SCRAPBOOK
“The scrapbook is just a collection of ideas for songs, some good ideas and some shit, but I can always find a good line in there somewhere to make a starting point on a new song. There’s also cuttings from the local East London Advertiser and some photos.”

HARMONICA
“The harmonica came from a boot sale in France. It’s huge because it has the key of C on one side and the key of G on the other. It’s old and it smells but it looks great and makes this weird chorusey sound that gets right on my girlfriend’s nerves.”

SUNGLASSES
“These are vintage Ray-Bans.” |

"BAD BOY" BY THE JIVE BOMBERS
“This is my favourite doo-wop song, I love the lines in it like: 'I'm just a bad boy, all dressed up in fancy clothes and life is just a bowl of cherries.' The lead vocal is magical and when I'm drunk I like to wail it at the top of my voice.”

BOOTS
“I had those boots made for me when I came into a few hundred quid when my great gran died. I decided to blow it on one thing rather than piss it away on beer, and I always wanted to get a pair of shoes made for me.They were made by a French girl called Natacha who works out of a rubber sex clothing workshop on the Holloway Road called House of Harlot.”

BROKEN FAN
“This is an old fan that I found in a junk shop. It used to have two more fans on it but it was broken somehow. You operate it by pressing this button the side. I like the fact it was manually operated.” |
