“Asia was one my favourites, it’s such a culture shock. I’ve always wanted to go, so to be able to play shows there just blew my mind. I’m such a big fan of their way of life and the food; I love Asian cuisine, so to be able to go to places like the Philippines, Japan, south-east Asia, all that part of the world was a dream come true. The people out there are so welcoming and into listening to bands they don’t even know. They made us feel really welcome, and even though most didn’t know who we were, they gave us the time of day and were really keen to show us their culture – they took us around the best beauty spots, the best swimming spots, the best places to eat. I can’t wait to go back.”
