PETE BRIQUETTE (bass)
Pete’s my great mate. We lived our entire adult life side by side. I’ve been with him in seats, in beds, in buses, whatever for 27, 28 years. We don’t meet to go for pints, but we call each other whenever the need arises or when either one of is in a bit of trouble. He’s doing his own productions and he mastered The Best Of The Boomtown Rats.

SIMON CROWE (drums)
Simon was such a great drummer, but I don’t talk to him now because he did something despicable when I was at the lowest point of my life, lower than most people would want to go. He rang the News Of The World and said nasty things about me. That’s unforgivable for six boys who went off on a mad adventure. I won’t speak to him ever again.

GARY ROBERTS (guitar)
Gary came to a couple of my solo gigs recently.

GERRY COTT (guitar)
Gerry wrote to me about a month ago. He went to one of my gigs in Guildford, although he didn’t come backstage.
