In a chippy in Chalk Farm Road, around 1983, my mate pointed at the short arsed blond geezer in front of us in the queue, and said in a loud drunken whisper, "That looks like Sting, only shorter..." It ****ing was him, obviously. Pretty sure he heard, too.
My mate did something similar ... Walked past a wee spiked haired guy at t in park... my mate said that wee guy looks like that lazy eyed weirdo Thom Yorke wee guy said ... I am !
I just finished reading Dave Grohl's biography. I've read a lot of music related books recently. Dave Grohl, Sammy Hagar, Roger Daltrey, Dee Snyder, Anthony Keidis, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Lemmy, Keith Richards, Steve Jones, John Lydon, Bruce Dickinson, Brian Johnson, The Cramps etc Always nice to hear about gigs/clubs/festivals etc that I went to but from the performer's perspective and what got a mic/guitar/sticks into the hands of these people. "I was at that one!" came about quite a lot reading these!
