Title: Manics’ Nicky Made A Fellow
Publication: The Western Mail
Date: Saturday 9th April 2005


Bassist Nicky Wire has received a lifelong honorary fellowship from the University of Wales, Swansea.

He received the honour just before he performed a concert with his band, the Manic Street Preachers, at the Brangwyn Hall in Swansea on Thursday night.

"I never got a chance to receive my own degree as we were on tour at the time," said Wire.

"This more than makes up for it - what a great way to start a gig."

Nicky graduated from Swansea with a degree in politics in 1990 before going on to top the charts with the Manics.
