(TV) Depraved pigfarmer?....enduring image .....



Mea culpa on that one. Of course i'm not hung up on an artist's personal
appearance (though in the case of the Rutles it WAS the trousers that did it
for me make no mistake)...the point that i was making is that i just find it
incredibly insulting that moneyed rock stars like N.Young, and also M.Stipe
for that matter, choose to willfully and deliberately look at times like
they've just spent the night at their local dosshouse.

Must be my upbringing...or maybe the feeling i have experienced recently
that "rock n'roll" has very little dignity left unlike say the jazz
community.
You would never see McCoy Tyner for example coming onstage in the kind of
clothes you might well wear to do the weeding in your
garden....interestingly Monsieur Verlaine has always been quick to align
himself to the jazz tradition rather than the r n' r....'nuff said....
