But every job I've had I just end up writing tunes and skiving - so everything has been leading up to it, but I've never had any ambition of getting big.

I remember I played Birmingham and I'd been awake for about a week and I was walking about like a raving lunatic.

The worst parts of playing a festival are walking. Not a fan of walking. The mud, I can handle. But the walking? No, ta.

And it's all just from word of mouth. No big marketing. That means the folk who come to the gigs are there 'cause they love their tunes. That means it's real.

Especially with a comedy, you've got the clear cut goal of trying to make a scene funny. It's not like drama where you're trying to achieve some kind of emotion or trying to further the story along. You're trying to figure out what's the funniest way to do something.

You cannot underestimate the value of luck in success in life. And I've really learned to appreciate that.

All those who are around me are the bridge to my success, so they are all important.

Entrepreneurs are risk takers, willing to roll the dice with their money or reputation on the line in support of an idea or enterprise. They willingly assume responsibility for the success or failure of a venture and are answerable for all its facets.
