How about that!


Bez just namechecked the Boomtown Rats on Celebrity Big Brother, and said they got their name from I' Don't Like Mondays, deciding to call themselves Happy Mondays!


Now I fully expect Johnny Borell of Razorlight to admit the Boomtown Rats were his biggest influence, and even named their album Up All Night as a tribute, as well as adopting Geldof's vocal style and mannerisms!

I always thought it was a riposte to Blue Monday but obviously not. Both doing festival work later this year.
