Peter’s Blue Plaque
Brighton’s Singing Barber Peter Joannou who you will remember Rod sang with on The One Show in 2022 put up a blue plaque by the window he sings from
Peter explained..“Yesterday I shakily ( because I am not keen on heights) got up the ladder and fitted the plaque by my window.
I wanted to commemorate the day, time and moment the legend Sir Rod Stewart came to my window.“
In brief : “I was born to sing and give as much as I can from the heart, I wanted to tell everyone around the world and every one passing by, that me and Rod sang together from this window .
It wasn’t English heritage, The BBC ,Brighton council or even Sir Rod that paid to make it and put it up, it was me telling my story because I wanted to and could x”
Wolfie’s Global Domination
Wolfie’s whisky want global domination with the help of musicians across the world.
Brand co-founder Duncan Frew said the drink was ahead of selling 200,000 bottles in its first full year of trading and has featured in venues including The Ritz in London, NOBY Tokyo and Caesars Palace Las Vegas.
But he has aspirations to go a lot further and told The Herald: “Our plan is to be a bit like Nike, with Rod as our Michael Jordan.
“He’s our star musician, and we’re now working with Warner Music, MTV, and Abbey Road. Our plan is to be the true rock ‘n’ roll Scottish whisky, and we want to have local bands or artists in Asia and America.”
