Tonight on Virgin Radio (24/10/02) Drive time with Pete & Jeff they were interviewing Captain America, another dj on their station, has a regular slot on Sundays (aka Nick Stewart).

They were talking in general about American artists and what he had been up to and who he was listening to, anyway cut to the chase at the end Pete asked Nick if he was going to sign Morrissey his reply, "I would love to." Pete & Jeff kept badgering him and saying go on give him a deal, his final words were "ok I'll see what I can do."

Who is Nick Stewart you ask? Well he's only one door down from being the President of BMG records. His credentials are quite impressive: he gave U2 their first record deal when he was at Island. Back in 2001 at a U2 gig Bono singled him out in the crowed and said, "we owe this man our life."

Fingers crossed everybody

        so, we finally discovered the guy who's responsible for signing the most overrated band in rock history!
        my God! how could he signed a band whose a singer had a mullet (!), wore dreadful hats and cowboys boots? inexcusable!

        but don't worry Nicky, here's your chance to compensate humanity for all your sins… so please, give our Man that bloody contract for God's sake!
