The current issue of Time out 15th - 21st has the above article in it. Did you know his worst ever hangover was on tour with Sandy denny in New York when the Rhythm section decided to have a drinking contest? he passed out! "sandy could drink us all under the table"
He coached Arnies son at football?
Ice hockey is his most favourite thing in the whole world? LA kings his favourite team and he has a signed hockey stick!
etc etc
Hasn't he lived in LA for the past several years, for the two days a year when he actually is at home? That is a trip that he has become a hockey fan, I will bet someone took him to a game, that is how the bug usually is passed, and it can be a brilliant game, though LA is hardly a traditional hockey hotbed partly because its freaking 80 degrees there most of the time, though I think they sell out most or all of their games, and obviously there are millions of people there who are not from there but might be from Montreal, Detroit or Moscow. Additionally although I know ice hockey is played in Britain, as well as baseball and American football, I suspect the vast majority playing are not native to the UK, as far as I know most of our sports remain something of an obscurity there. I recall when I got to meet him nearly 20 years ago he was much taller and maybe athletic looking than I suspected, I am 6'3 and I recall him to be as tall as me though the meeting was brief and accidental, he was out in the hallway prior to playin at this nice theater out on Navy Pier in Chicago. That is an issue I need to see, interesting premise.
