what a fantastic interview!

@davyro66 LOL! Yeah, it's totally insignificant - It was more of a piss-taking off the cuff thing from me originally; Josh is a big fucking fella - Troy looks small next to him. In the end, I don't really care whether he's a bloater or a bean pole; he's fucking incredible. It is a great interview - theenigmajames is right.

[RectoBold]

@theenigmajjames Ye - Sure, but I saw them after that interview live and Josh had let his hair grow a bit since then; he's a little slimmer these days too after touring but back then our man was looking a bit well fed, methinks. Touring can knock punds off in a month, let alone a few... ;)

@IamLudes what does that even mean?? I guess he should go online and check out what every cocktard lameass like you thinks he should be and emulate that? Your a fucktard.
