The Animal Kwackers. I was 5 years old and went with my Dad. It had been snowing all day and we had to travel about 30 miles. I'm sure it was all worth it!
What gear do you use?
Vox Amp. Gibson Firebird. Fender Telecaster '72.
Who was your biggest musical influence growing up?
Like so many others - Radiohead. Didn't really care about Creep (Lurgee is the best song on Pablo Honey), but it was obvious from The Bends onwards that they were gonna be something special.
Are you in a band? Have you been in bands?
Yes. The band is called Glasshouse. We've all played in other bands over the years, but have been together for 3 or so years now. We play live in and around Salisbury, Southampton, Bournemouth etc. We play our own material, essentially alternative rock music, with the odd cover thrown in for good measure.
If you could jam with anyone, who would it be?
Ryan Adams - greatest songwriter around at the moment. Dave Grohl - cos' he's Dave Grohl. Paul McCartney - to get a thumbs up!!
What's the biggest audience you ever performed to? What's the smallest?
Approx 2000 at Goldhill Fair in Shaftesbury, Dorset. Not sure how, but the band I was in at the time managed to be one of the headliners for the weekend. I'm pretty sure we played to no one once, but we've certainly played to 1 person at a gig - that person is now our bassist!
You're stuck on a desert island and only get to bring one album with you. What do you pick?
Very difficult. Would probably go for Cold Roses by Ryan Adams & The Cardinals. It's a double album for starters and there isn't a bad song on it.
