    I watched JJ Burnel from The Stranglers on the One Show the other night. The interviewer asked if they had ever got themselves banned. Answer? 'All the time. From whole countries'. :heehee: Those were the days.

                    Classic! :dbgrtmb:

                    They had it tough in Yorkshire :(. We were luckier as we were warm at night snuggling up to the sabre tooth tiger in our cave. As the youngest I wasn't too happy having to carry the tiger pooh out each morning. I exaggerate a bit as he was only a young smilodon.

                      Just when the world thought that it would be impossible to top the antics of Keith Moon, the producers of Tommy decided to pair him up with Oliver Reed!
