ARTISTdirect.com: Hey, everybody, come on in, make yourself at home. The Incubus guys are ready to for you.and your questions. So sit back and relax!

Mike: Hello, this is Mike. The other guys are out running around doing errands because we just got home from a 12-week tour. So, I'm the lucky privileged one that gets to talk to all you fine people out there in cyberland.

Bizkitfunk: What type of turntable/mixer does Kilmore scratch it up on?

Mike: He uses a Rane mixer. I'm not quite sure what the model is though. He uses Techniques 1200 turntable.

Bluebanana97: If you guys were the only survivors in a plane crash and needed to eat one another to survive, who would go first and why?

Mike: I would definitely be the last because I'm so skinny I wouldn't be able to provide anybody with enough nutrition to survive. We'd probably eat Dirk, our bass player first, because he's got the most meat on his bones.

Estrike123: So, was it cool remaking "The Big Pun Song?"

Mike: Yeah, "The Big Pun Song" was really fun to mess around with. We made kind of a cool drum and bass remix of the song, but utilizing live instruments.

Beffie: Who do you guys look forward to playing with at Ozzfest?

Mike: Let me think about that for a second. I'm looking forward to playing with Ozzie, because he's just THE MAN!

Sey: What sports are you guys into, if any?

Mike: We're actually into a lot of different sports. We like to play soccer, basketball, golf. Three-fifths of the band have been surfing since they were like 10 years old. We like to play a lot of video games as well.

Kelceyownsyou: What is one thing you can't live without when you're on the road?
