To Remain Relevant Though, I Think Making

Our Band Stereophonics Never Wanted To Release A Couple Records And Be The Biggest Band In The World For 10 Minutes. We Always Wanted To Stand The Test Of Time, And Make Great Music That People Would Want To Listen To And That Music Lasts. We'd Looked Up To Artists And Bands That Had Big Back Catalogues.

We've Got A Great Bench Of Songs, And The People Have A Really Good Time At Our Stereophonics's Shows. People Are The Same All Over The World. If We Can Play Football Stadiums And Arenas In One Country, There's No Reason We Can't Play Them In Another Country. People Are People.

The Culture's Changed Massively. The Kids Are Different, With The Phones And Stuff. Even If You Like A Song, You Don't Really Know Who The Artists Are, It's A Lot More Faceless, It's A Lot Less Tribal. When We Were Growing Up It Was Much More Tribal - It Was Rock, It Was Grunge. Now People Like Songs, [but] They Don't Necessarily Know The Song's Origins. I Don't Know How You Would Feel Angry At The World, Or Distressed, Because Most People Are Constantly Distracted Or Consumed.

Avril Lavigne Sold A Massive Amount Of Albums And She Has To Top That With Her Next Release. We Have Four Great Albums Behind Us, And It's Not Going To Be As Hard To Live Up To That.

If You Repeat What You Did In The Last Tour, The Likelihood Is It's Not Gonna Be Successful Twice. People Are Nostalgic About A Particular Record, Because It's About The Time When They Were Listening To That Record. But If You Do It Again, They're Like, I'm Not That Guy Anymore.
