    I can't believe that I sat here and worked that one out.
    Where am I now? I'm over here,
    I've got those empty pockets and I can't afford a beer.

    I agree - the Carter USM version is much better than the Carpets original. If we're talking best cover versions - Manics version of Theme From Mash (Suicide is Painless) has to be in there

    Ooooo, controversial on the Carpets/ Carter version. I'm old fashion and would say I still prefer the Inspirals version, but Carters cover is superb.

    Equally for great covers the Jesus and Mary Chains version of Guitair Man is well worth checking out as is Johnny Cash's version of Personal Jesus and Hurt are top notch.

    Who drove their bike up Marc Almond's a*se? Politicaly incorrect I'm afraid, but the words Marc Almond and motorbike in the same sentence sent my imagination into overdrive. I heard a newsreader reading the bit about him 'riding pillion passenger' almost caused her to **** herself.

    Think that story about his drink was an 'urban' myth, though. Showing my age but my cojones had barely dropped when I first heard that one. Pat, I think you were barely walking then.

    As for Gere? Was he ever in hospital in Pheonix with either a. fractured skull or b. third degree burns of the r*ctum. All the result of a gerbil, a ten inch piece of kitchen waste pipe and a cigarette lighter. It's the money that does it.
    This is the cooooooooooooolest footy forum I've ever seen!

    i could'nt think of a subtle way (like you did ) of putting this
    "accident" into a post.
