Nicky Wire on dining out?

I'm not sure if I imagined this but was there an interview/article with Nicky Wire as having said dining out/food was overrated or something of the ilk? Think this was about a year ago? Can anyone confirm or provide links? I'm not referring to the Mumford & Sons comment btw

I think the less said about Nicky Wire and dining the better...




That does sound familiar though. He had a mini rant on Saturday Kitchen about his theory that there's a correlation between good food/crap music and crap food/good music.. There was a quote I loved from that, paraphrasing like, summat along the lines of whenever they're touring James and Sean are out sampling the local cuisine and he's just looking for a Dunkin' Donuts.

Can't help but think of this verse from The Ballad Of The Bangkok Novotel (Ocean Spray B-Side)

Breakfast, my mouth tastes like piss
Masturbation, there's nothing left
In a daze, anorexic haze
Look outside and join the insane
The bug inside of me won't go
Egg and chips is all I want
So hungry I can taste home
Wake up screaming on all fours

Dunkin Donuts, eh? That's yummi! Too bad my digestion system can no longer handle such greasy food. So... I'll just have coffee, thanxxx. Oh, okay, maybe ONE doughnut will do me no harm. ♥ *blink blink blink*

Yup, he mentioned in my interview in Derby in 2010 that he had taken the band and crew out for dinner because he was bored but he hated it and he prefers his mum/wife's cooking. Link below but not sure what question it is on.
