Quickfire Questions #37: Glen Power of the Script
The Script are one of my favourite bands, so when the opportunity rose to ask their awesome drummer Glen Power some questions following their show in Washington DC on 7 November, I took it of course! First, we present you today his answers to the TGTF Quickfire Questions. But stay tuned here to TGTF, because we have a wicked full interview with Glen posting tomorrow morning.
Many thanks to Glen for answering our questions and Taylor for sorting this for us.
