The ultimate questions on life,sex and shaving.This week,Johnny Colt
of THE BLACK CROWES gobs off to Morat...

LAST TIME YOU TRAVELLED BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT?
"Aeroplanes don't really count do they?It was in Paris,on the
metro,and i got a fine of 100 francs on the spot for not getting the
right ticket."

LAST TIME YOU GOT REALLY DRUNK?
"In Chicago,on last summer's tour.I got lost and i got stopped by the
cops.They took my ratchet knife from me cos i was so drunk.I had a
really good one with an elkhorn handle."

LAST TIME YOU WENT INSIDE A CHURCH?
"Shit,i don't know.There's been no funerals lately.Maybe it was in
Chicago to pray to the Lord to save me from that hangover..."

LAST GOOD FILM YOU SAW?
"It was called 'Chinese Ghost Story' and i can't pronounce the
director's name."

LAST TIME YOU DANCED IN A CLUB?
"That's a long time ago.It was at the Queens in Paris.I danced
shirtless for Chris (Robinson,The Black Crowes singer) in this huge
gay bar.It was his favourite birthday present ever.I took my shirt off
and danced on the table,and i got quite a crowd around me.I didn't
really get of there without getting hit on by a lot of guys."

LAST TIME YOU WERE HARD TO HANDLE?
"At the end of the American leg of the Crowes' tour,i flew back from
Las Vegas with my dog.I bought a ticket for her and everything -
totally legit - and i got in a fight with security cos they said she
didn't fit far enough under the seat.I almost ended up in a brawl with
them,but eventually i won."

LAST TIME YOU GAVE MONEY TO CHARITY?
"I've never given money to charity.Unless you consider buying my
friends drinks charity."

LAST GIG YOU WENT TO?
"Seeing the band open for us doesn't count?Er,Neil Young last time i
was at home,which was last November.I don't go out very often."

LAST TIME YOU DID SOMETHING EMBARRASSING ONSTAGE?
"I guess that's a matter of opinion.But i'm gonna say it was at the
Universal Ampitheatre,Los Angeles on the 'Southern Harmony..'
tour.They waxed the floor and no one told me,so i ran out onstage and
my f**king feet went right out from under me.I landed on my back
pretty much half way through the first song."

LAST PLACE YOU WENT TO FOR A HOLIDAY?
"Jamaica.It was really good.But my whole life's a holiday."

LAST PERSON YOU'D WANT AS A FRIEND?
"Morat!"

LAST TIME YOU BOUGHT SOMETHING YOU DIDN'T NEED?
"My Harley Davidson - i didn't really need that."

LAST TIME YOU WANTED SOMETHING YOU COULDN'T HAVE?
"Ever since 'Southern Harmony...' i've wanted a Number One record,and
i can't have it."

LAST TIME YOU HAD A SHAVE?
"Two days ago.But i only shave one part of my face.It's been years
since i had proper shave."

HOW LONG CAN YOU LAST?
"As long as it takes."
