Frank Sidebottom, the Timperley enigma has always been a mystery to me!
I am aware of him, in fact his big head is very familiar, but I had no idea until today how famous he is and how well connected this Timperley resident is.
Having Stumbled upon Frank's MySpace Page whilst browsing Altrincham related sites, I was intrigued to find out how popular he is, his MySpace friends include Ramones, Fall Out Boy, Dannii Minogue and Badly Drawn Boy. In Frank's latest blog he talks about Damon Gough (Badly Drawn Boy) joining him on stage in New York! New York! (So good they named it twice!)
Now maybe Frank was just before my time, or I have just never taken notice but his Biography is pretty impressive and he has his own TV show on the M Channel, and all masterminded from Frank HQ in Timperley!
So, we all know that plenty of soap stars and footballers live in Altrincham and surrounding areas, but "Is Frank Sidebottom Timperley's most famous resident?"
Please feel free to comment and let me know if you think so, or if you know of someone more famous!
