A Few Things you probably don't know about me!


1) When I was a kid my mate broke his arm and had a cast and a few days off school, I decided that I was jealous and tried breaking mine by diving off my bike and beating my right arm against a post in the Spinney! I had a nasty bruise and no cast!

2) I lived in London for a while playing in various bands, I once played with a Drummer called Chuck Nowles from NY city, he was in a band with Dave Stewarts wife! One night after recording we went over to this house! He let himself in and I noticed the carpet glowed when you walked on it! Dave Stewart was there and barked at us to take our shoes off! He's still a twat and a Mackum!

3) I got held up in the states by a drug addict who demanded I gave him what I just took out of the ATM machine! He pulled a pathetic little knife out! I just saw red got all Geordie on him and he ran off, any way my mates were watching from inside the resturant we were at and had no idea what the hell I was doing! They thought I was attacking him!

4) When I was in the TA we were doing an exercise in Wales and one of the lads went missing! He had crawled under a tank and fell asleep! it rained over night and sank on top of him! Weird!

5) I once saw Billy Joel in NY city and I was behind him inside a Newsagent! he was about 3 foot tall and had a french poodle under his arm and held the line up for 20 minutes while he bragged about his upcoming album to the indian bloke, of course I made loads of loud grunts to get his attension and when he turned around he gave me the eye! What a wanker!

6) I grew up in the North East and I am allergic to sea food!

7) My brother Darren once smashed a sogging loaf of bread across my neck! or was that Kenny?

8) I used to throw up every time I sat through a pepparoni advertisment from the 80's.

There are many more unknown facts about me but who really gives a toss.
