Who knew they moonlight as comedians?!

One of my all time favorites is from an Australian TV show Joe and Phil did when they were promoting Vault, and taking a break from doing Slang.

Presenter: "I read somewhere that Rick Allen goes through something like 800 drumsticks in a tour."

Phil: "Well, it's 400 now."

Joe: (laughing) "Sorry, Rick!"

Phil: "Yeah, sorry!"

Oh, my goodness, I nearly fell off of the sofa when I saw that!

I saw the video (at least I think it was the same one) on You Tube.
