Who rules the Rooster?
Nick Me, no Ben. Ben thinks he rules the Rooster.
Luke No, it’s democratic we all rule different areas.
Nick Yeah, I think that’s how it is with all the best bands. They all know what their roles are. You should look at the Chilli Peppers. We watched the Chilli Peppers. They all work really hard on their own individual bits.

So, you don’t have any rifts between each other and get on really well
Nick Yeah
Luke But it gets tense every now and then. So we’ll throw a punch and then a high 5 and then a punch.

What makes you different from other bands?
Luke I think our music does. We’re a lot different to a lot of the music in the charts but I wouldn’t say we were a lot different to every other band.
Nick I think we fit in a space between horrendously cool guitar music like Razorlight and the Killers (uber cool bands) and the commercial rock thing. I don’t think there are too many bands like us. Rock is no longer a dirty word. It’s coming back to force and that’s good for us.

Do Rooster like Joosters and other fruit based sweets?
Nick Well look here’s an empty packet of fruit gums (We’ll take that as a yes then…) They're wine gums though. Are they like really lairy Jelly Beans?
Luke Like Jelly Beans but really sickly.

Laura - Yeah Joosters are like Jelly Beans, but I actually quite like them.
Caroline – I’ve never had a Rooster!
Nick You’ve never had a Rooster?! Ben can sort that out for you no worries.
Nice. Thanks!

How annoying is it being compared to Busted and Mc Fly?
Nick Well people who compare us to Busted and Mc Fly obviously haven’t listened to our music so it doesn’t really bother us that much to be honest. Although we have met Mc Fly and you do just want to give them a hug. One of them just turned 17 like two days ago. They’re really nice and we did just really want to hate them.

We’ve heard rumours the Rooster like a good roasting do you deny or confirm these rumours?
Nick What's roosting?

No, roasting...
Nick pointing at Luke You like Pork
Luke I don’t like pork (random..)
Ben I don’t like roast..any kind of roast I’m out of there. If my family has a roast I have a baked potato
DaveWhat, a baked potato? So your whole family is sitting there eating a roast and you've got a baked potato on its own? You loser!
Nick Do you live in one of those houses where your Mum cooks a different meal for everybody Ben?
Ben No i make it myself, i just don't like roast
Nick If this is a question about Sunday roast then it looks like it’s three yes and one no then!

If you could have three wishes for Christmas what would they be?
Nick Peace...an end to poverty, (how very Miss World)...two weeks off...a million selling album
Dave A periscope so I could sit in the bath and see everything!
Nick What, if you could have anything you'd have a periscope? That’s a very Dave answer.
Dave Don’t put that down

Okay
Nick A number one album. We have to say that. A number one single...ermm, Fearn Cotton

Everyone likes Fearn Cotton? Why? She's irritating.
Nick She’s pretty and she likes really cool music. Very nice, but like that (gesturing at her skinniness).She’s going out with a guy from the Lost Prophets!
hOOchy* exclusive ‘coughs’
(We’d tie her down and force feed her King Size Mars Bars. Anyway, moving on before we throw up)

How Rubbish do you think the new band aid song is?
Nick I actually still haven’t heard it.
Luke I’ve heard it and I’m not to keen on it...they should have done a new one. They’ve got some really good songwriters in there like Radiohead. I mean we didn’t even get asked and there’s no Freddie Mercury.
(We’ll take that as a thumbs down then)
Dave Rachel Stevens did it but wasn’t even asked. Apparently she just turned up on Daniel Beddingfields arm and joined in.
(Another hOOchy* exclusive! We dig up all the dirt!)
Nick We met Rachel Stevens, she's lovely but not many people know how short she is. She's tiny

Have you had any strange fan requests yet?
Nick Somebody asked me to sign her teeth.
Luke I had to sign somebody’s forehead.
Nick We’ve signed a few breasts which is nice! They just ask you for stuff. They just expect you to give them stuff. It’s not enough that you give them your heart and soul on stage. They go, 'Can I have your shoes? Other bands give me stuff!'. It’s either that or, 'can I have your t-shirt?', and I’m like, no, it’s MY t-shirt!!. They ask us to do silly poses, they say 'can you do something funny for the photo'. Or they want us to do our logo or whatever. And they ask you to write silly stuff. Like this one girl asked us to write 'I like chicken nuggets and chips!'.

We decided it would be fun to ask the boys to identify body parts which we took earlier on a digital camera. We also decided to give the ‘round’ the name ‘Bodies’, as in the Sex Pistols song. Genius.

1.

Oh man that is rank! That’s like....What is this? That’s like someone’s ear...YEAH!...and there’s the cheek there.

It’s a nose and a cheek

It's a nose? Oh yeah a bit of somebody’s nostril and there cheekbone...mouths down here..that’s crazy, but it’s a bit easy now.

2.

That’s either there (points to space between thumb and forefinger) or it’s somebody’s butt crack, or fingers?

Yeah it’s fingers.

3.

Oh that’s a tongue.

Yeah, you’re good at this, (or maybe our pictures wee abit too easy!)

Look how rank tongues are...tongues in general i mean - I wasn’t talking about your tongue.

4.

Lips! its got to be lips. Jaggered up!

Right, again!

5.

That’s the ear, right?!

Yeah, well done, 4 and a half out of 5

It’s time to wake up to Rooster!
