• How fresh the Debut album feels to this day
• How James relates to his own music
• Playing with U2, Oasis and Kings of Leon
• Not enjoying the Stadium gig experience
• Stealing Bono’s Sun cream, dealing with meeting superstars
• Hearing U2 and being thrown back to being outside Celtic Park as a wean
• Liam and Noel being sweethearts and setting a good example
• U2 throwing him a Birthday Party with a special cake
• Noel Gallagher using European shoe sizes
• Pressures of making the Second record and the process
• The pitfall of making music that you think people want to hear
• Troubles with making the second album
• Being OK with feeling out of control of you art 95% of the time
We'd like to thank James again for being a proper good guest and a stand up guy!
