THE 'BUSBY' PICTURE


Nick 'Morgan' Lewis I really can't recall who that would have been. It sounds like something I may have suggested but Eddie would have relentlessly pursued the idea. You know how he could get, a few insults, likening you to someone not cool etc. I'll say Eddie overall. But it was I that got White Hawk along to London!
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Oh, she told me all about that last week, "local heart-throb' she described you as, I think she had a bit of a thing for you, even though she must have seen this in The Grain.

Julie Howell I have a question about Nick's trousers.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time I'm sure he's gagging to hear it...
Magic Moments At Twilight Time "How did you get an Exocet missile in something so tight?"
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Ooh, actually, I bet FB have that picture down, it has nipples on it, oops! Hey, Zuckerberg, it was 30+ years ago, we're much more politically correct these days. No, honestly...
Nick 'Morgan' Lewis Ha, thanks Julie! I remember that picture and the blackmail spot, I think it offended Eddie! He probably had come around really early for something important, like a Rizla!
Julie Howell Yes, we have a question from a caller, it's 47-year-old Julie from Peterborough. You're through to Nick. What's your question, Julie? Yes, Nick, do you still wear leather trousers?
Magic Moments At Twilight Time I'm sure that will be the question on everyone's lips.
Julie Howell Someone once said 'Nick's stretched the bum on his leather trousers pulling himself up onto walls.'
Magic Moments At Twilight Time And I'm sure he'll tell you whether or not that's true if he ever comes out from behind the sofa.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time That is going to be a hard picture to get out of my head now though...
Magic Moments At Twilight Time He's gone all quiet now, I think you've embarrassed the poor lad, Julie, you know how painfully shy he's always been...

Nick 'Morgan' Lewis No, I don't have any leather trousers anymore, gets a bit too Tom Jones after a certain age. I do have a couple of leather jackets though.
Nick 'Morgan' Lewis Sorry, never saw it come up!
Julie Howell Nick has one of the loveliest faces I've seen on a man. When he smiles the sun comes out.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Hey, well crept!
Julie Howell It's true. We all love Nick.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Never mind, gives folk the chance to make a cuppa. As for the leather jackets, well, growing old disgracefully, I'm sure! So, let's get off trousers for a bit (sorry, Julie) and talk about The Grain years. Well, year, singular, burned short, burned bright. Here you are at The Grain Festival in '87, what are your memories of that day?

Magic Moments At Twilight Time Yeah, know your kinky trousers, Howell! ;)
Magic Moments At Twilight Time Always surrounded by rather fit young ladies, he was. Not sure about the one with the cigarette, is that a bloke?
Nick 'Morgan' Lewis I was squatting at the time and remember that Jamie came around in the morning to get me. It was all rather exciting, no one had done anything like this in Camberley before - for people who don't know Camberley it's a place where you can only exist if you are the same as everyone else and like the same as everyone else. I think in the run up to it there had been some police interest. It was a great day, good turn out and the vibe was cool. I think the sound man fucked up MMATT's sound? That was the only bad bit I can recall.
Magic Moments At Twilight Time I think that complete twat fucked up a lot of bands sound that day, one of the rudest and most unhelpful people I've ever had the misfortune to meet. I don't think I was the only one shouting at him, so did Greed, Martin Crook (Slack Bladder) had a go at him too. Didn't spoil the day though, still think that was an incredible achievement for a bunch of inexperienced amateurs. Sadly, a few more months and it would all be over, the last Grain gig being a MMATT / Slack Bladder double bill in the December, and here's your verdict at it! ;)
