Richard Youngs
171 Used Train Tickets
The Old Angel, Nottingham, 1990. It was the A-Band's third live show and we were calling ourselves Advent for the evening in honour of a local record shop who -- judging by their filing system -- thought they were stocking an album entitled 'Richard Youngs' by Advent rather than Advent by Richard Youngs. For reasons that escape me now, I'd hoarded 171 used train tickets. It felt like a cool idea to read them out. So I did. Not in the privacy of my own home, but to an audience. They seemed to enjoy it. As soon as I'd finished, the A-Band struck up and a good time was had by all." -- Richard Youngs.
