Sean refuses to eat with a spoon as it is not a manly enough utensil.

Sean proposed the line 'I LOLed when Lennon got shot' but was vetoed as LOL had not yet come into use. The band now regret that desicion.

Sean is using the Haitian from Heroes to systematically wipe Lifeblood from the memory of everybody in the world.

This isn't because it's shit and he wants to pretend the album never happened; it's part of his secret plan to pretend the band split up after Lipstick Traces, because every other fucker of a nineties band who've reformed lately seems to get their arse kissed by the press and record buying publically just because they sat at home watch Jeremy Kyle and doing bugger all for a few years. Bastards.

Teatime is a constant headache for Hall or Nothing as James refuses to eat near Nicky as he can smell his seafood lunch and vice versa as Nicky refuses to eat nearer to James as he can smell his custard pudding. Sean makes do with chips, potatoes and peas but if they are touching on the plate...

Sean also insists on sitting in a high chair that puts him at least a foot above Nicky, this does not help his vertigo and so dinner time is often a messy diaster.

this whole King Tuts gig was the brainchild of Sean. he's finally used up all that cash he got given that Richey withdrew before he disappeared and thus needed to create an event which could give a boost to his fledgling ticket touting business. well, his annual royalties cheque for "comet sound on If You Tolerate This" only goes so far, kids.

James showed Martyn Williams how to do the perfect drop-kick at that Testimonial dinner that was held last night. Twickenham Stadium is seeking damages for the hole in the ceiling of the lounge area.

The title Journal for Plague Lovers is misspelt. It should be PLAQUE lovers, as it's a concept album about seven days in the life of a nihilistic dental hygenist.

Sean insisted on using real human blood for the Lifeblood cover

Sean insisted on posing for the Lifeblood cover, the happy compromise being that they let him use his own blood (which he has gallons of frozen for reasons no one must know) on a female model.

The Manics were the original inspiration for Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman from South Park.

No prizes for guessing which Manic is Cartman.

'Find faith in your security' was originally written as a jingle for their security company,
