Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip are probably one of the greatest live acts I have ever seen and more importantly, they're genuinely nice guys. Any time I've been to their gigs (either as a duo or individually, in Pip's case [side note: get your behind to Ireland, Dan le Sac!]), they've always taken the time to interact with their fans (Pip even signed something calling my friend a c*nt, which my friend was more than delighted to receive!). It's rare to get acts like this and hope they never change!
