the fat old scumbags

Hallo, Starry said; that were the stranglers were playing in some chrome'n'steel venue in Greater Manchesters Trendy Bolton, and were blessed with the offering of many plastic glasses hailing onto the stage during their "performance". Brandishing one of the glasses, Mr Jean Jaques Michelle Jarre or whatever his name was said: "Plastic glasses, yeah, thrown by plastic people, in a plastic world".Superb. It would have been even better if his smart-arse comments were followed by a hail of heavy glass bottles upon his punk rock head. Plastic world my arse. I was pleased to see our hot boys and girls on Top Of The Pops the other day, at least they looked like they were having a laugh which is more than you can say for Chrissie Hynde these days. The monkey was a welcome sight as well, as monkeys always are. Just a shame that it wasn't wearing a fez. Well I'm listening to the new LP as I write, (a tenner from Sainsburys -a snip) and I am liking it kids. My favourites are pretty much along the lines of everyone elses so far, 'I Fought In A War' being the standout for me. And 'Don't Leave The Light On Baby'. As for 'Beyond The Sunrise', well I'm undecided. I am as big a fan of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra as the next man, but I sort of feel like I'd rather just listen to 'Lee and Nancy' than a song that sounds a bit like one of theirs. On the whole, though, I love the LP and reckon it was worth the wait. Speaking of which, I saw that film last night. You know, a bunch of Americans go into space and it all goes wrong. Based on a true story. 'Armageddon', that's the one. It was shit. Later kids, and a big shout-out and get-well-soon to the Velocity Girl with her busted hand, Will x ===== Visit The Remote Viewer homepage http://www.members.tripod.com/remoteviewer/ ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
