We typed up the first issue on my dad’s olde worlde typewriter and then literally cut and paste on to A4 sheets using scissors and glue. I used to write a music fanzine - it was called Incredibly Inedible and I co-edited it with my mate Jackie. I can’t begin to tell you how terrible it was.) My first paid writing gig was for a listings magazine in Birmingham - (Actually my first unpaid writing gig was an interview with Kitchens of Distinction for Salford Student Magazine. I can’t play any instruments or sing so writing about music seemed to make sense. It didn’t last long.Īfter I left university I wanted to write for the NME - I’ve always loved music but it was only when I went to uni that it started loving me back. I also used to live in Manchester - another great city (although technically I lived in Salford which is next door but that’s sort of splitting hairs).īefore I went to university I wanted to be a social worker - I have no idea why. I used to live in London - a great city too. I was also born in Birmingham - in my humble opinion the greatest city in the world with the nicest people too. I was born in the 70s - the 70s were great.
