1. Questions for Music Magazine
o When and how did you become interested in music?
When I was a young boy, my dad had lots of records by
„The Kinks‟ and I too like the music. When I was
thirteen I asked my parents for a guitar and I
practised whenever I could as I wanted to be in the
band like „The Kinks‟
o What else do you do besides play music?
I listen to lots of music; I went to concerts whenever I
could. But my real love was Manchester City, I
followed them whenever I could and I loved being part
of a gang. The atmosphere, the buzz from the football,
fashion and the cheeky beers whenever I could which
was great especially as I was only 16!
o What is the best song you have produced from your
new album and why did you write or decide to play
this song , “ …”
The first one on the album is the best; „Rock n Roll star‟
is all about me as a young boy who wanted to be a top

is a fantastic tune!

It‟s about me… that‟s why it‟s special!!

a kid.
