Weller was an abrasive fecker when he was on the gear. Back in the 90s he crashed into me at a Dr John gig at Dingwalls without apologising. I thought about having words but he was obviously a bit smashed so let it slide. At the after show party at HQ I'd gone to the loo for a slash and Weller was in there with Noel Gallagher and a couple of other Britpop tossers shoving gak up their hooters. Much merriment was being had but as we're leaving the lav Weller spots Martin Carr of the Boo Radleys, who he'd earlier shared a stage with as a guest of Dr John, tears after him and starts trying to knock seven bells out of him for apparently hitting a couple of bum notes on stage. It took three or four of us to drag him off. It left me thinking he was a bit of an arsehole.
