QUOTES:

Vim: Den, Den, That amp is pathetic. You couldn't amplify a fart through that! 

Den: Yeah well, Gail's kid's gerbils been using it as a toilet for the last 3 years. 

Den: [outside the recording studio toilet] Ohhhh, This is really great. Just imagine, I could've just dumped in the same bog as Eric Clapton, Mick Jagger, or Lemmy or Ozzie Osborne. Who has been here? 

Documentary Maker: [Murmer murmer] 

Den: BANANARAMA!
