[kj] As usual, KJ's choice of label leaves something to be desired...

[Paul Wady]

Hahaha!  Very true.  They were not stupid enough to die of a heroin overdose in the bath.  Narcissist...
When we went to Père Lachaise cemetery last year I found I had a very bad attitude to going anywhere near The Grave.  I found it by accident in the end & they'd put a policeman on it & closed it off.  I was not impressed by his end, but The End is brilliant.  As I have grown up I can appreciate this stuff more.  Or I am better at being Neurotypical, as we call most people.  I found Marcel Marceau's grave there.  Very quiet place.  (Sorry)

I still love the Rolling Stones. Yes, they continue to make music, but I wouldn't say they've released anything worth getting excited about since -- shit -- UNDERCOVER (and that's being VERY generous). Still, they at least have a good two decades on the goddamn Doors.

They are obsessed with the early 60's/70's fan base who can afford the price of their magazines.  

Now that the middle aged KJ have released fresh, vibrant and up to date with the real world material, I see Alex's point somewhat.  

 

The whole idea of these old bands, very old now, was to move forwards and do and say something new.  

 

I want to come out:  I COULD NEVER HANDLE THE ROLLING STONES.  Never really worked for me....
