During this last part of the European tour, we decided to make a questionnaire for the band... We asked them around 10 questions, and they all answered very quickly and very nicely. So, to you, TEXAS, A BIG THANK YOU !!! You're great !
We gave them the questionnaire on the 12th of December, at Bercy, and lucky us, they gave it us back the next day, in Leuven !!!

So, have a look on the Eddie's questionnaire and his alphabet !
