Why does he have to live in Norfolk? I mean it’s nice enough but he must have enough money to buy a residence nearly anywhere.

Bowie of course. Prince for his legacy, but for his last few records he wasn’t the jaw-dropping force of earlier years. One I really really miss is George Michael. From the same bloody year that gave us Brexit and Trump.

Thought I’d slipped into another timeline for a minute there 👍

Sorry – Joy Division’s tour of Australia and New Zealand?

Sounds like a bit of retrospective distancing from adolescent “aren’t we shocking” playing around with Nazi glamourising to me. I mean, come on.

Re the OP I think some of the criticism was right. The original T shirts (and of course the LP cover itself) did not have the name of the band or the record title on them. So his wearing that tee with the words […]

So Trump’s handlers have a year to get him to declare a state of emergency, a handy pretext to canceling the midterms and installing the theocratic oligarchy? Oh my God, I’ve turned into FauxGeordie 😉

How do you know not to read it until you’ve read it?

I found it tiresome to see it so often. Yes, we get it. Never saw a solution offered.

One can care without telling everyone just how much you care all the time, though.

From the party who invited you to “fuck your feelings” to “now wash your hands.”

Ace review. Their cover artworks remain a low point in cover artwork history, mind. Truly terrible, all of them. Which probably contributed to their low sales.

Fuck off! But seriously 🙄, good review and will now make an effort to see it in a “theater”.

Wow. Billionaires don’t share their wealth among us because they are selfish? If they did the would would be a better place? I’m sure that had not occurred to any of us, the scales have verily fallen from mine eyes etc 🙄

I went with my flatmate to see if we could get in to the London Palladium to see The Smiths. He was a right wide boy so he sidled up to the guy guarding a stage door down an alley and asked him if we could get in […]

But those musicians are artists and producing something of value to people. I don’t think anyone condones their past (or current) behaviours and we’ve debated at length on here about the necessity to separate the […]

Fuck having sympathy for C&C. If he loved her so much he could have relinquished his claim to the succession and married her.

A small gripe I have about the Royals (among many many large gripes) is that we were told she would not receive the title of Queen. Don’t know why I should expend the mental energy on being annoyed about it, they […]

I’ve seen a few but won’t be going to see the Tudor “Kevin The Teenager” play again. Especially in this staging. As Chiz says, it’s a very stupid idea to do this play as a one-hander. I’d go to see it done as […]

Bowie slagged off MTV in 1983 for not playing Black artists. Good for him.
