Upload How long have you been together and how did you start the band?
Forkna Been together about 6 years
Upload Which other bands do you admire and why?
Forkna I admire Rancid fuckin loads. First time I heard 1998 I was like "That's
fucking amazin", then Rash came back from cornwall with one of their CDs and I've been hooked ever since

Upload What are the band members names and what are their roles?
Forkna Well, I'm Forkna. I try and play guitar and sing. We've got Rasher on bass
and vocals, Ed91 or Dave27 - depending on how drunk he is. He plays lead
guitar, and then there's Ian who plays drums.
Upload What do you want for Christmas?
Forkna Hahaha, I'll have a new leather jacket thanx! Send it to my house. Spot on.
Upload What is your favourite gig that you have played?
Forkna Shit, there have been loads! Brecon was good cause we we had the pigs make their way through the crowd and tell me I'm swearing too much! What the fuck? So we started playing 'To Protect And Serve' (A song about police
brutality) and the crowd went mental with this pig trapped in the middle.
Haha, good times!

Upload If you could swap places with someone for a day, who would it be and why
Forkna Shit that's hard. I rekon Paris Hilton. I'd have that fine body to play with
and all that fuckin money

Upload What other countries would you like to tour in?
Forkna Definitely Japan. I've always wanted to go there. It would be crazy, and
then pretty much any country that would have us.

Upload What is your favourite movie?
Forkna Favourite movie? Err, Sid and Nancy is damn good, or the Evil Dead trilogy I
reckon
Upload Where do you see yourselves, career wise, this time next year.?
Forkna Hopefully still rockin' and supporting more big punk bands that we look up
to

Upload If you were a superhero what would your name be and what special powers would you have.
Forkna I wouldn't be a hero, I'd be a villain called Beerbelly trying to turn the
earth's water supply, including the sea into beer.
Upload What is the maddest thing you have ever done?
Forkna Err, most of the shit I don't remember cause I may have been a bit drunk..
Oh, actually me and Amy C (ARPussy) did have a massive scrap in Oxford with a lot of taxi drivers. One of the fuckers punched her in the face then it
all kicked off..
