is a former pop star!
His name is Mark Shaw and he used to be in a band called "Then Jerico" in the 1980s.
I knew of him before he moved next door. He has lived in Tooting for a few years now and I may have mentioned him on here before. But he just bought the place next door to me!
Hes a really nice guy, Ive had him round for a drink and he is your typicall pop star sort. Name droping and full of stories of showbiz excess. He has a walking stick now, said he had an accident whilst "on stage" and broke his ankles.
Anyone heard of them?
Been listening to a few of their songs, very 80s but not too bad!
My favs are
Big Area - quite famous Im told
The Motive - very catchy! |

sounds like this d00d has switched careers...
"adult film awards"
where i come from, that does not simply mean awards for adults who work in film; rather this connotes these awards are for a particular type of film industry...
are you single..? if you play your cards right, you could find yourself amongst a very lively crowd...
godspeed. |

Jesus, you lucky bastard! Let me know if this one shows for one of the parties. You just might have talked yourself into a new roommate and yes I insist on spooning.

Are you sure it's not just Starbuck pretending to be Mark Shaw?...We know he impersonates lame ass 60s musicians...impersonating a lame ass 80s musician is no big leap |
