Never Meet Your HeroesThey're bound to disappoint - like the time we booked Wayne Hussey for the B3ta Radio Show. Five minutes before we're due to record, Wayne
phones, lost on the M25 with his Brazilian wife screaming in the background. Not so much the King of Goth, as a hen-pecked flake.

Bill Bruford (who he ??)Yes and King Crimson drummer - met him twice and insulted him both times. Third time he'll slot me I'm sure.
1/ King Crimson 'playback', in the queue to get cd booklet signed. Bill turns to his page and I say; "Nice dungarees Bill, (blue and white vertical stripes, very Andy Pandy) still got 'em ?" - Stone faced response - "Yep, and I like 'em".
2/ Peter Gabriel concert, deserted mezzanine, apart from Bruford, cool as fuck in black suit and black turtle-neck. Asked for his autograph ("No, no lads I'm just hanging out" - yeah, hoping to be recognised), and as he's signing I say; "What's up Bill, couldn't get the gig ?" (e.g. drumming for Gabriel). Stone faced response "Not interested, Jazz is what I do now"
