I had a pint thrown in my face by the singer of a punk band (can't remember name at the mo - early onset) because he thought I had jogged his arm at a bar. Nice.

And I danced on stage with Bono.

And I danced with a band that supported The Clash (about ten down the list).

Fergal is ok and tbh a good heart is hard to find.

[shame]

I have celebrity anecdotes all of reveal me to be very old or a twat or sometimes a very old twat.

Boon is an 80s tv detective.

I am a twat.

BeribbonedGibbon · 07/01/2011 15:37

snort @ Boon Grin

Feargal gave me the willies, I was a DJ at a dingy goth/fetish club in north London and he used to hang around the bar hoping to get his end away.

Gibbon! Tell more...

No, Pag he chose me from the seething masses and lifted me upon the stage where we had a little dance together.

Hullygully · 07/01/2011 15:40

I met Sting (stood next to him at a gig and said something so shameful (not seckshual) can't bear to recollect)

pagwatch · 07/01/2011 15:42

Gibb. Can I just revisit the dj at a goth fetish club thing...

You are dead cool >

Hullygully · 07/01/2011 15:43

That was me!!!! Don't tell anyone.

Yeah comne on Gib, what did you wear?

BeribbonedGibbon · 07/01/2011 15:45

Alas that is all there is to the tale Hully, I was on a break and went to the bar and he sleazed all over me I made a quick get away Grin

I bet you two could tell a tale or two over a bottle (or two) of wine Grin

OP posts:
Hullygully · 07/01/2011 15:48

But but but. Tell us about the djing and stuff.

My tales are all a bit sad and incidental.

Don't toy with me hully. Was it really?

I want it to be you but I thought she was my age and you are a sapling......

I told Glenn tilbrook to fuck off to the end of the queue when the poor boy was trying to get on stage at his own gig. [ shame]

And of course Freddie mercury adored me ( that old chestnut)

pagwatch · 07/01/2011 15:51

BeribbonedGibbon · 07/01/2011 15:51

Hullygully · 07/01/2011 15:54

BeribbonedGibbon · 07/01/2011 15:55

I did a Friday night and I loved every minute of it

I was paid to play the records I loved, get all my friends in for free and had bouncers up on the podium with me looking after me (felt like a gothic version of peggy mitchell Grin)
