Why he might be annoying:

    He is a real eccentric.
    People were confused with his song 'I Wish I Were A Girl,' thinking Wallis was homosexual, but he clarified that he was not in a 1987 interview, saying 'I wish I was a girl 'cause they get it so easy. Any girl can go home with a chap seven nights a week if she wants. That's why I wished I was a girl.'
    During the same interview, Wallis said on the subject of recording 'On Parole' with Motorhead: 'I didn't sleep. I didn't blink, I didn't eat peanuts, I didn't do anything. I'd be down at Rockfield and a car would come get me. I'd leave Lemmy and Phil to do whatever they could and I'd go off to another part of England to do a Pink Fairies gig. And when the Pink Fairies were on their way back to London, I'd be on my way back to Rockfield. I'd arrive at four in the morning and say, 'Hi. I'm here 'til half past eleven tonight.' At one point I just went insane...'

Why he might not be annoying:

    He is considered by many to be a legendary guitarist.
    He has a recording studio in his own house.
    'I Wish I Were A Girl' was written on a guitar he bought from a pawn shop for 7.50(in English pounds, which is about $11.24 U.S.)
    He stopped drinking, because of a disease that would have made him quadriplegic if he hadn't stopped.
    He runs and maintains his own website.
    He gave out his e-mail address: [email protected]
