Classic rock awards - vote for Everyone Stares!

Try moving your face closer to the spoon and maybe the results might be more realistic. If not then I guess I'm talking shit. However good for a laugh (or not) and not a personal attack a Pete either. The great god of the Windmill.

Shame about Mooney and John. Mooney is a legend. I know he wasn't that technical but still a fantastic talent and original sounding and a complete rock n roll nutter. Big fan. I wonder what SC thinks of him?

As for JW what I player. I once saw some charity concert about 14 years ago with JW and Andy Summers together with Meatloaf (not a fan) but with a great bass solo by John on a version of Jonny B Goode. I'll look for it on you tube in a sec. But how ironic but sad that as he was as straight as a die in the 60/70s (apparently) but died of a heart attack with coke in his system, whilst with some ladies of the night. Weird but a complete tragedy and utter loss to the band and us all.

Whos JW Franco. Sorry guys meant JE. I'm crap at these abbreviations

[Franco]

Couldn't find the link to Andy Summers playing in some charity gig thing with vesion of Jonny B Goode with John Entwistle. Dont matter I guess of gone of the subject but it was sort of like this one

Ok, Franco. Thanks for the spoon trivia. I look oddly like John Lennon reflected on the side of a diet Coke can

Love Pete's work. He's a true musical genius.


BTW, I've voted for The Man 's DVD!!!!! YAY!!
Also voted for Police/Genesis reunion and picked The Pretenders.

Try moving the spoon up and down, side to side, around and around etc. You will then see the genius of this science. You should get the slanty/ squinty eye effect and beautiful nose effect. Very much like my own nose.

(Don't listen to me. I'm slightly enibriated with beer and very peed off as England just lost to Germany at football in the 1st game of football at the new Wembley stadium 2-1. We went 1-0 up and due to a schoolboy error by keeper Paul Robinson 1-1 and then 2-1 down by a blinding goal from a brother from the fatherland. Not happy. For u guys in the states I know u know football over there is called Soccer but actually soccer is derived from the words asSOCCIAtion football but I guess most people are into polo on this website so no one should ever dare slag me off for playing and loving cricket!!!)

Is that really where the word soccer comes from? Really. My education continues on SC.net

Too bad. I love England (and no matter how many games they lose to Germany they WON the Important One...), F1 and so should you....cricket is a lame version of baseball with very prolific players [my previous bf was one].

[Franco]

Cricket is not a lame version of Baseball at all. That is the most ridiculous statement I have ever heard in my life. We play a version of baseball over here for women and children only and its called rounders. Cricket has musch more skill and more sporting technical ability. For starters the balls aload to bounce therefore thats why you have spin bowlers and also we have the pace aswell and swerve (called swing over here). But for most people it goes on for 2 long but the 20/20 game is a new thing taking off. Lasts about as long as a baseball game with more big hitting and more wickets over time period. But wil emmigrate oneday, maybe to Canada, and if there is no cricket then I guess I will have to play baseball because I love fielding. but why do all the fielders where gloves? It's not very manly is it? And on a final note there is no way baseball is better than cricket and I'll never back down! (dont take personally, just paaionate)

Cheers for being with me on the England v Germany though mate. Much appreciated. Beckham didn't play too bad but not too good either. He's controlled by his wife and a money grabber but a nice Londoner all the same.

He's got my vote!

You Passed The Test...I have been with a cricket player for a year, I KNEW the comparison with baseball would send you bonkers I knew how to push his buttons!

I am Italian, ball sport is soccer to me....

[Kalypso]

BTW I imagine your accent as Phil Daniels on Parklife!

The point of cricket is to have the radio commentary on in the background, at home. Unlike baseball commentary, this mostly consists of a bunch of old duffers discussing how long it will be before the rain stops and play can resume, while passing (usually favourable) comments on the quality of the cakes delivered to the commentary box by grateful women who have managed to get 3 days of peace and quiet at home while their spouses are sitting in plastic macs at Lords watching the rain and listening to a bunch of old duffers talking about the rain and the cake.

I like Polo better.

[quote="Kalypso"]I like Polo better. [/quote]

I can see the attraction - but I'm insufficiently posh to get an invite!

[TheEqualizer]

I'm not sporty enough for polo either. It seems too scary to me. Maybe I'm just being a baby. Typing is making me thirsty; better have some ginger ale.
