76: Jet - Chris Cester on mega-hit 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl', great tour stories with Oasis, and how four Aussies stormed to global success

<div>This week on <strong>The Boys in the Band Podcast</strong> we chat to <strong>Chris Cester </strong>from <strong>Jet</strong>.<br> <br> He tells us about the Australian music scene - or lack of it - when they were forming in the early 2000s and how The Vines drew the music industry's attention Down Under, allowing Jet to capitalise with their brilliant collection of throw-back rock 'n' roll. <br> <br> It could have been very different if it wasn't for a lyric change on 'Are You Gonna Be My Girl', while Chris reflects on how that song and their debut album Get Born launched the band to global success and into a wild, excessive world. <br> <br> From an all-expenses paid month of extreme luxury in Barbados to touring with legendary bands such as Oasis and The Rolling Stones, Chris has some brilliant stories to share. <br> <br> He also discusses the band's follow-up two albums and the bumpy ride they went on through those records, and his new project, The Mystic Knights of Amnesia - named by Noel Gallagher - and their album which is set to launch in 2022. <br> <br> <strong>Jet fan?
