It turns out that the people behind the musical CHICAGO liked my recent INTERVIEW with the shows current star, former SPANDAU BALLET frontman TONY HADLEY, so much that they want to offer you free tickets and a very special AUTOGRAPHED Tony Hadley item in a special competition... keep an eye on the website over the next few days for that!

Thank you to everyone who has emailed me PICTURES for consideration for my FORTHCOMING BOOK - I am in equal parts delighted and scared... delighted because of the level of support my book is getting from you all, and scared because some of the pictures are very... um.... eighties! I'd love to see more and as a reminder I'm particularly interested in scans and pictures of badges, merchandise, tickets and things like that! If you have anything that fits the bill then please can you send them to heresmypics@gmail.com which is a special email address I've set up for pictures only please!
