He's clutching a photograph of a Berlin party girl.
This week I speak to fantasic Richie tips, he explains his love for the band by telling me how he first heard an accoutic version of Easter on the Rock Steady Show back in the early 90s. He talks about how when he first heard Brave he wasnt overally impressed but fast forward a few years and the lyrics made more sense. He discusses how the lyrics to Berlin hit home as he was struggling with German GCSE. We also discuss how he did this years swap the band at PZ, how the nerves got the better of him but absolutley knocked it out of the park, the surreal moment of sitting the green room and having a beer and people coming in and offering him support. He also name drops a pretty big celebrity he has a claim of fame to.
