i certainly do hope not getting meself into some kind of copyright infringement here, but for those not familiar with it - this is the story andy sylvester told to martin celmins:
"i had a tape once of mac, recorded live at a club near the oval cricket ground. christine was in the wings at the side of the stage watching the show. (...) peter introduced the band individually. when it came to john, pete mentioned how his bass player was a really shy person (...). pete then said something like 'you know it took john six months before he could even summon up the gall to hold christine perfect's hand.' then there was a big silence before peter said '... let alone f*** the arse off her!' john was really annoyed by this. he went up to the microphone and shouted 'you f***in' jew!' he managed to control himself but it was close."
well, . . . !
