[peel] we miss john peel - mtv2 europe

[colin bray]

I have always felt that dedicated Peel listeners were invariably 'sound' as 
people.

I think they are/were the nicest people out there.

Some people may dislike Peel devotees in the same way they disliked Peel - 
mistaking eclecticism for snobbery.

Colin.
