Excerpts from a book… #5
Part 1:
1/2 Excerpts from a book: Once @TheWho played Hammersmith Odeon, I was 15, my brother Paul, 19. We turned up at the backstage door and said we were Pete Townshend’s brothers, could we come in. The doorman yelled, “Yeah, and I’m the Queen’s sister”! And slammed the door.

Part 2:
2/2 Excerpts from a book: Same venue a few days later (Dec 75) at a Queen gig, I went to the backstage door and said I was Freddie Mercury’s brother. No joke, they believed me, let me in and escorted me to the bands dressing room where I met the band &hung for a while.
