John 00 Fleming chats to I Like Music


ILM: If you weren't a musician, what would your second career choice have been/what would you be doing if you weren't a musician?

JOHN: Designing cars. I adore cars, and still do today. I'm mad on cars. It's my second passion. Everything was going in that direction to become a car designer. My father was a design engineer in the marine industry. I went to college and learned all the technical side of cars so it was all creeping in that direction, but the music came to a point where I had to decide which one to pursue. So I did the sensible thing, and thought well, 'I've got the car thing to fall back on, because I've got my qualification, just in case.' I did all the horrible car jobs that you have to do to learn how the cars work; you've got to start from the bottom, that's the only way you can learn. But I got to the stage where Ford were interested in taking me on. IT was a big decision at that point. I would have liked designing cars, but the music side I enjoyed better, but it was a tough call at that point because I had Ford offering me a good job and a company car and all stuff but I said no to them.
