Sad....if they take totals , we win hands down;if just summer, we lose. The fact BJ is even in the same league is a true indication rock, is in fact, dead.

Well, not exactly. Bon Jovi cannot possibly be in the same league...different fan base for one thing....plus a myriad of other variables. |

thankfully, theres only a few battles we could never beat Bon Jovi at...
• chest hair competitions
• big hair
• fan base percentage of Jersey Mall Rats |

1) because their ticket prices are affordable and theyre comparatively fan-friendly and radio-friendly
2) because the general public wouldnt know good music if it jumped up and bit them in the sphincter |

BLUNT: 'I WANT TO BECOME MORE IRRITATING'
JAMES BLUNT has vowed to become even more annoying so he can score higher on an unusual British opinion poll. The YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL singer has suffered a backlash of criticism in the wake of the success of his debut album BACK TO BEDLAM, which has sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. He was recently voted fourth in a poll of the Most Irritating Things in Britain, above everyday annoyances like noisy neighbours and traffic wardens, but he insists he can improve on this placing next year (07). He says, "When I heard about the poll I was devastated because I just thought fourth was really unfair. "Who on earth beat me? I thought I should have been number one. Next year I'm going to do better than that - I'm going to go for at least top three."

we are all very emotional due to Keith at this time, this thread should be deleted and forgotten as it may prove too much for some of us to handle! |

Puggy - you have been witch hunted, only because of your deep love and concern.
He's drinking too much, and a few other things. End stage. And it was fucking cold out.

Thank you so much for that photo. I am truly moist with excitement.
Wasnt this the same guy who complained a while back that he never gets the respect that he deserves because those nasty journalists always prefere to take photos of him with his shirt off instead of discussing his music?
Guess they caught him unawares with that one, too.
