Athlete and Emily - Steve and Tim arrowed

Pop stars do not obey the same moral code as other people. They behave in a way which would be totally unacceptable in polite society - such as calling an entire room full of people in Hammersmith "London", or demanding that all of the lights in a room are focused on them, leaving everyone else in total darkness. So when we heard about the indie band Athlete's pledge to become better, more moral people in 2008, we had to find out just exactly what this may mean.

So, off Emily went to meet two of the band, clutching a sheaf of moral dilemmas and a heart full of pure goodness.

Athlete - Tim and Steve arrowedWhat I Expected: Well, you would think a ´óÏó´«Ã½ reporter, setting a quiz to a prominent band, would've come up with a more grammatically correct word for a winning score than 'Goodest', wouldn't you? Well, I certainly would...
What I Did Not Expect: The Harsh Saga Of Little Al..."You can't put a value on the money they give you"...Athlete Win Gold Medal - For FRAUD..."I can actually make a rose out of a square of papar"...Why it's OK to have a bonfire if it's in Wales...
