"I've never had any of that before. This creole food you mention. As for me I like a lot of food like roast dinners and the like. Beef, chicken, potatoes, veg and lots of gravy. Sort of traditional English food. When we toured Japan Ziggy offered both me and Gilly sushi. Fish things. I liked it, sort of salty. But Gilly was sick."
It seemed that was more down to the fact that the drummer was being stupid at the time jamming loads of octopus legs into his mouth at one time. No wonder he threw up. Weird was more sensible, eating slowly and allowing his tongue to absorb the new tastes as well as his stomach.
"Do coloured people get persecuted in your country then?"
Weird knew that blacks, as they were called in Britain, were often treated as second class citizens a lot of the times. It had gotten better since the Sixties but the prejudices were still there. The bassist had no issue with anyone of colour or not, since they had Ziggy and he was almost like a new species in itself. Race, colour---it didn't matter when you wanted to perform to everyone.
