death - I just wanted to point out how silly this post looked:

"there's absolutely no question that he most definitely IS way, way up his own arse and ego infested"

combined with this shortly after:

"I don't know the guy, met him and he seemed fine"

How on earth can you say that there is absolutely no question about his egomania when in your only encounter with him he seemed fine! Just because some people you know told you so... maybe you should trust your own judgement in the future. I don't know Ade very well, but in all my dealings with him he has been sound as ****, he is a very decent guy, and I have certainly not witnessed any of this mega ego you are on about - he has come and played in absolute shithole clubs for us, and never complained about the crappy equipment or whatever, and has always been buzzing with the crowd.

Fair enough if you don't like him, but to make cutting personal attacks based on the opinions of some random unnamed "others" - I think thats a bit out of order.
