> What’s on your rider ? Vodka, tequila, beer. Very rare and fine French cheese and wine in real glasses. Five to six strange teas, and Jaz’s hair dryer.

> What would be on your fantasy rider ? The presidential suite in the local five-star hotel, with full concierge service.

> What’s your pre-gig ritual/ routine ? Group hug.

> What’s the best gig you’ve been to ? Adam the Ants in 1977 at London’s Electric Ballroom. It inspired us to hone our direction and sound. We also just wanted to steal his audience because it was so tribal.

> And the worst? It Bites, 1978, or ’79/’80. They were everything wrong about music that punk had put right.

> What are your favourite and least favourite venues ? Favourite is the AB in Brussels; the worst is, possibly, Wembley Arena.

> Who is the most famous person to have shown up at one of your gigs ? Jimmy Page.

> Most embarrassing on-stage moment ? Jaz splitting his pants.

> Groupies. Would you ? Never!!

> How many roadies does it take to change your lightbulb (ie, how big is your entourage)? It depends on how many groupies are there!

> Have you a special stage wardrobe? Jaz has a flying suit/jumpsuit that I have been trying to get him out of for years. The rest of us busk it.

> Do you like to meet and greet fans after the gig ? Yes I do, as I am selling my books and paintings. For me it’s good to meet people and to chat to them about the band and also my own stuff.

> Any useful stage tips? Never look at the audience when you go on. Never wear red or green on stage, and always have a group hug.

> What’s the worst thing ever thrown at you ? Gob.

> If you could be in any other band, which one? Old School: Led Floyd Zodiac Youth Punk Band.

> Who’s invited to your aftershow party ? Kirsty Almeida.

> What’s your best tour story ? Never mind us – Zodiac Mindwarp’s F**ked by Rock is an amazing read.
