3. What's your favourite Brisbane music venue?
The Tivoli hands down
4. What’s the best (or dumbest) thing that’s been said to you at/after a show?
Good question, when we were in America in Texas we had a gig at the High Time Awards after being nominated and the person curating the event said really seriously that we needed to talk to her after the gig. So after walking around the venue for about 30 minutes trying to find her before bailing because we were fucking wrecked she asked us, "Do you Australians eat kangaroos all the time?" I was pretty keen to shoot myself in the face at that point.
5. Why 'Dune Rats' as your band name?
Good question haha.. Danny's neighbour's Dad and his friends would always call Danny and his friends little dune rats because they'd be running around the sand dunes smoking bongs instead of getting into the surf.
6. What makes you smile?
Pussy and weed
7. What makes you cringe?
No pussy or weed
8. Describe the raddest heist you’ve ever pulled off. What’d you steal?
I stole a pack of cymbals from my high school after everyone had gone home on a friday afternoon. It was glorious.

Violent Soho, Millions, Gung Ho, Dz Deathrays, Velociraptor and Last Dinosaurs
10. Give Brisbane some words to live by... we all know it needs some.

11. You are guilty of shameful things. What are these BAAAAD things?
You tell us. We're not ashamed of anything.
12. You can choose one musician/act, alive or dead, to perform with Dune Rats for one night only. Who do you choose?
Probably The Beatles or Nirvana
