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.

Prince PhillipThe Queen and her ghastly husband visited my hometown a while back and I was drafted in to play in a string quartet for the occasion (unpaid I might add - I was bullied into it by the thug conductor of my youth orchestra).
Anyway, we dutifully played our cheesy Mozart and Vivaldi arrangements and then stood up to do the whole meet and greet thing. The Queen herself was perfectly charming, but His Royal Highness Prince Gobshite took it upon himself to snort, "I suppose you lot have all got tape recorders hidden under your chairs, haw, haw, haw!"
I'm pleased to say that all four of us maintained expressions of stony contempt.
