Don Was

Had some colleagues round for dinner this evening: Don & Carole, Leigh, and Olivia. Nice relaxing evening. Funny to be working with Don Watson. I knew him in the 80s when he wrote for NME. He also came to a few Wigmore Alternatves (so legendary yet so clandestine that googling will draw a blank). I also vaguely remember attending the book launch of The Quick End which combined short stories by him, Michael Bracewell (also ex-BC) and Mark Edward. He was 10 years at the NME, then I lost track of him, although would see his name at the end of some music articles before... he turned up at the BC. Full circle...
