between Jim and me), and arguments over who gets to wear the chequered shirt (between Sean and Paul).
How do you get to the gig?Depends on location; let's just say walking or in a limo would be considered last resorts.
What's the best gig you've been to?Arcade Fire at Electric Picnic 2006 was pretty special.
And the worst?We played a gig in a town in Mayo – to the bar man, who alternated between looking at us to watching the Late Late on the TV behind the bar.
Ecologically speaking, are you closer to Radiohead or Motörhead?I'd have to clarify what "ecologically" means, but I'd have to say Motörhead.
Who is the most famous person to have shown up at one of your gigs?Aidan Walsh, Master of the Universe.
Most embarrassing on-stage moment?Looking out into the crowd and seeing Aidan Walsh, Master of the Universe.
What's your crowd-pleasing number? A Smile'd Crack Your Face. It's got a catchy chorus that people seem to go for.
Chatting between songs – good or bad?I'd say good as long as it doesn't drag on.
Groupies – would you?I'll have to say no. My girlfriend would beat the living crap out of me.
How many roadies does it take to change your lightbulbs?Generally it's just ourselves, our manager and a back-line tech.
Do you have a special stage wardrobe?We've a standard issue Kinetiks uniform of black drainpipes and pointy boots.
Do you like to meet and greet fans after the gig?Only if they say nice things about us.
Any useful stage tips?Always have spare plectrums at the ready. Those little guys are really hard to find if you drop them.
