The Wonder Stuff. Miles Hunt. De Montfort Uni circa 1991/2.. seen and revered. I still have the pink ticket and a huge album sleeve poster somewhere at home in my Uni box of memories...
I had spent the sixth form 'A Wish Away'ing and being 'Unbearable' in the computer room ( I say computer room - it was an elaborate cupboard with very early pc's in it). My friend, Michelle and I would be listening on our walkmans - cassette walkmans. Start the tape at the same time and sing along...

Sleep Alone. Inertia.Circlesquare. CD boxset. Leicester.
And so to University and Bina Bagga. We rocked along to these tunes. We felt then as if we didn't fit. Funny as I bounced around the room yesterday I still feel like a 'Circlesquare' and yeah I do choose to 'sleep alone'... don't make me 'Dizzy' though... just 'Caught in my Shadow'... right off to dig some tapes out and re-issue my Sony cassette walkman (with radio tuner no less)...
