I could watch this interview over and over... Lovely to listen to real and not "let's-get-on-with-it" answers we tend to hear from other bands.

A new GH wouldn't have bothered me but at least I can enjoy Postcards without thinking I've got to start saving up for another album / singles / tour etc!

Amen!

James always gives great interviews because he's always been a down to earth kind of guy...the most honest of the lot as far as I'm concerned. There's no flash or pretense with James, he just says it like it is. Love him for that!

Good to hear, in a way. A creative break'll do them well. And in an ideal world Nicky would use this break to release another solo album and we'd also get some awesome treasures-from-the-archives release for the fans.

The postcard Nick sent him:

"I am ill, I feel like I'm having a nervous breakdown, everything leads to failure, but nevertheless we must try, it feels as if my body is in ruins, my soul is in ruins, my life is in tatters. But never mind, I will see you for rehearsal next week. Happy birthday, James!"

Double What a cheery birthday message from Nick. Have fun James.

Maybe James means 2 years from when Postcards came out, so that was...wow, 9 months ago, so only 15 months We've still got that Nicky book to come out in November time and No Manifesto might come out between now and the nxt album so it's not all too bad.

That line of reasoning has cheered me up!

As this news was exactly what I was hoping for, I'm very pleased. Come back when you've got something great to give us, boys.
