Dale Bartleson's Quick Questions 

Any hobbies?
I love going to gigs!

What were you like at school?
A massive nerd.

You are given an elephant – what do you do with it? You can’t give it away or sell it.
Invade Wales. My elephant could defeat their sheep.

You’re stranded on a desert island – what three things can’t you do without?
A tablet loaded with a load of films, books and music, including the Evil Dead trilogy and the Lord of the Rings trilogy and every Terry Pratchett book – isn’t technology wonderful that that can now be all one thing! A solar panel to power it. And loads of booze.

What inspires you?
I love talent in all its forms.

You win a million pounds on the lottery. What do you do?
Round the world trip.

What is your favourite word and why?
Yes! It's always better to do stuff than not do stuff, so always say yes to new experiences.

Dancing. It's tragic.

If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
Healing power like Wolverine.

Punk rock and three-piece suits.

Not a lot.

One of the Chris’s. Probably Pratt.

You have written a biography – what is it called?
Same as my album!

Your favourite holiday destination and why?
I don’t have one. I like to explore new places so rarely go to the same place twice. The favourite place I’ve been to, though, is Vegas.

Mint Choc Chip or Pistachio.
