Ah the things we learn along the way.

So… just to be clear… even though I spent my early life, well my teens let’s say, playing guitar in rock bands, club bands, pub bands, dance bands… and therefore, quite understandably, had interactions with some fairly colourful characters… it wasn’t until I joined the cast of this particular show in 1986, that I learned that a mullet wasn’t necessarily a fish commonly seen and dare I say regularly caught in the waters surrounding my home town!

No, it was the name given to a particular hairstyle. A crazy cut that, for a number of years, seemed to be an actual contractual obligation for any young fella taking up residence in THAT famous street! Now, I’d obviously seen examples of THAT hairstyle before joining the show, perhaps not quite as coiffed, but I knew ‘roadies’ & bikers who were absolute devotees of the ‘doo’…. I just didn’t know it was named after a fish!
