Whats the best thing about living in Manchester?
The good thing about it is that it’s quite a big city but it’s not too big. I’ve been to London a few times and it just seems overwhelming. To get from one friend’s house to another friend’s house can take two hours on the tube. I’d hate that. Manchester’s small enough to know a lot of people but big enough to get away from it all. What was the first record you bought? The first 7″ I acquired I stole off my friend, Scott, when I was four. Well, I just ended up with it, I don’t think I actually stole it. It was Who Killed Bambi by the Sex Pistols oddly enough. The first one I actually bought I think was Madness, Our House. What’s next for Alfie? All the touring obviously with Athlete and Flaming Lips and then I think our management are trying to sort out a support tour around Europe next year. We should be releasing the next single around January or February.
