Steve Binnie was born, through no fault of his own, in the period when Amazing Grace by the Pipes & Drums and Military Band of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards was number 1, a trauma from which he has never quite recovered. Having comprehensively failed to become a rich and successful rock star, Steve was bitten by the Internet bug in the late 1990s and, after a course of painful injections, began writing for h2g2.com. Between 1999 and 2006 he wrote twenty-five articles for h2g2, mainly on ’80s music and comedy, under the name Dr E Vibenstein. Steve is married with a kid (“when you could be having fun with me,” laments Terry Hall), lives in East Lothian, and still hates Amazing Grace by the Pipes & Drums and Military Band of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards.
