[kj] OT: Man held as terrorism suspect over punk song

[jpwhkj at aol.com]

Welcome back, Pat.

Views range from "the culmination of Killing Joke" and "the best thing 
they've ever done" through to "dull".

Personally, I like it... but it's not the best thing they've ever done. 
 What do you think?

Jamie

  actually, the taxi driver didnt report him. After dropping off the
fare, the driver was stopped by a person unknown who asked about his
last fare. This was said by the head of the taxi firm on Radio today -
i only heard it while waiting for the new album to be uploaded to the
iPod and its superb which is why i rejoined the list to see the
responses.
