. “For some reason heaps of people got up on stage and started causing trouble. There was heaps of crowd surfing going on. Our guys had to try to keep it all in order without ruining the party.”

“The great thing about Nuggets is that it was a moment in time that was as inspirational as any time in rock’n’roll."

"For someone who is very result orientated, if they don’t see it come out or see it in a store, it’s like it didn’t happen. As a creative person going through the process, it is quite the opposite. It’s like, ‘We did it! It was amazing! Now what can we do?’”
