Matt Willis said: "We did Europe with them and then we did Australia with them for a month and it was just the coolest f****** time. Their show and their stage is awesome, and their crowd seemed to enjoy what we did which was great for us because in a lot of these countries no one knows who we are.
"No one knows who Busted is, no one knows who McFly is. So they just think we’re some British band with a ridiculous name who are 10 years older than One Direction."
Matt also told the publication that himself and band mates James Bourne, Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones, Dougie Poynter and Harry Judd thought their pop star days were behind them. Then they formed McBusted. And boy, are we happy they did.
Matt continued: "Me and James talked about going on tour again but we didn’t really see any avenues to do it. It just didn’t seem possible because Charlie wasn’t interested. I felt like we were stepping back already because we were already starting with less of a band than we were.
"I think if you’re coming back, you’ve gotta come back with something strong and something positive. Then this came along and I thought ‘well this will be fun!’ and it just seemed like an obvious thing to do to go on tour with our mates and play some songs."
