"Sometimes when
we perform 'Geisha Girl' live it's more or less acoustic,"
explains Pippa. "We're never going to become a folk band."
"Pretty much everything we do isn't real," laughs
Richard. "Even the guitar sounds are funny, digital reproductions
of what a guitar would be, so virtually everything comes out
of the computer so I can't see us becoming real about it all."
"Right now we're into plastic, electrical things,"
laughs James.
Would they ever let any non-musical stars remix some of your
songs for example, Margaret Thatcher on 'Rough Lover'?
"I would love William Shatner do a spoken word version
of 'Porn Star'," states James.
Does the band have any superstitions before they go on stage?
"I think our gig's good if Pippa hasn't put any makeup
on," says Richard.
"So would all the children at the front," laughs Pippa.
"Excuse the pun but is there a Posh plan?
"Not particularly," begins James. "We just do
things and bad things may happen. There isn't a posh plan; we're
not strategic. We just splurge."
