The Presets @ VFestival Melbourne
- May 16, 2008
While ligging around backstage at the Melbourne VFestival I managed to corner those lovely breast-obsessed Preset lads before their headline slot. I did get in a couple of standard questions about their art, their music, their new album, their tour dates - but mostly we enjoyed a rather light and fruity red wine, we took the piss out of Billy Corgan (in a friendly, jolly banter way - nothing truly slanderous of course), we bonded over a mutual affection for Sid James and I tried to teach them Staffordshire colloquialisms before realising I got it wrong and had actually taught them Derbyshire colloquialisms. So when they storm the stage at the Stafford VFestival in the UK later this year and shout 'ey up duck' to the nonplussed crowd - blame me. Sorry. Enjoy the video anyway...
