James falling over on-stage
I always wondered if James had fallen over on-stage whilst doing his usual hyper-kinetics, particularly in his younger years, but I never thought I'd be lucky enough to find a video of it actually happening.

For the impatient among you, if you skip to 1.20 you can see the said incident. He does look embarrassed. x

That's hilarious lol, if anything it made his voice even more fantastic though when he went back to the mic.

Yeah doesn't he just, the fall doesn't seem to cheer him up much either!! Not even a bit of slapstick humour can dent that existentialist dread!

You do have strange wonderings!

Anyway, too funny! Poor JDB! And what is Nicky doing, trying to *talk* to someone in the audience?!

Richey looks spooked

He still does that. and the wave point thumbs up maneouvre. Its near impossible to work out what he's saying though and sometimes its just odd like once in the middle or Autumnsong he came to the front and told us he'd forgotten to tipex his jumper.

Don't you hate it when you think you're making progress then they announce a new tour/album and you find yourself all excited and typing Nicky fucking Wire anecedotes on a forum at half eight at night. Its beyond tragic.

The first step is admitting to the problem...

As to the tipex story - Nicky Wire is possibly the planet's weirdest person, in the planet's weirdest band.

I have the whole set on video going mouldy in a box in the garage. There are lots of spooky shots where the guy filming zooms in on Richey's face and Richey stares right into the camera. James was in a stroppy mood that day.

Poor James but also very funny! And thanks for the video, definitely something to drool over, for people partial to blondeness

I was certain James would topple over at his solo gig in Stoke but somehow he managed to stay on his feet.
