yorks5stringer Posted December 28, 2014 Author Posted December 28, 2014 Smashie and Nicey gave up lucrative food industry jobs to follow their dreams and become DJ's. Smashie is in fact still fond of a bowl of instant mash and Nicey can never turn down a sugar-coated biscuit. Quote

yorks5stringer Posted December 29, 2014 Author Posted December 29, 2014 Crowded House frontman Neil Finn has just had a garden room added to his current property. He intends to keep the current Band Name however. Quote
yorks5stringer Posted December 29, 2014 Author Posted December 29, 2014 Due to the impending ban, Napalm Death are looking at new names. "Five Star" has been rejected as another band laid claims to it in the 90's. The current favourite however is "Pro-Pain" Quote
Diablo Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 [quote]"Pro-Pain" [/quote] That would work a lot better if said in a southern drawl, like pro~~~~~paaaaaayyyyne Rodney Terence Argent is an English rock musician and a founding member of the 1960s English rock group the Zombies and the 1970s band Argent. Their most famous song being "God Gave Rock & Roll To You" of course which was played live on The Old Grey Whistle Test where the bassist wore dungarees and moved the bass in a circular motion in time with Rod Argent on order to appear as cheesy as possible.

yorks5stringer Posted December 30, 2014 Author Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Growing up in Paris as teenagers, Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel" de Homem-Christo liked to play with Motorcycle Helmets and Superglue and were regularly in and out of A&E getting them removed from their heads. After a particularly busy day in A&E over Christmas 2001, the 2 erstwhile musicians tuned up with helmets firmly glued to their heads only to be told "F*** Off you daft punks"! The rest, as they say, is history. Edited December 30, 2014 by yorks5stringer Quote

ras52 Posted December 31, 2014 Posted December 31, 2014 [quote name='yorks5stringer' timestamp='1420021248' post='2644841'] Annual snore-fest "Jool sHoots an Annie" always goes out live, every NYE. Rumours it is recorded in October are totally bogus. [/quote] The source of these rumours is that a number of bands are booked into the TV studio for a date in October, in the presence of a public audience. Many of these bands - and indeed the members of the audience - are then reportedly seen partying elsewhere at the time of transmission. However, the October date is a rehearsal, and all of the acts and punters are recalled on NYE to recreate their exact moves. This can be quite expensive, as the BBC has to cover the cost of lookalikes to be present at alternative NYE festivities. Quote
leschirons Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 A mix up at an agency with a partially deaf secretary led to the wrong letters being sent to the wrong people. This resulted in two huge commercial flops due to poor box office sales for "Carry on Tommy" and a very poor lead vocal performance on the little known first Who album entitled "Ooh I say" Quote

sprocketflup Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) Randy Crawfords libido is legendary amongst the people of her native Georgia. Her song 'Rainy Night in Georgia' is probably not about what you think it is...... Edited January 1, 2015 by sprocketflup Quote

[/quote] My mistake, but the event was of such stratospheric cheesiness the image is still burned into the retinas of those present to witness it. Audience and film crew members were the first ever instances recorded of people suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Mr Argent was so upset at this that all royalties from God Gave Rock & Roll To You are donated to PTSD charities and he promised never to move his guitar in sync with a bassist again. Quote
Diablo Posted January 1, 2015 Posted January 1, 2015 Dr Teeth & The Electric Mayhem are actually a clockwork-powered acoustic group of denture wearers. Quote
