Maggie/915 Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 The Tyneside cinema hosted a film and then questions with the man himself.The great thing is it was here in Newcastle and networked live to other venues.If you have never heard of him.I recommend 'I Wanna be Yours' for starters.Then Chicken Town and Beasley Street.They even talk of him being a National Treasure.The Article Monkeys are fans!

Maggie/915 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Look out for an advert for McCains chips.Mostly it seems an ad at the cinema.Very good with the man himself.The Article Monkeys use his lyrics on their latest cd.The film they showed at the Tyneside was called :- 'Evidently John Cooper Clarke'We think it has been on the tele, maybe worth a look on U tube etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie/915 Posted October 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 I Wanna be Yours, appeared on the GCSE syllabus around 2000.Hence a whole host of new followers.One girl in front of us said that was the best of nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
