At first I thought this would only be a short chat but ended up being a fifty minute half drunken diatribe on Creeper, punk, DIY and all things related as we sat around a tent at Hevy festival. And it's awesome.\n\nWARNING: I drop a \"hard C\". That is to say, I use the C-word.\n\nSome back story for you.\n\nWhen we arrived in Ashford, Kent, we procured a sizable cache of booze and jumped in a taxi bound for the campsite. Upon our arrival and much to my dismay, we found out that I was the only one on the guestlist for the festival. After contacting one of the site managers I managed to secure a pass for my compadre Craig and we made our way to the press area to pitch our tent.\n\nOriginally, I had agreed with Creeper’s PR person that I would interview them between 1.30 and 2pm. We didn’t get into the campsite until 1.30 and by the time we finished erecting our tent we had completely missed our allotted time slot.\n\nLater that day, after I completed the hastily rearranged Fightstar interview, I bumped into Ian and Will and apologised for missing our interview slot. They suggested that we do it there and then, so after retreating to a safe area (outside our tent) and cracking open a crate of Fosters, we sat down and began talking.\n\nWhat unfolded is one of the most natural, open ended and honest interviews so far. It’s also perhaps one of my favourites. I had no time to look out my questions because of the impromptu nature of it, but what happened when we sat down was, I think, a pretty remarkable conversation.\n\nMy sound man Craig does a lot of talking. Not that that’s not a bad thing. Just a notice for you.\n\nHighlights include:\n\n\nLoads of bands were mentioned too like Ink and Dagger, Samhain, Danzig, Misfits and a bunch of others.\n\nPeople love talking about their art and what creative influence helped shape who they are. People enjoy knowing that their voice and their art is being taken seriously, and I hope that’s what I’ve managed to achieve with this podcast.\n\nCreeper are brilliant guys who deserve to do well. I've no doubt they'll go on to do big things in the coming months.\n\nEnjoy the episode.\n\n
