Up Until I Became A

The Music Scene As I Look At It Today Is A Little Different From When I Was Growing Up. The Percentages Are Roughly The Same - 95 Percent Rubbish, 5 Percent Pure.

It's Taken Me To Be An Older Guy, An Old Man, To Have An Old Man's Voice. Because I Only Liked Old Men's Voices. As A Kid, I Didn't Like Pip-squeaked Singers.

This Moment In Time, On This Tour, You Know, I'm Discovering A Lot Of New Things. And To Be 45 And Doing That, It's A Mixture Of Pleasure And Pain, I Can Assure You.

My Selective Memory Of What Drinking Was Like Told Me That Standing At The Bar In A Pub, On A Summer's Evening With A Long, Tall Glass Of Lager And Lime Was Heaven, And I Chose Not To Remember The Nights On Which I Had Sat With A Bottle Of Vodka, A Gram Of Coke And A Shotgun, Contemplating Suicide.

I Don't Have Half The Nerves There That I Have Anywhere Else.
