The Peel sessions are over

One of the great arbiters of pop music has gone. John Peel, dj has died. When I was a lad and a bit of a shoegazer and desperately wanted to make important i.e. indie music my dream was to be in a band that was invited to make a Peel Session. Never even got close, though my old friend Madeline and I did perform our two greatest hits, there's something gothic about you and mr hit and misses at her 21st, me on guitar and her on ktichen percussion, starting off I might add the trend for female drummers that rocked the indie world and has resurfaced with the white stripes. John you would have been proud.
