Description & Overview
Tom ‘TINY’ Wilson Born in Salford in 58. One of 11 9 survived the poverty cull. In his early school days he was bullied relentlessly till he got to Secondary where he became a notorious & disruptive ‘pain in the arse’ for teachers. Constantly fighting, swearing, smoking & causing trouble most of the time whilst involved in truancy, vandalism and petty crime. Early futile jobs led to extreme frustration & increasing dependence on drink & drugs and further forays into serious criminal behaviour. His drinking, self destructive attitude and immature belligerence raised his marriage to the ground and his now added drug indulgences soon took him into jail. Then a road accident left him with a serious disability after being run over Christmas day! Tom then formed a band, (The Parody) which absconded to London when Manchester was an apathetic ghost town. London eventually provided him with a harrowing rock bottom after the demise of the band, he was at the ‘jumping off place’.
