Franz Ferdinand: Illegal smugglers!
Permalink  

Franz Ferdinand say they have been busted for trying to smuggle an orange into New Zealand.


The band were on their way to play Auckland's Splendour In The Grass Festival, reports NME.com.


Singer Alex Kapranos revealed the band were fined $200 when airport security found the orange in their luggage.


He said: "They're very particular about taking any kind of foodstuffs across the borders and things, they were going crazy and the X Ray machines were flashing and going nuts, and we thought: "Oh my God, they've found the stash of cocaine!"


"But it wasn't, it was the orange. They didn't give a damn about the hard drugs, it was the fact that we were smuggling an orange into the country. No citrus fruits!"

How rare..... not as rare as edible clingfilm, though (but that's another story)

Just a quick and rather pointless thing here, and correct me if Im wrong, but...


What types of smugglers do you get, other than illegal ones?

 On a slightly related note, Franz Ferdinand are offering a very bizarre download on their website. It's a German version of Tell Her Tonight. Grab it while you can at www.dominorecordco.com/resources/mp3s/03-Tell%20Her%20Tonight%20(Paul%20Sings).mp3
