the absence of health and safety is at 'powers of wexford' level.
everyone in the painting shed must have had serious respiratory problems in later life..
I played in the Charing Cross Road Marquee. Little known fact.

Bob Geldof is in this?
I guess no reference was made about his incident at the Macroom festival?
Standing in front of us was one Johnny Rotten aka John Lydon (of Sex Pistols fame0, along with Bob Geldof of the Boomtown Rats and a publicist I was to meet later, as well as a few other friends of theirs. Lydon had come in with this bucket of urine, and his friend had another one, and they threw it at the band. Me and Lloyd rushed over to stop the second bucket being thrown. The security was quickly there and they were thrown out. Yes, Sir Bob included! Rory was raving, although none of the urine reached him. If it had gone on his guitar or the amps they could have been electrocuted or set alight.

How does anyone give bob geldof any time or attention at all ?
Yes he helped set up OG live Aid and fronted a band that hand maybe a few charting hits. I don't think he ever has anything good or interesting to say in his boring entitled drawl
Live Aid was not a good thing.

Who the fuck keeps giving the wasters airtime?!

I have no doubt he meant well he's just a fucking eejit
Perhaps he should have listened to the people with experience instead of chasing clout and ego fulfilment.
