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.

Not really heroes but...Worked in a shop in Newcastle for 13 years. Whilst there I served
David Byrne, he was a cool guy
Billy Connolly, really nice chap
Darryl Webster, (top time triallist and cycle race fella), splendid bloke
Ant, or Dec, or it could have been Ant, or possibly Dec
Don Warrington off of Rising Damp, took ages to buy a radio, but thoroughly nice
Nicos Dabizas, Newcastle Defender at the time, bit surly
Alfred Marks, who i thoroughly miffed. He asked about printing, I thought he meant as in photographs, he meant business cards, we just flailed about at crossed purposes for a bit before he left looking a bit narked
My mate however, all he served was Timmy Mallett and Huffty off The Word
I think I win
