Member answering/role: Paul Galagher — guitar/vocals
How long have you been together? Formally about four years, over a seven year period. It's a long story. Luke joined about a year ago.
How did you all meet? I met Juddy onstage; I jammed with his band for a few songs and then watched him sack his drummer mid-gig, but the drummer finished the gig, like a pro. I met Luke side of stage at a gig he played with Juddy… a long time after that other gig.
You're on tour in the van — which band or artist is going to keep the most people happy if we throw them on the stereo? Iron Maiden.

Would you rather be a busted broke-but-revered Hank Williams figure or some kind of Metallica monster? I guess the Metallica monster just to try something new.
Which Brisbane bands before you have been an inspiration (musically or otherwise)? For me, The Veronicas and Violent Soho. Juddy says Powderfinger. Luke says The Butterfly Effect.
What part do you think Brisbane plays in the music you make? A very substantial part in our new EP titled BRISNEYLAND. The highs and lows — finding a great milkshake, and reading great reviews of milkshakes only to discover first hand they are in fact terrible. It's heartbreaking.
Is your band responsible for more make-outs or break-ups? Why? I have no evidence of us being responsible, but I have noticed a lot of people making out at our shows. Sexy riffs I suppose.
What's in the pipeline for the band in the short term? New single in August, new EP in September, some live shows, some videos, then we start work on the next record. Rinse and repeat, always repeat!
MofoIsDead play The Zoo on Saturday 15 August.
