Beast Feast Focus: HITS

"They found Foster's beer and said, 'This is shit'."

Answered by: Gregor Mulvey — Drums

What five words spring to mind when you hear "Oz rock 'n' roll"? Carlton, Draught, Tooheys, dads, testicles.

Why do you think some Aussie rock bands find more success overseas than on home turf? Because it's quite elementary. Baby Jesus sent them far away. They found Foster's beer and said, "This is shit". So the locals came back home and lynched vigilante justice. That's what Andy B on bass guitar told me anyway.

What's your favourite Beast release and why? Slim Wild Boar… Because she has all the right grease in all the right faces.

What to you is the greatest Oz rock song and why? That would have to be I Took A Shit Down Your Chimney by Andrew Stafford & The Duck Hunters.

What are you most looking forward to about Beast Feast? The European wild boar they're bringing over. They saved the tail and testicles for me.

Beast Feast is on at The Tote on 19 & 20 Feb.
