THE K2 INTERVIEW

The "huge great blubbery thing"
is interrogated by Foxy Stoat.

How did you become one of the Lads roadies?

An ad in the job centre:
"Roadie required, must be fat."

How long were you with the Lads?

I did gigs on and off from 1990 to 1994.

How did you get the name K2?

The second largest mountain they could think of!

Did you get paid? Was it a good wage?

For a 19 year old, unemployable fat git it was alright.

   
Did you feature in any videos?
I'm on "Sex, Pies and Videotape" and was asked to do the adverts for "Beer Necessities" but refused as Slimy wasn't going to pay me.
 
Were you mates with the other fat roadies?
We bonded in a "let's all get covered in disgusting body fluids together" kind of way.
If the Lads were to re-form, would you roadie?

If Slimy upped those poverty-line wages.

What have you done since you left?

Opened a "Pies and Bestiality Warehouse" in rural Bastard Lancashire.
Did you ever see any of the Lads or roadies get injured?
I've seen a few pint pots hitting faces, and Eddie Shit getting his head split open in London. Which was nice.
Have you ever been injured during a gig?

I don't think so, but I got pelted with ball bearings by Nazis at one gig. That was a long night.

The Lads described you as a "huge, great blubbery thing" , did you deserve it?

 

Let me think...... Yes!

 
After the way the Lads treated Sandbach,
did they ever do anything to you which was horrible or humiliating?

 

Any number of things. So what?

 
Do you have a favourite Macc Lads song?
Jesus! Yeah! Charlotte always makes me cry.
Ah, those beautiful major to minor chord changes...
