Virgin Rebirth – Sunday Independent Life (2004)


Gavin Friday writes exclusively for the Sunday Independent’s LIFE supplement about the Virgin Prunes. From September 26, 2004.

“The year was 1972 when I, Fionan Martin Hanvey, first befriended Derek Karl Rowen and Paul David Hewson. We all lived on Cedarwood Road. We loved music, we had a similar surreal sense of humour, we liked painting, we had no time at all for football, we looked and dressed differently, we didn’t want to be cowboys… we wanted to be Indians.”
