It wasn't so much personalities as "my lot" vs "his lot", the sort of musicians who were influenced by one or other. (He was surprised when I told him Siouxsie and the Banshees cite "Moonlight Drive" as an influence.) It was an argument that drifted all over the place and was really very silly. e.g. I said I'd rather shag Iggy and he said, well yes, Jim Morrison's been dead for 35 years...
