Ginger Wildheart Recalls Media Battle

(Classic Rock) Ginger Wildheart has opened up on his tense relationship with the music press. The Wildhearts frontman chatted with fans at the TeamRock Zone at Download festival today ahead of the band's appearance on the Maverick Stage at 6.25pm.

And he recalled smashing up the offices of one British music magazine in protest at a story he didn't agree with. Ginger says: "It was a slow day. We ran out of drugs. No, someone said something...this was before the internet when rumours happened all the time.

"It was a week until they published an apology, they couldn't retract it immediately like it is with Gene Simmons now. We weren't gonna wait two weeks for the c--- to apologies.

"We got more press out of smashing his gear up than any f***ing record we ever released." Read more here.
