I've met James Toesland about 4 times - lovely bloke. Had a bit of a giggle with him at the MCN do at skeggy - he came outside to autograph my mates bike for her. It started off with just us 3 girlies chatting with him and larking about - he sat on Chrissy's bike and was fiddling about and pulled her bar-end off. Was really funny watching him sat there with the bar-end in his hand not knowing what to do
.
Also good friends with Andy Smith (originally from the band called Portishead). Also Nick Halkes - a producer that signed up the Prodigy. Both these guys used to spend most of their weekends with our group of mates, we were always hanging out in each others houses. Infact Andy used to have a set of decks and did the local school discos. At the time I knew a guy that used to DJ at the Tropic club in Bristol so I introduced Andy to him and got him a couple of slots at the club - so I like to think that I helped him on his way to stardom
Last year Andy gave me one of his CDs (Trojan Document), and I was mentioned on the cover as part of his inspiration for getting into reggae music. How cool is that - being mentioned on the CD cover
