Bernie Ecclestone newspaper advertisement
Not sure what's to be gained (by the watch company at least) using the image of a bruised and battered Bernie Eccleston in a newspaper ad. Is it an attempt at humour or a two fingered gesture towards his attackers? Very strange.

Re: World Cup 2018 Bid
I think the notion that Blatter is more interested in his own legacy is nearer to the mark. He Introduced the first World cup in Asia, Africa and now the Middle East. Of course, that could not have happened without a rule change and why, for the first time, two World cups were chosen at the same tim...

Re: Iron Maiden fed up of making loadsamoney????
Heard the new single on Planet Rock and wasn't impressed. They are capable of better in my opinion. Not a fan really but a decent band.

Canadian view on Punk rock - 1977
Stranglers merit a mention (barely) in this interview from 1977 - taken from the CBC archives.
Some other interesting interviews on the same page - notably the Clash.

Re: Down in the Sewer ...
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh. Down in the sewer Kicking at a lot of empty Four X lager cans And there sure are a lot of them around here How did I get down here? Well it's a long story I should have stayed down home out near the dam And kept my webbed feet warm Instead of freezing them off down here. ...

Re: PLASTIC BERTRAND NEVER SANG A NOTE!
Damn. Does that mean these ladies are still the only Belgians to perform and sing on their own hit song?

Re: New Cloughie movie
I do know the difference between dirty and tough or physical. I also remember watching the 1970 FA Cup final replay with Chelsea and Leeds. Chelsea won, just but deservedly I'd say (don't thank me for such sportsmanship Two Sunspots :D ) but they kicked the shit out of that Leeds team that day. Cho...
