This week I am joined by a hardcore Paul Weller Fan who is so crazy about the live experience that he has created a new initiative called Love Weller Live.
Steve Wheatley's first gig was 24 November 1979 - where The Jam had such a massive positive impact that he was hooked.
Over 150 gigs later - The Jam, The Style Council and Paul Weller Solo - and that never-ending feeling of anticipation for the next one hasn't gone away!
