We kicked Keanu's arse. How? Well...
Moke were the first band signed to our American record company. Dogstar, Keanu Reeve's band, were the second. The label thought it would be a good idea to send us out on tour together. This made a great deal of sense, particularly seeing as we were both about to release debut albums and The Matrix was doing rather well at the box office.
Being naturally inquisitive souls, we wondered if when backed into a tricky situation, Keanu would put his Matrix style moves into practice. Following a few weeks weaving our way across America, opportunity came a-knocking in a hotel swimming pool one evening.
Now it turns out, when faced with a bit of tasty Saaaaf Laaaaaaaaaaandan action, fancy kung-fu is about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Yes - we did split his head open, but as it was all in the name of fun, nobody thought anymore of it.
Our label, however, were shitting themselves. Apparently, damaging the face of one of Warner Bros' biggest movie stars is NOT a good move. Fortunately, Keanu is a very nice man and the threat of lawsuits quickly subsided. Tell you what though - if our paths cross again, one almighty big can of Whoopass will be opened Reeves, make no mistake about that!
