“What did you say to him, Charlie? Do you know who that is?
Good job he is retired or you might be in trouble.
“Why, because of that old geezer?” exclaimer Charlie, laughing.
The reply stunned him.
“Old geezer, OLD GEEZER, that man is a LIVING LEGEND, do you know what he has done in this business?
Not only did he teach my ole man, who taught ME, he saved him from a beating when he was with Stiff Little Fingers.
The bands he has worked for, the gigs he has done, would fill a dozen books, never mind one.
Stories I have heard from my dad, well, just be thankful he was in a good mood.”
“He looked a bit miserable to me,” said Charlie, feeling put down.
“THAT’S his happy face, you don’t EVER want to see his angry face”
