Everything. As It Happens.

That is excellent news.
I had a pint with Graham Coxon once and he told me about the time he shifted Sinéad O’Connor. True story.
Next thing I know, I was sucking boob
…and then Sting fell down the stairs…
Tell us more…
Not much really. He was very drunk; I was fairly drunk. It was a pub in Camden, London. He speaks like he sings. He said it happened when his band was called Seymour – he didn’t mention Blur by name – and they were in Dublin to play a wedding. I think he said he was 17 at the time, though I’m not sure. I noticed I paid for a couple of pints for him, but he didn’t get me one back, and there were some shitty people nearby being very nice to his face, but cursing him out for a drunk while he was in the toilet. But we got the 1000 brown M&Ms and Ozzie went onstage and put on a great show.
Couple of pints for a fun story.
Not bad!
If you managed to find someone who hadn’t shifted Sinead I’d be even more impressed.
