aston villa colours and RIO

Ask Katy

Excellent performance at the M.E.N Manchester glad to see the lads together again been a while since we saw them last, took our daughter of seven she couldn`t wait for the wild boys and is there something i should know. First time was at villa park. Question for nick and john. When we went to villa park we bought two matching scarves of dd rio which my daughter wore at M.E.N just wondering if the colours of aston villa had anything to do with the sleeve of the rio album and single? thanks dave in bolton p.s let`s have more concerts

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHATSOEVER. WHILE ANDY, ROGER, SIMON AND JOHN ARE FOOTBALL SUPPORTERS, NICK IS PROUD TO SAY (!) THAT HE IS NOT, SO THE RIO ALBUM COVER COLOURS WERE TAKEN FROM THE ORIGINAL PAITING BY PATRICK NAGEL (WHO INCIDENTALLY WAS FROM CALIFORNIA), AND HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH FOOTIE!
