Give us an interesting story
Er, in my first teenage band I got a handwriten letter from John Peel expressing interest to do a session when the band were tighter. But we'd split 3 months earlier and I'd started working for a bank. It could be YOU, KIDS!

My teeth

Have you been in other bands?:
Not in this decade.

Do you have any interesting stories involving the police etc
As a protest against the poll tax I sent the council in Gravesend a tape of my anti-poll tax rant/song instead of a cheque. They've been sending the po-lice around to every address I've been in since.
