He was Kloot

I think I'd like to meet John Bramwell - lead singer with (the defunct) I Am Kloot. I very rarely say that about musicians. But there's something about his songs, and his drinking capacity, (and his teeth, come to think of it) that elevate him into the category If I saw him in a bar and he looked like he was stopping for another I'd offer to buy him a drink and tell him his songs are like pearls; unlike his teeth. He would then either say 'Stop bothering me, son,' in which case I'd drop it into reverse and go and drink in the pub next door. Or, if he acquiessed, I'd say 'Can you show me how to write songs that make people stop what they're doing and then pretend they've got something in their eye?' If the stars aligned I really hope it would be the latter.
