When I first met Laurence I made an instant connection. "We didn't know about that until after we signed with Domino," Kapranos says. One of its intriguing revelations is that Franz Ferdinand became such hot property they were the subject of an intense bidding war, which Laurence Bell of Domino Records won after remortgaging his house. In Meet Me in the Bathroom: Rebirth and Rock and Roll in New York City 2001-2011, Lizzy Goodman documents the explosion of guitar bands in the early noughties on both sides of the Atlantic. Admittedly, it took me 18 years to reach that point, but I’m never, ever going to moan about it. I was lucky enough to be able to find out what my thing is. I first started writing songs when I was 14. Also, I love being onstage and performing. The food was just a device to talk about who I was with, and where we were.” Opportunityįranz Ferdinand are very happy on the road. “Oh my God, I absolutely love it,” Kapronos gushes.

"I was over at the Galway Film Festival with Stuart from Mogwai and Niall McCann, the director of a movie we did about Glasgow musicians called Lost in France. Kapranos is particularly looking forward to playing Galway as the city was also instrumental for the new line up of the band.
