Hi I'm Ginger (don't ask why I'm called that, it's a long story). Anyway, I have questions to ask Kasabian:
1. I have heard that Kasabian are fans of Quentin Tarantino movies. If you had the chance to be in a Tarantino movie, what kind of character would you play? E.g. a psychopathic hitman.
2. I am (of course) a Kasabian fan and have not been to a Kasabian gig (yet). This is because of having fear of human beings in general and the hatred of being in large crowds. What would you give me to help get over my fear of large crowds? E.g wrap me head-to-toe in bubblewrap to avoid being hurt, or touched for that matter.
3. If you had the choice to get rid of your pet hates forever, what 3 things would you banish into Room 101?

You all have repeatedly expressed your dislike for iTunes and the download culture it has created. Yet, much to my dismay, not only was Underdog released as a download only but you/your record company also made two bonus songs on West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum available only to those who purchased it via iTunes. So are you not perpetuating that culture you so disapprove of by essentially forcing fans such as myself who like to purchase the physical albums to have to use that vile service in order to obtain your music?
P.S. I'm still holding out hope that the gap in my vinyl/cd collection will be occupied by a physical release of Underdog.
Oh, and Tom there is a rare group of people in America who don't have horrible taste in music because we love Kasabian ... I nonetheless apologize for America's musical misdeeds and ask that you don't forget us over here...please.
