Dunno but the painting is a bit “edgy” to say the least even if it was back in more liberated times

Wasn't a painting, the 11 year old girl became a minor celebrity.

Ginger Baker used to drank in a pub where I was a part time barman, known as a bit "edgy"

I was lucky enough to get one of the early copies with the secret booklet hidden behind the CD tray too. And I saw them Live in Warrington the day it was released. One of the best nights of my life.

I think it was the whole ripping off black musicians and then saying send them all home that wasn't the greatest highlight of a career.

Oh and nicking his best mate's Mrs.

And stealing the riff from Lyla (and the piano coda) 

And only last month suing a woman for selling a 3.99 bootleg.

I bet he left that hotel window open as well...

(That might be a bit too far)

Clapton as a musician he is almost untouchable, as a person he's a piece of shit

I stand corrected then I thought I’d read that it was a painting but looks like I misread an article.

Which tours? Bet they were fantastic live in their pomp.

1975, for Original Soundtrack, at FTH

1978, at the Apollo, after Godley and Creme had left.

The first I kind of remember as being a great night, but we were mad fans.

I have the feeling that I’ve been to better shows since, but memory fades!

My Wife saw them in our local town here in Germany the other Month. I was working so couldn't go. Play a song, talk about it for 10 minutes, play another song, talk about it for ten minutes. Same when we saw Steve Hackett in Munich in 2019.

I’ve still got this, booklet an all.

I was at the same gig which was broadcast live on Radio 1.

There were some baffled fuckers in the crowd though.

I think most of Nick Cave's albums could be on this thread.

they do get a bit samey after a while:

An image of a black background. In the bottom-left centre, monospace-style green text reads "Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds" in uppercase and "Skeleton Tree" in normal-case. Underneath is a static text cursor.

 

some of the others are decent like

He can't hold a note - a Poundstretcher Jim Morrison. Music to stick your head in the oven to. He wears rings on his fingers and has pierced ears.

 

Used to be a dope shooter too

I'm sure he wears a skull ring on his finger - he can't sing for toffee, I worry about some of you - Bob Dylan, 10cc, Nick Cave, Oasis? Get your ears syringed.

Don't be putting Oasis anywhere near that list.

Deary, deary me.

I fear your compass is broken and you've been sent wayward down a one way musical backalley unable to tell right from wrong, and up from down.

Happy to be as gay as a maypole if that's the case.

Hove a listen to the album. Songs don't really make me cry alone, but honest to god listening to Bright Horses - teared up on the train into work!

Me too sister.  
 

Yeah im a Nick Cave fan first heard him on the Deathly Hallows film and was like wow who the fuck is this then I’ve not looked back. Not seen him live yet though
