Year 1:
Starts the December before your decade of no new material, when the Greatest Hits package is released on December 1. On garage forecourts relatives think, “Dad will like that.” No, Dad doesn’t like that as he already has the full albums. The CD ends up in the charity shop, as a coaster, or hanging up in the garden to stop the wildlife eating or crapping on things. (The wildlife thinks if you listen to that, you deserve to have your garden eaten and crapped on.) The accompanying tour starts in July and goes through into the New Year.
