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.

My dad....used to work in a very posh hotel in London. One day,he was under a stairway,fixing a plug or something,when a load of cameras and filming gear moved in,blocking his exit. It turns out they were interviewing Robbie williams,sitting on the stairs. My dad was trapped under the stairs for the entire interview.
Afterwards,as the crew were leaving,Robbie came up to my dad,and apologized for trapping him in,saying "If theres anything i can do.." To which my dad replied,"well,you could sign this bit of paper for my daughter!" I was only 10,its not that bad! Apparently Rob was a very nice guy.
Also,my dad spent an evening in Meg Ryans room,chatting to her,without realising who she was,and,while fixing a light in Chers wig room (yes,she has a separate room for wigs!) he tried on her famous blonde one!
Apologies for length,its the steroids that do it...
