A few days ago we were watching a quiz programme and Hank Marvin's real name was mentioned. I can't remember what it was but I remarked to DH that most pop star's real names were usually changed to something well 'ard like Billy Fury and Rory Storm.
DH was a bit quiet for a moment then muttered, 'I've never told you what mine was have I?'
I knew he sang with a couple of mates who played guitar when he was at Agricultural College. Probably Elvis and Cliff stuff which is his karaoke speciality but I didn't realise he had a 'stage name' [impressed emoticon]
After a lot of threatening cajoling I managed to get it out of him.......Ricky Livid!!!!
Whoever chose it must have been looking into a crystal ball.
I've got another 'keen'... Ouch!
