The Unofficial Next Of Kin  Fan Club































So guys, how are you finding the whole video-making experience?
Kieran: It's really draining.
Nathan: But good fun.
Mark: It isn't exactly hard work,it's just more uncomfortable than anything. especially those harnesses!

Which harnesses would those be?!
Mark: Well, to create the effect of us flying we have to wear these harnesses which are attached to this massiva crane.
There are all these wires and we have to wear these form nappies!
Let's just say they're not the most comfortable of thinhgs to wear.
Nathan: Also, we had to keep dropping our trousers so they could attachthe harnesse! That was a little embarrassing,just standing there in broaddaylight,with everyone looing at us!
Kieran: There was a point where Nathan had to drop his trousers to take off the harness, and there was this huge group of tourists just stood around watching him.
Nathan: So I just turned to them and said, 'Having a good look, are you?!

Weren't you nervous?
Nathan: We were more excited than anything,We just wanted to get it
done so we could see the finshed version.
Kieran: Just having to change our clothes so much was a bit of a pain.We
had three outfits in total and we had to keep changing all the time.
Nathan: On the whole though it's been preey good.

You had to do quite a bit of acting though. How did you handle all that?
Kieran: I've done quite a bit acting int he past. In fact,until all this came along, I always wanted to be an actor so it wasn't that much of a problem.
Nathan: It wasn't too bad actually-and can I just point out that we performed most of our own stunts!
Mark: Which I wasn't too happy about at times cos I had my guitar strapped to my back and I was really scared it was going to get scratched. ( We should point out that Mark's guitar is a Joe Satriani-approved model, a v highly respected and admired guitar player.)
Nathan: Never mind that, I grazed my elbow ( Cue the Dirtiest of infections laughts!)

So What's been the best thing about your debut video shoot?
Mark : It's difficult to say really cos the whole thing's happening so quickly.
Nathan: Easy! We got a tan!
Mark: Nathan loves sun-bathing but I can't be bothered.
Nathan: Seriously though, the most exciting bit was probably when we were fliming in the town and there were loads of people stood around just watching.
Mark: Yeah, we were strapped to the back of this van on our harnesses and we were just been driven around with all these people staring and beeping their horns at us and stuff.
It was mad!
Kieran:We also signed our first autogarph which was really exciting. These girls who'd been hanging around most of the day came and asked us. I was dead chuffed.

So how do you feel now it's nearly over?
Nathan : knackered!
Mark: I'm a bit worried about this little rash I picked up from the harness, which is really nice!
Nathan: We're more worried about Kieran though, He's been acting a lttle more barmy
than usual! We reckon all the sun's bleached his brain!
Kieran: Oi!

Finally, what do you make of South Africa?
Nathan: Very differrent.
Mark: Nice though, Really lovely.
Kieran: We sort of expected it to be all sand and desert. Whenever you see South Africa on holiday show, they always show you the outback. you always think it's the kind of place where you'd go on holiday. But when we got here it's all.. town!
Nathan: We didn't expect it to be hot. Not that I'm complaining.
Kierran: We definitely want to come back though. We've made a lot of friends here and of course, it holds fond memories of our first ever video shoot.
