Born on the South Island of Japan, son of a University professor whose papers
on cuboids were widely disredited by the scientific community. Dejected and
frustrated Yonomitsu Snr. changed his name to Devon and became a truck driver.
Yonomitsu grew up on the road, and as a child became fascinated by robots. Being
highly gifted and with little to do between deliveries he constructed a bulletproof
computerised car which could talk. He kept it in the back of his Dad's waggon
and used it to fight crime. Like most teenagers though, he became much more
interested in girls and hard drugs than he was in crime fighting. One day at
a motorway service station he met an old traveller known as the Guru Josh who
told him all about the acid house scene in Manchester. He worked in a piano
bar for a year playing Hey Jude to drunken businessmen in order to save
for a plane ticket. Unfortuately, he arrived 7 years too late; the Hacienda
had shut down and everyone was into Oasis.
Born above Stanley Racing in Blackrod, a run down estate on a hill near Bolton.
Son of a crown green bowling champion, also famous as a Freddy Starr impersonator
and a clog wearer. Flecher's father had big plans to raise a family of bowling
superstars, but Fletchers poor coordination and ludicrous purple Parka anorrak
meant he was openly mocked on the bowling green. Like many other childeren of
celebrities Fletcher became disaffected, seeking solace in doom metal and liquid
thinners. He found it difficult to make friends at school and the back of his
favourite purple Parka was often spat on. His mind weakened by thinners he became
a fanatic of TV's Lovejoy, who was an inportant role model. He sold all
his Candlemass albums and set about making himself look like a permed antique
selling crime fighter. He walked into Bang Bang and spent twenty pounds, a fortune
in 1985, on a pair of checkered jeans and Hi-Tech Strada II trainers. His life
was transformed and quickly became the most popular boy in his school. These
were exciting times in Blackrod, bands like Brother Beyond and Bros
were pioneering a new far out form of music. Fletcher has since spent his life
partying hard with beautiful girls and powerful men.
