Brendan: Hey everyone, I'm hanging out with You Me
At Six after their killer show at the Big Top
Luna Park here. How did you guys think of the
show?
Josh: We enjoyed it very much man yeah it's really
good. We love coming to Australia, it's always
a good time for us. And yeah, Sydney didn't
let us down so it was great.
Brendan: Nice. Josh how the hell do you keep up that
energy the whole time while still singing at
your best?
Josh: Just a lot of drugs.
Brendan: Nice.
Josh: No I'm joking, I'm joking. Well basically
when you have a band as good as the other four
Brendan: Nice. And I was asking Max before the
show, what his most hilarious WTF kind of
moment on tour as a band. What seems to be
yours? Come on, no juicy details missed. So
the one story that comes to mind that makes
you go, "ha, ha, ha, that time, yup."
Josh: I generally think that every time I
open my mouth into a microphone onstage in
front of other human beings is a What The Fuck
moment. I don't know. You guys really know
when you're like ... I usually embarrass the
boys more than I embarrass myself. So I don't
know. Any moments stand out?
Max: As you say mate, almost every time.
Josh: Almost every time. Almost every time I open my
mouth onstage, it's a prison sentence for them
really to even remotely have me in their band.
So yeah, it's one of those ones.
Brendan: And finally, what message do you have for
your fans, especially the ones trying to
succeed and follow in your footsteps?
Max: You fucking sick cunts. I fucking love you.
You're all fucking sick cunts.
Brendan: What! Who was that saying that?
Josh: That was Max.
Brendan: Aww you dirty bastard. No but-
Josh: I would honestly say I agree with Max by the
way, first and foremost, but I would say that
we just write songs that we like. And I think
if you can write songs that, you as a group,
like, identify with, and enjoy being around
one another, that's the most important goal
you can have in being a band. If you, for some
strange reason like we did, get famous, or
"famous", and play in front of audiences, it's
a bonus. The real incentive should be to make
music with your friends and hang out, and if
you can make enough money, and not have to
work a job you don't like, then that's kind of
why most guys try the band thing. You know?
So, that's why we did it. That's 10 years
later, 11-12 years later when our ... In
Sydney for the eighth time-
Brendan: The most fucking awesome rock band in the
world.
Josh: Well you're right. It used to be Oasis but now
they're fucked, so we're here to help them out
mostly.
Brendan: Well thank you so much for your time and I
thoroughly enjoyed that. I'll be at many more
of these shows. You Me At Six everybody, woo!
