It’s go time – Change The Record’s Gorgeous George has it out with The Audition‘s mountainous frontman, Danny ‘Teenie Crusher’ Stevens, in a brutal, no-holds-barred match-up. Seriously though, George has a chat with the lovely Mr. Stevens, who seems in very high spirits on his band’s first date of a massive tour with All Time Low in Newcastle. They grapple with the prospect of an Audition headline tour, tap out opinions on the bands new album, and discuss “that Slam Dunk moment” …Hence the bad wrestling references; let the bell ring…
George: Can you say your name, and what you do in the band?
Danny: My name is Danny and I sing.
George: How does it feel to be back in the UK?
Danny: Great. We’ve been coming here a lot, so yeah, we fucking love it here, y’know, it’s great.
George: Are you stoked to be touring with All Time Low this time?
Danny: Yeah, it’s like our fifth time touring with those guys, they’re like our best friends in the whole world, so it’s great, especially since they’re blowing up so huge, and the shows have been really big, and up front, they’re some of our really close friends too, we toured with them like four times last year, so it’s good, it’s a good tour.

Tonight saw pop-punks All Time Low roll into Newcastle for the first time in over two years as they kick off their sold out UK tour. Demand is clearly high, having been upgraded from the 400-capacity Academy 2, to the 2000-capacity main room, and the hordes of screeching 13-year-old girls who have been queuing since crazy o’clock, make it pretty unbearable for anyone over the age of 18.
Well, 20 degrees outside and not a cloud in the sky, this sunny afternoon in Leeds promised to be quite the event. Meeting many bands beforehand and soaking in the excitement of the fans lying in wait, it is plain to see that the sweltering heat isn’t going to dampen today’s exploits. 5000 people are piled into the university today, and although breathing space was at a minimum, the atmosphere was undeniable.
