It's Monday afternoon, friends. Get out your glow sticks!
BBC 1 DJ Mary Anne Hobbs, who spun at The Green Elephant Friday night, has led the life you wish you had the balls to live: she ran off to London with a hard rock band as a teen; at 21, inspired by Metallica, she moved across the Atlantic to Hollywood to be a rock journalist.
