h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

A few years ago, I was in Kings Cross Station awaiting my train up to Leeds when I saw a man who I believed to be the lead singer of the Wildhearts. I eyed him suspiciously and vice-versa. I'd never seen him in the flesh before so I thought I'd check my copy of Kerrang! that I had just purchased for some kind of pictorial verification. Lo and behold, I found a picture and it indeed was him. However, by this time he'd legged it.

The real reason for my prevarication and the punchline to the story is that I really didn't want to walk up to a man in Kings Cross Station and ask him, "excuse me, are you Ginger?".

Apologies to the majority of the world unfamiliar with the seedy nature of Kings Cross Station and the cockney-rhyming slang nature of the problem. Apologies to everyone else for the rather weak story.



P.S. The Wildhearts rocked hard. R.I.P.

I'd also like think it's very important that people know that the last minute of Everlone from the "Earth vs." album is just everything that's good about head-down, no-nonsense, mindless hard rock.
