"He grew up in the 90's," Susan Metcalf said of her husband Joel. "I figured when we started dating there would be some post grunge, alt rock baggage but I never thought it would be this bad."
"All he talks about is Gavin. Gavin this, Gavin that. Did you see Gavin's latest post on Instagram? Here's why Razorblade Suitcase is such a great album. Can we break down 'Everything Zen' lyrics? Let's watch Constantine again. Blah, blah blah. It's infuriating. What is a Machinehead anyway? No one knows. It sounds like mushmouth bullshit to me."
Susan said their relationship didn't start like this. They dated for a couple years and Joel would tell her about all kinds of bands he loved. Bush being just one of the many listed.
"He hid his love of Bush, mostly his love of Gavin pretty well at first," she explained. "I only knew a few songs and he really didn't play much of them when we were dating. He would say things like, when I saw Bush back in 98, Gavin did this or they played that. I thought, oh this guy just loves live music. Little did I know it was the ninth time he saw Bush in 98. In the front row. With a handmade sign. A...handmade....sign."
Fangirling aside, Susan and Joel fell deeply in love. He ended up proposing in a beautiful little park in London. It was one of the happiest days in Susan's life. She didn't know it at the time but it was the same spot Gavin proposed to Gwen Stefani.
"I didn't find out about that one until we had been married a few years," she said. "I guess I should have figured it out though. When he was down on one knee he told me he didn't want to come back down from this cloud."
"Oh come on. I don't love Gavin that much," Joel said when asked about his obsession. "I just don't let the days go by. Sure, I could have been easier on you. I couldn't change though I wanted to. And yes, it should have been easier by three but it's just our old friend fear and you and me..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................glycerine."
