“I said, ‘When you are older, I’ll send you all your pictures.’”
Speaking to the Mirror ahead of their gig at Anfield on Wednesday, David added: “At the time, we were cool – although you look back now and go, I don’t know.”

At the high-octane show in Liverpool’s legendary stadium, fans were treated to classic hits including Bad Medicine and Lay Your Hands.
The day before, Jon paid a visit to Sir Paul McCartney’s childhood home, on the Beatle’s 77th birthday. During the show, Jon told the crowd: “It’s been a long time coming back to Liverpool.
“Last time was for the Royal Variety Performance. Yesterday was another royal birthday – Sir Paul McCartney’s.”
The band play Wembley Stadium tomorrow night and Coventry’s Ricoh Arena next week.
