London Drinks next week.

Rubbish, he was a smack head and it's a medical fact that heroin abuse
keeps you looking young and fit.

Rubbish, I've never done smack.

 

Yeah, as if proof was needed, look at Iggy Pop.

... John Belushi and Janis Joplin.

 

A very good point. Whatever happened to Paul Cook and Steve Jones?

Listening to Never Mind the Bollocks again. Cracking albumn, sounds as
fresh as when I first heard it. Mind you I don't feel compelled to jump
up and down spitting[1] at the mirror anymore though.

[1] Does anyone else remember gobbing at bands? Wonderfully antisocial.
Still, when I saw the Damned once, Captain Sensible pissed on the crowd
so I suppose the gobbing was fair enough.

We don't have mirrors in this house

 

Or looked in a mirror recently.

 

And Jim Morrison.

Show me the pictures of Jim, Janis or John looking old and grey.

Come to that, show me the pictures of Iggy looking like a 60 year old
bloke...

 

That's probably just as well.

 

Probably living it up in some LA mansion.

I'm ashamed to say I was far too pretentious to jump around gobbing in my
youth what with me being a prog rock fan at the time.

 

Yeah, show me the pictures of Jerry Garcia looking old.

 

I would doubt they made that much out of the pistols; though I could be
wrong. The Pistols, as wonderful as they were, were essentially a
boy-band put together by Malcolm McLaren; god bless him.

However Steve Jones appears to be putting an acting career together and
seems to be in Hollywood a fair amount. Paul Cook still seems to be in
the music biz; as does Steve Jones to some extent.

I listened to a fair bit of prog stuff, but that was after punk (for
me).

Do I have to? How did you know I had that picture?

 

Really?
