1. What is your favourite cheese and why? Jon: Gouda. It’s Dutch. Or Port Salut, which isn't. Ros: The cheese in my pants cos its free Deadly: Emmanthal – the mother of all cheeses. HandsomeDave: Mature Cheddar because it tastes good.
2. What would be the first thing you'd do if you had a really convincing sex change? Jon: Check out my body Ros: Wank Deadly: Have lesbian sex HandsomeDave: Heal up.
3. If you had to sleep with another member of your band who would it be and why? Jon: I've slept with them all, I think, already. I know what to watch out for with all of them but I get more space in the bed with Ros. Ros: Dave cos he’s the most handsome or jon cos hes the one most likely to give me babies. Deadly: I’ve slept with them all already. They are all great. HandsomeDave: Deadly, because he's the most accommodating.
4. Where do you buy tour underwear and how much of it do you buy? Jon: Usually from a merch stand at the gig. One pair is enough, right? Ros: What? We’ve only ever been on tour for 2 weeks at a time and I don’t need to change my underwear that often. Deadly: Underwear????? It’s a struggle keeping my clothes on in the first place. HandsomeDave: We have them tailor made to accommodate the size of our rock. We usually get through about 30 pairs a week.
5. Who or what do you really hate at the moment and why? Jon: Pop Wankers and all that stuff. Makes my blood boil. Thank god for the internet, where would people find out about new, original music otherwise? Ros: Everyone at college cos theyre all wankers Deadly: Tony Blair, George Dubbya Bush and all the television propaganda trying to brain wash us into a war we don’t need or want. HandsomeDave: Money
6. What band would you really like people to know about? Jon: Apart from mine? Erm, the 'Edible 5ft Smiths'. Ros: 'Reverend Pike' cos theyer great and we released one of their 7”s (on youth club tape club). Deadly: Just one? There are several people should know about and they should get down to their local gigs and see as many bands as possible. But if I had to name one, I would say 'Eeebleee'. HandsomeDave: Jetplane Landing
7. Who’d win the fight: The Grateful Dead OR The Undead with burning spears? Jon: The Undead with burning spears. Ros: The undead with burning spears Deadly: WHO CARES. HandsomeDave: The Undead with Britney Spears.
So… ahem… yes. The Rock Of Travolta shall return all laden with new songs and pretty, ready to take on a new tour early next year. Until then they will be making spot performances across the country. Details of which can, as ever, be found on their band profile!
