So I just found out
Thanks to Briggy, that I live exactly where Winterland used to be. Whoa! No wonder I've been seeing the ghost of Johny Lydon wandering the halls at night.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.
Re: So I just found out
No, that's really him. You see, since he's not dead, it can't be his ghost, so he must be stalking you. He is going to try and convince you that his post-Metal Box material was awesome. You'll reply, "Well, I did like Album, but the rest of it was crap." He'll then have one of his entourage tell you that you are what's wrong with blackness today. You'll then go back to your room and listen to Hootie.
Got a Rake? Sure!

The Ramones played at Winterland. Scorsese's The Last Waltz was filmed there as was The Grateful Dead Movie.

Wait, it's Potsie. Nevermind.
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

I'm well aware of his living status as we had been discussing his hatred of black people always bugging him about the PIL reunion before drifting to chicken discussion. It wasn't really a critique of his career either. More of a "let's be wrong for the sake of an awkward attempt at nonsensical humor".eumaas wrote:I think he's trying to make a joke about JL's career.BR16ADE_R055E wrote:Don't you mean Sid Vicious?

How many people attend festivals vs county fairs?Wolter wrote:I know you love them like a father, but yes...sorry.BR16ADE_R055E wrote:Um, no...Wolter wrote:One step above county fairs.eumaas wrote:Well, certainly an artistic joke.BR16ADE_R055E wrote: A joke?

In addition to the festivals, they have club dates in Japan & London, and of course they played the Hard Rock in Las Vegas (sold out)...Joe & the Meskies played there in Nov. '99, but it was half full.

It's for the train wrecknostalgia factor.

"artistically relevent"...who's "artistically relevent" in the music world nowadays? I guess you haven't been following the reports of the Pistols playing in Russia, etc.Wolter wrote:It's for the train wrecknostalgia factor.
