I almost saw him in '94 at Glastonbury...The Glasto rumour mill was at full tilt...he's here but he's drunk ; He's drunk so he's not here ; He wants more money ; 10,000 people bought tickets just to see him, they're gonna riot if he doesn't play...etc. He ended up being replaced by The Lemonheads, i...

Celebs and the well-heeled keep the Wang suite at about two-thirds occupancy, some of which are walk-ins; past inhabitants have included Diana Krall, Bette Midler, and Elvis Costello, That's odd, sticking Bette Midler in the middle of the married couple like that...are they trying to start rumours ...

You're welcome....btw, instead of that rather awkward Bm/Ab at "but I'm counting on you..." you might want to try barred E on the fourth fret...(i.e. x76454 )...sounds just as good to me, and a hell of a lot easier to play...

Anjabro: sacrilege! Edwyn is a comic genius. Those words are fabulous in context, both funny and very singable. It's rightly kept the mighty Edwyn in business in recent years.

Whatever happened to Cop. Fan...?

I was just contributing to a thread involved pervy politicians, pubes, and dongs...and it suddenly struck me....I used to enjoy Cop Fans' enthusiasm for any thread of a sexual nature...

Re: Dinner with Elvis and Cait

Elvis spoke expansively on a variety of topics including an upcoming boxing match between Mike Tyson and some British pugilist.
