The Angle Is Paul Wellings

Two heads are better than one so now we have a new angle.

StreetSounds are mentioning Punk Rock Stories And Tabloid Tales in the next issue.

This time a number of funny stories and a deserved hatchet job on Anti Social Workers singer Paul Wellings.

Not only the tightest bloke I ever met but also the biggest liar I`ve ever encountered.

Readers of the magazine can read how Gal Bushell, Si Spanner and myself conned the `fake Cockney` into believing a porn video was a copy of Scum.

Other classic clips from the book reveal how Wellings was on the phone begging for pornographic pictures of my ex-wife.

I slaughter the two-faced traitor in the book and will crucify him in the magazine.

A great Tim Wells story doesn`t feature in the book but will be revealed in StreetSounds.

Publicity - Another Day Another Hit (Another Angle)

Another day another hit but sadly for some (including me) I have got to find a new angle to hang my story on.

I have `done to death` my heart operation, managing The Stone Roses and meeting David Bowie so the "Cockney Dylan" has got to draw people in with other stories.

Michael Jackson, Ozzy Osbourne, George Michael, Dale Winton and Eastender stars will be fine for some of my tabloid tales.

Johnny Rotten, The Jam, and Sir Bob Geldof will provide the Punk Rock stories ... but the truth is I need some `sex` to go with the "drugs and rock & roll" .

But will my revelations about one-night-stands and living with older women in Knightsbridge be enough?

I know I promised ... but I do have a book to sell ... plus I never got as much as a "Hello" or `smiley face`.

So when the oxygen of publicity provided by "Tabloid Tales" and "Punk Rock Stories" is exhausted I`ll have to find another angle.

That will mean talking about talk my private life, movie career and 15 years of wedded bliss.

The Punk Poet tells all about life as a single parent, making movies like `Saturday Night Specials` and taking on and beating the system.

As they say in Showbiz "There is no such thing as bad publicity".
