Paul Weller has revealed in an interview with Q magazine that his band The Jam were turned down for an audition on ITV talent show Opportunity Knocks.
Weller says that a girlfriend of the guitarist had suggested that the band apply to audition for the long running show presented by the smarmy Hughie Green.
The band were invited to audition for the show, but were turned down.
“We played them a few of our own tunes. I can barely remember doing it, but we were so shit. And thank God. I don’t want to think what would have happened if we’d ended up getting on.”
