Now firstly I should say that Paul is an absolute legend in Liverpool, plus having met him I can vouch for him being a very genuine and down to earth guy.

Unfortunately the years don't seem to have done him any favours in his DJ'ing or looks dept (although he can still play a blinder of a set on those special nights - his Perfecto Greatest Hits night in Liverpool 2007 was like re-living the Courtyard all over again).

Sander K bumped into him on a flight and put this pic up on Twitter :shock: :

He's gone from 2001 Oakey

I thought LA was full of health freaks turning back the clock eating grass & nip tucking !

He should get his arse back to the UK and re-start a residency in Liverpool ... pronto !

I wasn't twittering with Sander .. my brother brought it to my attention !

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

he looked like the more deranged version of Tenaglia but with hair

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

AAAUGH! Why did I look!!!

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

bloody hell !!!

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

He's starting to look like Ozzy.

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

He could do with ditching the haircut. The Curtains suit him even less than the Mullet

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

I thought LA was meant to give you tan .. he needs a smart haircut, to lose a few lbs and to get rid of the pudgy nose !

Like a mix between Ozzy and M ichael Jackson... rough

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

Very funny ;)

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

Lots of hard work and convenience foods ages a person, especially if they are funky looking already

This is interesting:

DJ TIMES: I have asked this of many other people i've interviewed from England, but what do you see as the reasons why the UK have surpassed America when it comes to dance music -- music that by and large, we created.

OAKENFOLD: The first and most important thing is youth culture. America's youth culture as far as I can see, have grown up on hip hop. And then you have your hispanics that are growing up on something completely different, then you've got another form of music which is huge in America which is country. These things are not happening in the UK. R+B and hip hop is not a form of music that kids grow up on. In England, kids grow up on dance music. Our youth culture is dance culture. In Europe, we're all growing up on similar sounds whether it's techno or house, it's still dance. As an international traveling DJ, I can say the last place on the world map to catch onto dance music is America.

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old

Plastic surgery must be like crack, you have one go on it and think this ain't to bad, then before you know it you have a new head.

Re: OMG ... Oakey's looking old
