1, 2, 3, 4! This week, Nathan and Will are joined by Dave and Si from London-based Ramones tribute act I Wanna Be Sedated, who channel the timeless punk rock energy of the legendary Ramones.

Dave discusses how tribute band dynamics are often the same as original bands, how he stepped up to vocals after realising the original singer wasn’t up to scratch and falling outs with band members over names on a logo.

We learn the secret behind the bass players’ stylish wig vs the rest of the members hair pieces, and what the perfect gig payment would be (clue: it’s beer).

Will also reveals his star review rating from when he saw I Wanna Be Sedated play recently.
