Elton John watched two hours of gay porn. He says, I'm still standing.

What's smelly, full of shit and gives Mancs a boner? Tony Wilson... I saw a concert sign, New Order: Sold Out! I thought, Yes, in 1993, you c**ts... I said, Doctor, I keep listening to one shit song that's been remixed to death. He said, How does it feel?... Seriously, it drives me mad when people say New Order are just a Joy division spin-off. I hate that - cos I've heard Joy Division. And they're even f**king worse... What's boring, jerks off to Hitler and pays three c**ts' rent? Ian Curtis... What did John Lennon say to Ian Curtis? I know you're depressed - but nothing to get hung about. What did John Lennon say to Ian curtis the next day? Let me take you down... My dad was a failed epileptic. No great shakes. Could've been a mover and shaker. On Twitch... I loved it when Tony Wilson said. 'We didn't make records - We made HISTORY!' It's only half true. Like saying Joy Division were shit hot. History? Yeah, the Declaration of Independence - the Second World War - Crispy f**king Ambulance. For f**k's sake. And how could I forget the Stockholm Monsters? Easy. Cos they're total and utter f**king shit too.

Ringo Starr says the secret of survival is to be positive. How does he manage to stay positive, this multi-bulti-zillionaire for doing f**k all except bonking Barbara Bach, boozing so hard he makes George Best look like Cliff Richard, and collaborating with Macca despite having the talent of - well, of Ringo? How do you do it mate? What's yer f**king secret? I guess we'll never know.

Parody with well known comedians doing well observed impersonations of various musicians.

SNL is almost total shit.

And selling paintings that look like they've been daubed by a blind chimpanzee

Yeah, I was really disappointed by his paintings. After the stunning progress he's made as singer/drummer over the last 65 years...

I'm watching Classic Albums on Sky Arts Dark Side of the Moon. I've seen it before but I always find these things fascinating.

Interesting to see their gigs and the audience looking impassive and bored. That was the time when you weren't allowed to move at gigs.

Nah it's just Pink Floyd sucked

In Fire by the Crazy World of Arthur Brown I could never understand why he wanted to take you to Switzerland.

I wonder if any of the girls on the Hendrix cover have tried for a payout?

And apparently there's a very angry leaf suing New Order...

Apparently he's got Nevermind tattooed on his chest and has taken photographic recreations of the cover design. Would he do that if he was embarrassed? Also he was a baby. Who would recognise him from that now if he hadn't opened his mouth? Unless of course he's got a distinctive physical characteristic.

Verging on Pop but there's a racism row about Cheryl Whatserface presenting a podcast about R'n'B.

I can understand the annoyance because I wouldn't think she knows much about R'n'B although it depends how they define it.

This genre has been going on for decades but it might just be concerned with the recent definition. It probably goes back to the 1940s although someone will probably correct me.
