We'll be grilling The Fall's frontman Mark E Smith next week for a future Cash For Questions inquisition and we want you to tell us what to ask him.
Which ex members of The Fall does he regret falling out with and why? Why did he once read out the football scores on the BBC?
In fact, can you come up with some even better questions?
If so send us yours either via Twitter.com/Qmagazine using the hashtag #QFall (so we can find it), via Facebook.com/Qmagazine, email us at QMail@qthemusic.com or simply leave your question in the comments sections below.
The deadline for questions is Monday (4 February) at 11am (GMT).

What's the rationale for the live gig mixing, and would you care if it pissed off any of your musicians?
Why don't you come on at the same time as the rest of the group at gigs? Is it that you consider yourself more important than the rest?
Why was Crackhouse never officially released?
By the way, Foey Man, I think he's married three women...though the Safron Pryor relationship is sort of shrouded in mystery...

I always look forward to a new Fall cover. For a number of years now you have regularly covered songs (from memory about one per album). What goes into your choices of songs to cover? Is there always an element of homage in them or is it more objective? Thanks!

In your opinion has the North risen or fallen since 'The NWRA'?
Has your method of writing changed in any way since the start of the group?
Would you consider The Fall's work in any way a part of a canon of 'pulp modernism' in the style of say, M.R. James?

Hi Mark. Do you see The Fall as your life's work or just your hobby that got out of hand? What would you like to do if you ever got to retire? x
