Yes, I continue to try and make the world a better place in my own quiet way. Unfortunately, after the arse fell out of the magazine and music industries there hasn't been so much call for music magazine Editors. Regardless, it's a young person's game. I'd served my time.<br /><br />Anyway, I reply simply with a pedantic correction. I would have thought it was essential to refer to me as the Editor who turned NME into 'an indie Smash Hits' (something I always took as a compliment) but regardless, it's important to note that the very fabulous double Andrew WK cover wasn't me. It was Ben Knowles. (He now runs comms for a charity for children in orphanages.)
