| 675177 | 2008-06-04 23:14:00 | Damn, wish I'd seen $400 bucks together at one time. Although there was the time I got to stick $1000 bucks in my mouth for a cover shoot. They took it all back though. We wiped the saliva off and gave it back to the bank. | Biggles (121) | ||

| 675179 | 2008-06-05 04:56:00 | What issue was that? :lol: Jez, can't remember. Early 90s. We did the photo shoot on the very day that the changed the old $100 bills for the new look ones. We'd asked the bank to save us $1000 worth, so we could do the shoot but when we got there they'd sent them all in for destruction. We had to trawl around a few branches trying to rustle up the cash. But at least I know what $1000 tastes like. |

Besides, it sure beat the time I had plasticine slapped on my head to disguise me as Star Trek's Mr Worf at what must count as the most ill-advised, ill-conceived and poorly executed PCW Awards ceremony ever. I couldn't look at claymation animation for years afterwards without breaking out in a cold sweat. |
