I've met Suede a bunch of times
Including one occasion when I threw up down myself in front of Richard Oakes and Neil Codling after an evening of Jaegermeisters.
I also met Sharlene Spiteri and Lars Ulrich. That's about it.
Oh, I met hardcore legend Mick Foley earlier in the year, but that because I was there to watch his show.

Brett Anderson turned up at my mate's party
at 5am wearing a dressing gown. Everyone was leaving.

He sat on the sofa being ignored and refused to take the hint that the party was over.

Ha, weird
I thought Suede were great.

My friend Kim roadied for them for a few years.
Apparently when Brett gave up cocaine, he tried to insist that all the crew did the same. They told him in no uncertain terms to get fucked.

I have to say I can't stand the band.

I did hear a rumour once that people like different things
I think it's bullshit myself. Everyone should just like what I like, then we don't need to argue.
Nah, they're not everyone's cup of tea. I guess I just preferred them to a lot of other contemporary british bands at the time.

As Arbiter of Taste for the whole world, I couldn't agree less.
I was into different stuff in those years, I suppose.

Mick Foley is ace, a friend of mine sent me a picture of him shaking Mick's hand recently
I could have killed him.

My friend, obviously, not Mick. Any man that falls off a cell and gets back up is fucking insane

I touched him with my mortal hand
I've got a picture of me, him and Mr Socko together. Oh so proud.

That's quite cool.

I went to see his stand up with Internet Sensation™ and /talk mod Manolith
It was really good. You needed to have a bit of rasslin' knowledge, but it was still funny.

I was quite tempted, but I was very skint when he toured near me, sadly.

Yeah, Manolith will only tour the Benelux nations
Tax dodge apparently
