If there was an article of clothing called a Heston what would it be?

I think this is Heston’s motto:

It doesn’t load for you? Try visiting it?
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

I've studied the phenomenon of neo-provincialism in self-isolating online communities but this place takes the fucking cake.

Ok, I visited. I have never heard of this bloke and he is supposedly the most famous tweeter in the world?

As a pop song it's ok. I think Mika has done better. A pretty tune but the lyrics are a bit shit imo.

Is Mika that guy who has a ridiculously high falsetto voice?
His tunes get in your head.

"Grace Kelly" is a great pop song.

It's 1982 your latest album Combat Rock is just dropping out of the charts. It's reached number 2 in the UK and number 7 in the US. Your band is at its most successful /commercial phase to date. Where do you go from here?

Certainly not pissing about with a silent movie. They should have took a few months off before the US Festival. Then a UK tour in June/July 1983 to bed Pete Howard in, promoting their new live album recorded on their short tour of Texas earlier in the year. Sept/Oct record a new album for release in early '84, preceded by a new double a-side single This Is England/The Bottom Line featuring Don Letts on guest backing vocals and percussion. Proceed to global domination and do not pass go.

Bernie had a lot of good points, they just needed to know when to listen and when to tell him to fuck off.
