this bit about who would play him in a film made me properly laugh out loud
they’ve asked if Lennon, my son, would play me in two scenes. One at the [London venue] Water Rats and one at a party at Noel’s. He’s not up for it. I said: “Why aren’t you, you little shit, you said you were up for acting?” So now, the other one, the 15-year-old, he’s going: “I’ll do it, Dad.” They’re having a bit of a fight about who’s going to do it. Then get [Noel’s daughter] Anais as Noel. And who can play Alan McGee? Louis Walsh.
