In 1996, I interviewed a promising director called @edgarwright This was for Neon magazine, for this piece to run alongside my 3* review of his debut film, A Fistful of Fingers. Turns out we’d both worked in the same Somerset supermarket. Nice kid. Whatever happened to him?
20 years ago this week @foofighters graced the cover of @KerrangMagazine's festive issue. Inside the mag, the band slipped on Santa hats and talked all things Christmas. 🖊️ @benmitch101 📸 @RossHalfin fooarchive.com/features/kerra…

Just listened to @TheRewatchables on Goodfellas with @BillSimmons, @SeanFennessey and @ChrisRyan77 Superb. Almost as good as the Cocktail episode. Reminded me of this “homage” that we ran in Neon magazine, September 1997.
Happy birthday, Jon Bon Jovi! Remember that time that we hung out in Osaka? No? How about at the Staples Centre in LA eight years later? I was the only person in the crowd who wasn’t on a hen night. You did a horrible cover of Shout. Good rocking.
Meet the real James Hetfield – the mountain-man of metal whose background helped define the course of Metallica, through bust-ups, tragedy, alcoholism, drug abuse and breakdowns. loudersound.com/features/james…
Happy birthday, Dave Grohl! Here’s a Polaroid - a Grohlaroid, if you will - taken in 2005, when I met Dave at his house in the San Fernando Valley for a Q cover story. I stayed at the Mondrian on Sunset for the best part of a week awaiting such rarefied access. Good times.
Happy 76th birthday to Rod Stewart! Remember that time we hung out at the Beverly Hills Hotel back in 2004? Course you do! I had a tape recorder and some questions about Britt Ekland. You seemed keener to discuss your latest indifferent covers album. It was quite the afternoon.
At Neon magazine, we always hit movie stars with the tough questions... well, question... if that question was, What’s your favourite Chevy Chase movie? Here’s the pick - the Chevy Choice - from @benaffleck @dan_aykroyd John Carpenter (@TheHorrorMaster) and Laurence Fishburne.
