• I’m not a resident and I’ve never been there, but I’m amazed none of you pointed out that top Indie band Tiger are from Princes Risborough. Their antics around the town are the stuff of legend – the lead singer once tried to convince the entire press that there was an escaped leopard on the loose in the countryside there! He did some fake photos and build a papier mache tiger to prove his point. When asked what the people of Princes Risborough thought of them getting signed to a label, he said “I don’t think anyone there has noticed”. Point proven on Knowhere, I feel.
