I want to official say sorry to the good folks at FBI. They do a hard days work and don't deserve to get crapped on by us. I was totally bummed on how weird and misunderstood the interview was we did at FBI. I was hurt by the over sight of the DJ by being called by different names and having to defend myself and our songs live on the air. In an impulsive moment backstage in Wellington, NZ I wrote a really messed up post about what I felt happened during the interview. I mistakenly thought The DJ at FBI was intentionally trying to be offensive to us and he should be able to take criticism back. I went too far and made a poor error in judgement. I really honestly forget that anyone other than the friends I have at home read this blog. I really want to reach out to all the people at FBI and their fans who may have been offended by my petty knee JERK reaction. I hope you will please accept my sincerest apology.
We had such and awesome time in Australia and New Zealand, I would hate for this to be a blemish on an otherwise incredible, inspiration, and overall beautiful tour.
I am sorry. I welcome all criticism and comments.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.

i dont think either persons actions demonstrated a deep flaw/fault. everyone knows that experience of mis-judging a few things and regretting the following consequences. no biggy. glad you enjoyed aust.
Hopefully the shitty crowd at Sydney Laneway doesn't deter you guys from coming back here soon

NOOO!....It's such a bummer that you apologized, Randy....We all know that Radio DJs are ubiquitously prone to railroading bands they DO NOT like and blowjobbing bands they DO like...As photographed, this dude was obviously way douchey and deserved your comments....The online waves that this situation caused accentuate the fact that those of Shag's ilk are endowed with such minute amounts of self-esteem and self-worth that any flippant criticism goes straight to the groin...Too bad these insecure nitwits couldn't have displayed those internationally lauded qualities of Aussie professionalism so famously embodied by Paul Hogan, Nicole Kidman, Naomi Watts, Cate Blanchett, Hugh Jackman, Heath Ledger, Russell Crowe, Jacinda Barrett, Eric Bana, Isla Fisher, Hugo Weaving, Abbie Cornish, Guy Pearce, Toni Collette, Geoffrey Rush, Rachel Griffiths, etc., etc., etc......
