1
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: Injured himself. But he's back on tour, which is good.

2
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: And you can see him at the end. More figure

3
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,320
Speaker 1: with Ala Hooper. This coming Sunday night. It's James Rain.

4
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: How are you mate?

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: Good?

6
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 3: Phil?

7
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 4: How are you good?

8
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: What did you do to yourself?

9
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,959
Speaker 3: Mate? Nothing dramatic, nothing exciting. I tripped over to the

10
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 3: pavements as I was going down and.

11
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 4: Go protect the hands.

12
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 3: Put the hands. So I twisted, which broke the ankle

13
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:24,959
Speaker 3: and I cracked a rib.

14
00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: So Atlanta on the right side. I'll tell you what.

15
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: The ankle's bad. But that rib when you do rib damage,

16
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:32,879
Speaker 1: doesn't that hurt? That really hurts because you've just done it. Yeah,

17
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:34,959
Speaker 1: I got hit by a cyclist. At first it hurt,

18
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:36,840
Speaker 1: but then two days later it hurt more.

19
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 3: That's right. And never time he sneeze or cough or

20
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 3: breathe deeply, it kills you.

21
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 1: That's right. So you're okay now, though it's not like

22
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: that famous incident where you were on the aeroplane in

23
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 1: Madrid and you tripped and we figured out that the

24
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: James Rain in Spain falls mainly on a plane. I mean,

25
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: that was one of the great moments, wasn't it.

26
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 3: That's very very good, James, Jane falls mainly on the plane.

27
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: You are one of the hardest working piece people in music.

28
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: You're always on tour, so for you to actually take

29
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: time off, was it, in a way a bit of

30
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: a breather. Did it take you a while to get

31
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: used to not being able to do anything?

32
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 3: That's very kind of you to say, But I think

33
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 3: I always keep myself busy though, and I'm when I

34
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 3: did the ankle, I thought, well, you know, the first

35
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,679
Speaker 3: week I wasn't supposed to move much. I might as

36
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 3: well utilize this time rather than sit around filming sorry

37
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 3: for myself. So I'm always trying messing around with writing

38
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 3: songs or you know, doing stuff, you know, So I

39
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 3: keep myself busy. In a great band. It's great to

40
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,600
Speaker 3: be in. This band is so great. And then our

41
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 3: band reverens I'm just a singer in the great band.

42
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: Which is of course your entire CV.

43
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 3: Well yeah, exactly. But everybody in this band is just

44
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 3: fantastic at what they do. So I've managed. It's taken

45
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: me a long time to get the best band in

46
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: Australia together, but.

47
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,880
