There was no stereo in the car so I had a huge portable beatbox in the passenger seat well, that blasted out \u2018Technique\u2019 by New Order \u2013 I know that album by heart but couldn\u2019t tell you what the tracks were called\u2026\u2026.Years later I moved to Leeds and got to know one David Cann, who it turns out, used to be the road manager for \u2018BOB\u2019.
