Peel mentions LL Cool J has fired the man who was employed on stage to show the audience the rapper's private parts, according to a paragraph in Echos, that he read.
Peel reads out a message from the Sugarcubes looking for a temporary keyboardist, and mentions that the guys in the band were OK, but Bjork was a ratbag.
Peel mentions the Williams are named after Kenneth Williams and not his son, William Ravenscroft.
