I went to see the Respond Records tour - a load of painfully mediocre bands on Paul Weller's mercifully short-lived label. Such is the loyalty of Jam fans who never saw their real idols. I can so out-do your Howard Jones ticket scan. I've got a Bruce Foxton solo gig ticket from 84, and because I stood around at the stage door after it's autographed. <a href="http://bristlingbadger.blogspot.com/2008/12/from-jam.html"Check it out</a>.

I know Six Minute War was beyond you at that age, but couldn't you have got into Falco instead? Or in other words, Christ – you numpty.

Hey, don't knock it - really like to get you know you well. So we can be one, be one, together. You’re the one on the extreme left of that photo aren’t you?

I think rebirthing was his speciality - I stuck with the scrambled egg on toast. Seemed like a nice enough bloke mind.

I liked Howard's tunes at the time - though I was a bit older than you and never would have admitted it or bought any of his records. Or joined his fan club, you freak. My first gig was Cabaret Voltaire and, just in case you think I was just too cool for school, my second was Def Lepard. I thought they were shite, both of them ..
