My big sister went out with Doug Somner.

I used to take the same bus home from college as Dougie Hart of J&MC. What a raconteur.

I used to sit in the seat Donald Dewar sat in for history tutorials at Glasgow University.

The Electric Boys put paid to my career as a music 'journalist'. What a shower of wankers. I was right. There is more to life.

My pal in Chicago was one of Al Jourgenson's 1000 Homo DJs.

You're mates with Chris Connelly?

I loved the song 'Murder Inc'. Shame the rest of the album wasn't in the same vein. Regardless, hope he's doing well.

Excuse my ignorance but what in the name of Arthur Daley is a "homo DJ"?

A spinner of wax platters who exclusively appreciates the physical attributes of his/her own gender.

Please, do keep up, Mozza.

A gay person who plays records?

Disappointing I thought it was less obvious, Dave.

Oh, alright then.

1000 Homo DJs was an industrial metal supergroup, the most famous member of which was Al Jourgensen of Ministry, although Wikipedia lists Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails as a sort-of member. Should have remembered that, as the only song by them that I remember is a cover of 'Supernaut' by Black Sabbath, on which Reznor does vocals.

The first answer was more interesting, yes?

Yes. I was hoping it might have been a homoerotic dinner jacket though.

You'll just have to keep looking, I'm afraid.

Al Jourgensen had another band called Revolting Cocks, so he was definitely sending out mixed messages.

I sat next to Stuart Adamson on a flight to New York.

John Greig's grandaughter is in the same class as my son.

Ex Dumbarton & Falkirk defender Martin Melvin married a girl in my class. Bumped into them at the Scotland - Serbia game.

Yes, I want to concentrate on my Club career.

PS - I hope he's not! :(

Ah, you've gone down the McAvennie route. Cheers!

Might want to check your signature, then. Unless he's done one of those pish- tear-stained resignation threads that everyone loves so much?
