I’m in two minds about this one – on one hand it’s an excellent set list featuring some prime Animals tunes, but on the other hand I REALLY don’t want to listen to Rog espousing his support for that prize cunt Assange

Quite apart from anything else it has brought out all the “school of hard knocks/university of life/should have studied harder” cunts in droves

It’s been many years since I read that book but I still vividly remember the bit where Les Kellett asked another wrestler to stamp on his infected hand. Hardcore.

Mark Hamill’s guest turn in one of the episodes was an absolute delight.

I did a quick google search and there doesn’t appear to be a song called “I am a fucking lying cunt who deserves to drown in a pool of my own excrement”

Gilmour may be a bit of a dullard, but at least he’s not a vocal supporter of closet-dwelling sex nonces*, so he’s got that going for him. Which is nice.
(*alleged closet-dwelling sex nonces, for the benefit of […]

There was some interesting stuff in there, to be fair – for example, I had no idea that he was all set to replace Andy Rourke in The Smiths for a tour of America.
There’s a great spotify list to be made of all […] -

I got Guy Pratt’s book for 2 dollars thinking it might be an entertaining read. How wrong I was. Nothing but a collection of tedious tales of chemical and alcohol-related overindulgence, all couched in “what jolly […]

He’s not wrong about the Chaiyya Chaiyya scene from Dil Se. It’s absolutely stunning, and the tune’s an absolute banger to boot

The things I look forward to the most when I visit my family back in the UK are crumpets, malt loaf with a liberal spreading of butter, and twiglets. Although I have discovered that Trader Joes here in the US […]

I’m somewhat reluctant to mention this for fear of setting off a certain – shall we say, “decade-specific” – poster but the Rolling Stones have a special release planned for US RSD…

I’ve pre-ordered my copy of this. The only other deluxe I have is Afraid Of Sunlight – I foolishly didn’t buy Misplaced Childhood when it came out and now its going for silly money.

Michael Palin cracking for a moment as he lamented that he would no longer be able to enjoy a few pints with his old friend was one of the saddest things I have seen in some time. What a lovely man Palin is.

I just read this myself online, it’s a lovely piece of writing. Michael Hann’s obituary in The Guardian was very good too:
I’m finding this news has hit me harder than I thought – he really was one of the genuine good guys.

This is very sad news. Beyond The Lighted Stage is an exemplary lesson on how a band can stay together for 40 years, remain friends and not turn into complete arseholes along the way.
