A Lot Of People Felt I Was Getting Work Because I Was Boy George. My Response At The Time Was That There's A Lot Of Djs Making Records, They're Not All Making Good Records, But They Have The Right To Do That.

Certainly For Me, When Punk Exploded In The 1970s, It Was Just Great. We Had These Wonderful Clothes To Wear. We Could Do Great Things With Our Hair. We Had Protest Badges That Read "i Belong To The Blank Generation." It Was Such A Great Time To Be A Kid.

Warren Street Was At The High End Of The New Romantic Scene. They Were Mostly College Art Students And People Who Knew Top Designers.

I Was About 16 When Punk Started To Happen. It Was So Exciting. You Had A Social Depression Going On In The U.k. There Was A Sanitation Strike. London Was Really Grim, Gray. You Had Margaret Thatcher Coming In. It Was A Really Revolutionary Time.

Certain Punk Bands Were Influential Because I Thought, If They Can Do That Then I Can .hanging Around Those Bands Was How I Started My First Band - In Praise Of Lemmings.
