“Every now and then comes along a person whose style informs your own style and for me, Rowland was that person. The first time I saw him play, it was clear he was a phenomenal talent. We went our separate ways, but I have always loved Rowland — his talent, his great humour and his generous heart. He was a good friend and it was a privilege to have worked with him and to have been in his sphere of influence. I will miss him very much.”

— Nick’s eulogy for Rowland’s funeral

"I worked for a day in a factory, but I quit. I got a job washing dishes, and I worked for a whole week. I got paid, and as I was walking home, I got mugged. I decided that I just wasn’t meant to have a job, and I never went back."

Look! Another picture of Simon Bonney I didn’t see until just now! (Also one of Rowland I hadn’t, obviously…) He looks so young there, haha.

Robert: “And you’d been drinking.”

Rowland: “Oh that goes without saying; you didn’t just take Serapax. So we bated this guy until he drove us to this party, and on the way, Nick climbed out onto the roof. And I said to the dentist (the driver) “Why don’t you slam on the breaks really quickly?” And he did.

“Nick flew off the roof of the car, slid along his back, skidded along this sort of cobbled road, which took big chunks of skin off the nodules of his spine. I don’t think he was wearing a shirt at the time, or if he was, he wasn’t afterwards. And he’s never forgiven me. Quite frankly, I didn’t imagine anyone would be so stupid as to follow my orders. That could have been the end and of it all, there and then.

"
