'Course all the wogs and dagos wait outside to knife you for your cans. It wasn't like that when Edward smiled upon the empire. Not like that at all.

Would anyone have an interest in hearing Bernie talk? I would totally be into that.

The guy's got a serious ego—the recurring line from Bernie in
Redemption Song that, deep down, Joe wanted to be him—and he's got a deep need to correct what he thinks is a grossly unfair record in terms of punk's development and his role. I'd definitely go to that for the yuks. And to maybe ask an EET question.

I would go. Despite his (many) faults I am grateful for Bernie's contribution which has been downplayed and idiculed over time.

He was fortunate to work with some great bands. How much of their greatness is down to him is extremely debatable.
