A COMPLiCATED BAY CITY ROLLER一 LES MCKEOWN

Extract of“Sex,drugs and thQ rocttng Rdにr by cathettne DeveneyPやScodand on Sunday,sun 28 Sep 2005★☆

A comp‖cated Bay City Ro‖eL Whata concept,にwOuld be far tO say thatthe Bay City Rollers never seemed likethe types who woutt be submiting a group membe応附p for Mensa.EHc and Woody boked Hke a coude oftartan―ciad toilet brushes with guitars There was Derek Dim on drums,and his older brother Alan.As anensemble,they were possibly the most vacant‐looking boy band in pop history. And then there was McKeown.

pop stars who drank only mHk.Sensible giHstook onelook and knew McKeown was tttuble.Luckily for him,there were plenty Ofun‐sensible gヤis w‖‖ng to ind outjust how much trouble.

"Maybe that's me being ove卜the‐top intQrested in women.l have been iike that a‖my life・Unjll got marHed,of

course.Ⅲ He winks.ⅢAnd then it a‖stopped!"

MarHage and Family….McKeown went on to marry Peko,his Japanese wife,with whom he has a teenage son,He acknowiedges that

he's notthe rnost trusted of men.Ⅲl've done certain things and made it up and swvorn l'1l never do it again,"Heloves his wife,She's his best friend.

He hasnl been a big cheatel rea‖y.He has,uSt dOne some silly things.And his marHage gave him his sonⅢ ⅢAbeaudfui boypⅢ he says ttmost wにt仙|け」don'ttttnkt was suppOsed to be a dad,Ⅲ he says.Ⅲl dont tttnk rvebeen a great dadt"

The trouble has been the band's tegacy.The biterness.it stopped him being the person he might have been,the

dad he might have been.ⅢA‖ofrny son's life,'t he says,"this crap has been coming in and out ofrny head,in andout ofourtives."

Bay City Ro‖ers…

Atthe age ofi8,he satin Paton's car and signed an agreementthat handed over a‖rights Ofatorney to hismanageL He WaStoo young and gu‖ible to ask questions. That nrst contract,McKeown suspects,m19ht accountfor the missing cash.He used to ask Paton for any money he needed.But someone rnust have got the royalties

The band was hdd ttgether by fear of Paton and hatred of McKeown."You coutt maybe understand t ryOu'd

been through a horrible divorce or something―a‖the devlous machinations,the manipulations that went on'1

Nearthe end,McKeown resorted to puting bugging devicesin their rooms`"ithought,VVowlill be able to hearwhat they're saying about me. And then you heatt and iぜs devastating.You don't wantto keep hearingi youwantto be back where yOu were before you heard.Ⅲ Afterthe bugging devices,he wanted out Everybodythought oniy a rnadman would leave a successfui band.ⅢBut a wee voice inside rne was saying,“F・・キing get outo f t t t s ,比's tt cにk‖screw y o u u p .Ⅲ He w a s t o r n .ⅢWhen i t r i e d t o dにassod a t e m y s e r f r o m t h e m t w a s r e剖けhard.l wascりing and scared to go.Ⅲ
