  • The band's favourite sweets are those sherbert filled 'flying saucers'......
  • ....which may explain why they need to get vitamin injections before and after going on the road since they never eat a proper diet! (it's true!!)
  • Adam has NEVER EVER (!!!) eaten a banana in his whole life........!!!

  • Mark's dad has also served time after being caught smuggling Marijuana through customs.
