Metamatics

about

there are at least two bands with the name metamatics. 1) Lee Norris was born Le Nonriz in Strasbourg on the French-German border in 1963. In 1970 while on a school field trip to the Arndale Centre in Manchester, England he became distracted whilst wetting himself and got seperated from the group and subsequently lost. Before long he had adopted a slouch typical of the area and had started speaking french and german, his native tongues, with a decidedly Mancunian accent. "Ja mein cheri, ich liebe le chips and gravy." After mastering English eventually he gained full British Citizenship in 1975, he celebrated by moving to North Wales where under indecipherable Welsh law it's technically illegal to be English. The young Lee desperately wanted to continue his French-German hobby of singing in a band, in an attempt to remain unidentified as an English boy he decided to switch to playing the synthesizer, he bought a red Roland SH-101 from a confiscated goods auction in Bala and the rest.. is history. Lee has his own radio talkshow on Radio Exeter, his theme tune which is always played in it's entirety is 'That Sunday, that summer' by Nat King Cole, one of Lee's favourite ever songs. Topics on the show vary from week to week but usually relate in some way to Gary Numan, who is usually the guest. Lee drives a 2004 BMW 745i, in his efforts to throw off stalkers or the 'greys' he never drives home the same way twice, the fields surrounding his secluded Devon house are scarred and rut
