Guitarist James Tidswell digs out some excellent memories - including finding out they were nominated for an ARIA award after an interview at McDonald's. Of course there's nothing wrong with Maccies... just if you're gonna be sweeping up backstage at the ARIA ceremony, you don't expect to be slapping on your grey McD hairnet the very next day.
