Austin (Delay, bass/vocals)

SPB: What is your most common tour food? 

Austin: I am answering on everyone's behalf in the band. I would say our most common tour food is burritos, especially if we are going to the West Coast where, in our humble opinions, the burritos are great, plentiful, cheap, and filling. Plus, burritos can be modified easily for food allergies/preferences...everyone is happy...unless you don't like burritos. Does anyone NOT like burritos? I'd be wary of anyone who claims to not enjoy a great burrito every now and then (and by “every now and then,” I mean every other day). Delay will be eating burritos in a city near you this November.

Faded Seaside Glamour
Sanctuary (2004)

Nothing really sets the Delays apart from other mediocre Brit pop rock bands. They are all trapped in limbo between the achievements of Radiohead and Oasis and the sewage of bands like__________and__________(I can't remember any Brit bands that I thought were absolutely horrendous). No matter how ordinary the band may be, they achieve the same lush and atmospheric sound; many … Read more
