Billy Idol was probably the first artist that I really dug- from there it was simply a mosh skip and a jump to Guns and Roses. After that, it was Metallica, then Black Sabbath and finally Pink Floyd. There were a whole bunch of other lesser bands, but those were the real big ones for me.

Obviously, Billy did look like an utter prick, but you tend not to notice that when you've got the early-teens hero worship thing going.

I even remember buying the same hair gel as him.

Gah.

Cheers,

Mark
