Are you pleased to be dancing?
Mark: Yeah, definitely. I always like new things � too much repetition isn�t good!
Nicky: Absolutely. Before we had our record deal we were like every other boy band out there, singing and dancing. We know we�re not N�Sync but we don�t want to be on stools all the time, standing up for the key change. There�s gotta be a happy medium.
What are you most proud of?
Nicky: It�s not a typical boyband show. It�s not cheesy. We wanted to do a show which would beat Boyzone and Take That, and we�ve come up with something good. You won�t see us having a fake game show in between songs!
Kian, you come on stage with your guitar�
Kian: Why not? It�s just for fun. It�s not like we�re saying �let�s prove the critics wrong because we do have talent! � but I might play the piano in the next one�
Do you have to run off the stage at the end?
Shane: We run off stage at the end and someone plonks a towel on our heads, then we�re on the bus in seconds and back in the hotel bar.
Where does the tour go after this?
Bryan: We do five dates in Europe, then we go back to Asia and Tel Aviv, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, South Africa�it�s a long old trip but it�ll be good.
Which dates are you looking forward to most?
Shane: I�m just enjoying every day. Every night is different end every night is special.
Kian: I�m gonna start flying my friends and family over to party every weekend. I�m enjoying myself too much not to have them involved!
