Well the Jeff mentioned in DotU actually existed and was living in Portsmouth
in the 1980's.
Someone at work knew him and mentioned that he used to hang around with the
band when they first started.
I never got to met him but guy from work was ok,and didn't bullshit generally.
I always thought that "john the Bog" "who slept at the wheel" could of been
a sort of tribute to the roadie that died in a crash on way to a gig.

best regards
