Danny filth
Ozzfest many years ago.
It was my birthday, the sun was shining, i was merrily drunk and in a generally boisterous mood.
I found a blue sticker on the floor, lo and behold it was a staff backstage ticket. RESULT!!!!!!
I proudly waved my way past the security and decided to have a mooch in the performers bar/tent.
Inside i spotted cradle of filth, that bloke from drowning pool who later died and strangely enough... Faye from steps! (WTF!)
Anyhow, i bought myself a pair of beers and decided to have a chat with Cradle of filth.
Now please bear in mind that i didn't look like a typical Goth, or rocker.... in fact i've always been a scrawny, lanky type, and it just so happened i was dressed as colourful as possible (bright shorts, hawaiian shirt and bleached blond hair that had erupted into some form of afro)*.
I cannot remember exactly what i was saying to them, but i seem to remember Danny filth looking decidedly perturbed at my invasion of his post-gig beverage. And because i had a pass, there was no way i was leaving.
It's one of those moments that i wish i had viewed from another perspective, as no doubt you would have seen a jolly looking, flamboyantly dressed northerner, towering over this short arse goth and i was the one freaking him out.
They eventually made their excuses and wandered off.
Result.
*The only point in time i ever had an afro. My hair is usually straight, i have no idea why it happened. I guess some things are meant to be.
(Oh and this was the same festival i noticed my mates recently pierced tongue had become infected and bloated and turned a yellow shade of foulness and it stank too. Yurg)
Length. Six foot four vs four foot nowt.
