What’s your name then? Oh. And the name of your band.

Well I’m Mick Daley, the band is Mick Daley’s Corporate Raiders, as in I own ‘em, they sold their souls.

And what do you do?

Bag out big corporations and sing country-folk-alt-rock-art-punk nonsense.

When did you start?

Too long ago to remember.

What led you here?

I saw a gap. Filled it. It got wider. I fell though it. Climbed out of it, went right back in and disappeared.

Do you think you’re good at doing it?

I’m ok. There’s better, but they can’t rhyme ‘everybody’ with ‘pavarotti’.

If you weren’t doing this, what would you be doing?

Running a big corporation.

What makes you happiest about what you’re doing?

Driving my station wagon long distances.

And what makes you unhappiest?

Big corporations make more money.

What’s you proudest moment?

Supporting Neil Murray in Arnhem Land.

And your least proud?

Trying to sing a Bowie song at midnight to a drunk mob in Deepwater, NSW.
