Of all the band members, JC's the most casual, but he does make an effort for a date. ''Mostly I just wear
whatever's in the closet. I don't want to look like a swot either. I like casual wear cos that's what I feel
comfortable in and that's important when you're on date.'' So how does JC get ready for an evening with a gal?
''Well, I've to have a shower and while I'm in there I sing. It's like a full concert right there - it's Pavarotti!'' After
