While it's a great indulgence, it's also very interesting to have three bass players on the same track.

I'd love to follow the Tour de France one day. It's a really exciting spectacle. I've only seen it once as it was coming into Paris and that was very exciting for me. I have memories of that.

But when you get music and words together, that can be a very powerful thing.

I can't drink a wine if it has an ugly label.

I didn't really want to give up music.

I don't think I've ever played the Olympia before, but I'm not totally sure.

I don't really have a great deal of spare time. I still have a house in the country, but I'm in London 90 percent of the time.
