    Beck is great. Loser is a great song. Reminded of Creep by Radiohead.

     

    Long time since I’ve seen Radiohead, must have been either October or November 1995 at Manchester Academy. Time flies by so fast

    Here is The Donald mocking a disabled guy.  

     

    I don’t profess to know Donald Trump. But have met Noel on many an occasion during the mid to late 80’s as he was mates with some of my mates at that time and followed Man City home and away with them.

    I often would meet up and catch the train to an away game with them and meet up in the Parkside pub when playing at home. Noel was always articulate and had a dry sense of humour even back then. Pretty much the same as most Northern people in the UK.

    So I’m certain he said what he said in jest. The media making a mountain out of a mole hill as per usual.

    As for Trump I don’t really care one way or the other as he means and as nothing to do with me whatsoever

    The other bully brother. What a dick, which everyone knew really.

    Noel Gallagher blasted as 'vile' by charity after admitting he 'blagged' way onto disabled platform at Glastonbury festival

    "Accessible platforms aren’t for privileged rock stars and their friends"

     

    Noel Gallagher has been blasted as 'vile' by a charity after he 'blagged' his way onto a viewing platform for disabled people at Glastonbury festival. The Manchester-born musician admitted that a security guard initially stopped him from using the platform before he flashed his 'Access All Areas' pass.

    Gallagher, 55, went on to 'belittle' those with disabilities on the podcast and admitted that his pass could get him 'f***ing anywhere'. The musician managed to gain access to the viewing platform at the John peel tent to watch Jamie T on the Saturday night of the popular festival (June 25).

    He said: “I said: ‘See that pass mate? It gets me any f***ing where.” The Mirror reported he then went on to joke that he 'would have' tipped someone out of a wheelchair and encouraged his son to sit in it to get them in the prime spot, and that he would pretend to touch people on the forehead telling them to “rise… you can walk”.

     

    While speaking on Matt Morgan's podcast, Noel said the group “couldn’t get to the bit on stage because we were f***ing wasted”, so he “flashed my pass and said this lot are with me and we walked on to this platform - unbeknownst to us it was the disabled platform”.

    “I gotta say, those disabled cats have a great view of everything," he added. Charity Scope have since said that Gallagher's 'casual abuse' of disabled people is 'vile'.

     

    Warren Kirwan, Media Manager at the disability equality charity said: “The casual abuse and belittling of disabled people in this interview is vile. There is no excuse for this kind of language.

    “On top of that, accessible platforms aren’t for privileged rock stars and their friends. These platforms exist so that disabled people can enjoy live music - without them many of our festivals would simply be off limits.”

    Knowing Noel, he probably did say that about disabled people but said it in jest. He can be such an arsehole at times.

    On second thoughts.... stick to the £500,000 gigs, greedy boy. Put on them uggo Clarks and do the hip replacements. No need to get over here for the fans when you can squeeze out a half a million quid for 30 mins at a party for the privileged. 

    Liam Gallagher 'paid £500,000 to perform for 30 minutes at private birthday bash'

    https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/liam-gallagher-paid-500000-perform-27385348

    Liam Gallagher was paid half a million pounds to perform at a private 50th birthday party for just half an hour. 

    The former Oasis frontman reportedly earned the staggering amount of money in exchange for a 30-minute set at a lavish birthday bash for B&M retail boss Bobby Arora, the Sun reported.

    They are getting as bad as football stars. Overpaid for very little effort.

    He might make it here before his double hip replacement surgery, here's the damn arthritis again. I really hope so and before October, then I'm off to the land of cultural drought but best place in the world for ladymen! Can't have it both , can you.

    Ugliest coat I've seen in years and the shoes?? 

    Definitely a horrible coat. Much prefer the Snow Peak C/N parka

    Not sure what he was thinking here though , but it was reportedly  and ‘extortionate amount’ he got.

    Liam Gallagher mocked for becoming face of Clarks shoes despite 'trying to stay edgy'

    https://www.joe.co.uk/amp/news/liam-gallagher-clarks-campaign-345363-345363

    Is it safe to assume you’ll  be sporting a pair of Clarks in Bkk soon? :biggrin:
    I like his reasoning though, he’s getting old just like the anyone else.  That’s said, maybe the worst shoes a man can wear after crocs.

    “Years ago it would have been like, ‘You what? I beg your f***ing pardon?’

    "These days it’s, ‘Chill out. You’ve had your share’. I’m ­listening to that voice a lot more. I don’t want to feel s**t any more. 

    "Or break any more hearts. I’m nearly 50, I want to have good times, not s**t times.

    “I’d love to get off my t*ts all the time, but I can’t handle it.”

    If this is what he wants to spend his time doing now, it really is the end of the road for him as a ­credible rock’n’roller.

    Clarks Wallabees became famous not because of Liam even thought Oasis were wearing them back in the early days along with Clarks Desert Treks, judging by their photos. But by Richard Ashcroft of The Verve in the video to the single Bittersweet Symphony were he walks down Wigan high street bumping into people. Suddenly every Tom Dick and Harry were wearing them. 

    Yes I have owned a few pair over the last four decades and still do. But I ve never owned a pair of crocs :bad:

    Looking forward to the Cardiff gig in September

    They ever called you ‘saddit’?

    I’ve  had that many times and I’m not even into BDSM.  They are a peaceful kind the Thais. It’s the buddism ,I guess.

    No I’ve never been called that lol. Been called a lot of other things though lol

    Seen a few off his interviews and question time. This guy talks a lot off sense.  I worked as a track relayer (track renewals) and a plate layer (track maintenance) for 8 years after I left the Army and the working conditions back then as well as health and safety were a joke as were the wages. Good on this guy for standing up for the unions.

     Its easy to blame the girls for hitting the pipe , but in her case it was often the customers requests. I hope she's doing well today.

    I’ve heard that about a few girls were customers have got them to get them drugs and got the lbs to smoke with them.

    I first went to Thailand in 1991 and my uncle warned about the drugs and the consequences of them. Have to say apart from sidagra I haven’t even had an aspirin over there

    Me too.

    She was one of the lasses who actually didn’t go though the motions but actually craved sex. Had some good times with her. Also she bubbly and genuinely a funny person. It was sad to see her go down hill. As you say hope she’s doing well.

    Miss Guess Bar, definitely my favourite ever bar in Bangkok

    Oh my, little Fern! Wonder what ever became of her. I hope she was able to kick the pipe habit. She was a sweetheart.

    First took her back in 2008 and again in 2009 from Guess Bar. Then again in these pictures from 2012 when she was at Temptations. She was looking much skinnier than before and on the ice I believe 

    Lost contact after that for a few years and then saw her looking much healthier in November 2015 in Terminal 21 coming out of the cinema. As I was going in. Just nodded to each other as we were both with some else That’s the last time I saw her
