What an impact he had, and its a national disgrace the way faceless beauracrats in the NHS play god with peoples lives via the postcode lottery |
I loved the clip of Paul Ryder saying that when Tony was wooing them he said "I can't promise you loads of money, but I guarentee you will see the world". Paul Ryder was like "yeah ok that sounds great!"
Tony Wilson even managed to make becoming a rock star sound like joing the army!!
My other favourite bit was Peter Hook calling Wilson for his pomposity. . . oh how I loved the irony of that one!!!!!!!!
Yes I too thought that it was rather emasculated (speaking of pomposity!) at half an hour and poor reward for a lifes service, but Wilson would have understood only too well the difficulty of the programming schedule!!
