Ah but, Butt, musically the UK is 3 years ahead of America. But nevertheless good point.

Here's last night's show. Scroll down for PiL.

Fantastic - the spirit of Ian Dury!

Thanks! I like both performances. God, I really need the last two PiL albums!

Yes - I need the new one at least.

And ten, by pearl jam

Last night I met a few friends for margaritas and dinner at a Mexican restaurant; one of the guys brought a childhood friend who was in town for a few days. I was having a conversation with one of my neighbors about a rather troubled kid named Jeremy who lives down the road and I made a wisecrack about hoping that he didn't "speak in class today." She had never heard the Pearl Jam song ("Jeremy") so she just gave me a blank look, but the friend-of-a-friend said, "I was there that day." It turns out that he was seated next to the kid who shot himself and he described the entire incident in detail. What a weird coincidence.

Holy crap!

Psychedelic Britain on BBC4

Would the Butt in DaButt refer to a gun by any chance?

We do have an equivalent in Britain. It is the media talking about illness every 15 minutes. It started when young folk were not allowed to get mortgages and told they had to work until 103. The Government took the decision not to do anything about it other than scare the shit out of everyone else to make the former feel ok. I've just written a pamphlet about it "Overly Liberal Nazis Choose The Ghoul". Anyhow best regards, Jeremy x.

Worth watching just to see Ringo in a pink army surplus outfit and a bushy moustache. Now that is a posh shell suit.

Like it - as George is the only one wearing a hat, does that mean he is the one that died and is a look alike replacement and not Paul?
