Role: Superfan, self-proclaimed rival of the Chimp
Background
Known trait: Spazzing out and doing retarded movements
There are a myriad of different, and sometimes absurd, characters in Monkey Muso Madness. The Chimp would immediately spring to mind as one of the silliest. But there is one man who is calling himself the Chimp's rival in many aspects, including inherent goofiness: Goldenboy. A self-proclaimed "shiny" superhero who by rights is a superfan of the Monkey Idiot Peanuts, he wants to be rival of the Chimp so he can have some of that delicious banana-flavoured glory. He likes to intrude the stage whilst the band plays, but always ends up thrown into the crowd. In reality however, Goldenboy is in fact Rocky and LuAnn's childhood friend, and went to the same parish and secondary school as the Chimp and Minky. He's also into Marvel comics and wrestling: So much so he trained to be one until an untimely back injury, which might explain his "gammy" movements and mannerisms. He has a high pain tolerance as well: Good thing, as he tends to hurt himself by accident. Goldenboy will make his presence felt: Challenging the Chimp, hitting on many different women and terrorising the band's gigs.
Most likely to say: "Awight?" (in a cockney voice, almost Michael Barrymore-esque)
• He is Irish, rooting from Limerick. Has an older brother, who is a guitarist and an old friend of the Chimp.
• Plays music himself. Though he played bass first, he is learning more traditional instruments like mandolin and bouzouki.
• Goldenboy loves hardcore punk like NOFX and Bad Religion, but is also into Irish folk like The Dubliners and The Pogues.
• Trained to be a wrestler in Wigan, where WWE's William Regal was trained as a youth. He also trained with Paul Burchill as well.
• In wrestling, his favourite moves are the crucifix Fujiwara armbar, Indian Deathlock and big boot (which he calls Yazoo Kick).
• Goldenboy has a son, and is the only known regular in the cast who is a parent.
• Notoriously fickle, he has taken a fancy to about half of the "groupies", and of course dated Gail for a month fairly recently.
• Goldenboy's biggest rivalry with the Chimp at the moment is who's the better Street Fighter player.
