Full article:

Bob Geldof : I was eight years old, and I had my head stuck through the fire exit of the Adelphi Theatre in Dublin. Mick and Keith were balancing on the edge of the stage, pushing each other like kids, while Andrew Loog Oldham was in a back seat with his feet up, telling them to get on with a sound-check. And Mick turned around and shouted 'Fuck off' to him. It was thrilling. I took home a cup and saucer Mick had drunk tea out of - and I've kept it to this day.
