Scouting For Girls chat to I Like Music
Although beware, if you go to Glastonbury, of the Pear Cider truck that sells hot cider with two shots of brandy in it. Me and Roy came a cropper on that. I had a couple of pints on the Saturday and passed out in a chair and Roy lost 18 hours on Sunday night after he had a couple of pints of it; that's where the B-side Glastonbury came from, getting very drunk on pear cider. One pint is lovely; don't have two or you'll cross the barrier.
ILM: Your Scouting For Girls album is fabulous with real anthems on there and 18 weeks after it was released it went to No.1 in the UK charts! On your blog Roy said, "I cant believe it. I've been taking photos of my computer screen to prove its true.." Which track did you have the most fun laying down in the studio?
GREG: They were all really great to lay down. Just being able to go to a proper studio and record the songs we'd been playing for a few years was an amazing experience. My highlight when were recording was that we got Pete our drummer to do tambourine on a few of the tracks and, as a bit of a wind up, Andy Green, our producer said, "Pete, when you do it this time try banging it against the floor on your hands and knees, the acoustics of the room will make it sound great, and watching Pete on his knees banging this tambourine on the floor while we were all rolling around the control room, dying of laughter, that was a highlight. And then he walked back and said, 'you guys are taking the piss aren't you?'

Jun: ilikemusic because... music can convey a mood, enhance a mood or change a mood. Music can be used to inspire and the artform is simple yet complicated. It's fun to listen to and even more fun to create and perform. It speaks when just a simple word can't. It's a blessing!!
Sam, Get Cape Wear Cape Fly: ilikemusic because... Music is a special thing that is not like anything else in the world. You might argue that you can translate emotions through films and through books but anyone can make music, whether that be humming or singing along to the radio, it’s something that gives enjoyment and positivity to many people.
Ellen, Los Campesinos: ilikemusic because... It’s the best form of escapism that you can have wherever you are. You could be completely miserable or waiting for a bus and put on any song that inspires you and you can escape into a little world, well that’s what I tend to do anyway.
Tom Baxter: ilikemusic because... It makes you feel alive more than anything else.

Hugo, The Maccabees: ilikemusic because... I just do. I’ve always liked music. It’s just my thing.
