Mr
Rotten would like to say belated Happy 50th Birthday to
Rambo on February 14th.
Apologies
to Rambo's fans I would have mentioned it earlier but we were
stuck in swamp going wild. Put it your diary pop fans. Like Mr
Rotten, he gratefully accepts all donations!
PS: I've
bought him some lovely boat shoes.

I
don’t like decaffeinated teabags. The offer to this show
came in the season to be jolly. I don’t know who Bodog
is. I still don’t, but I may in the future. I admire the
wit, audacity and touch of genius to entrust me with the future
of rock and roll. I do not do judgment. I don’t take judgment.
But, by the end of this show you’ll know what this judge
meant. I don’t like decaffeinated teabags.
P.S.
- I always loved live music and these bands genuinely enjoy
what they do, and they write their own songs. Thank you.
Fresh. Whoever wins Bodog’s cash cow contract is well
worth it cause every single band in here is worth it. Words
not given lightly.
Up
yours, John Rotten.

Rotten's
Tenacious D Demands
ContactMusic.com
November 23rd 2006
THE SEX PISTOLS star
JOHNNY ROTTEN cancelled a cameo appearance in TENACIOUS D AND THE
PICK OF DESTINY after demanding "a million dollars" from
producers. Star KYLE GASS claims Rotten - real name JOHN LYDON -
made the demand just to be "outrageous", but he and co-star
JACK BLACK called his bluff. Gass says, "We were using him
in part of our movie and at the last second he pulled out unless
we gave him a million dollars or something stupid. "He's just
trying to be outrageous and he's run out of outrageous." |

Outrageous.
As fabrication goes this
is outrageous.
You never talked to me.
You never attempted to talk to me.
As of right now you’re
still only talking to yourself. Outrageous.
PS: I wouldn’t ask
you for a penny for a piss. Outrageous?
John Lydon.

John
and John recently attended a charity Spoken Word Event at film-maker
Kevin Smith's house (Clerks, Dogma, etc).
In true Rotten style, Mr Lydon read the lyrics to 'The Body', 'Bodies',
'Tie Me to the Length of That' & 'God Save the Queen'.
A fantastic night was
had by all, so "big
thanks" to Kevin and his wife Jen, Russell Milton
and Daniella. You can read all about the event on Kevin's
website.

JL.Com: Prior
to cleaning his tongue with a very nice towel that the Regency
Hotel supplied, Mr Lydon let us know what really happened at
the AngloMania charity dinner the other night. You will not
be surprised to learn that reports of his “oafish” behaviour
are greatly exaggerated. Turns out it was nothing more than
a storm in a D-cup.
There
was no ‘wobbling round the edges of the party’, he
was there at the special invitation of the museum; and had more
right to be there than most. Just remember that if John Lydon
hadn’t been a Sex Pistol, not only would there not have
been an AngloMania; many of the people there wouldn’t have
had a career. John wasn’t there for their amusement; they
were there for his...

Congradulations!
"I wash me hands,
I wash me face, and I watch me arsenal"
"In the company of
some good old scousers, Mr Rotten and Mr Rambo took in today's
match at the Cock & Bull pub in Lincoln Blvd,
Santa Monica, and had a good old chant! It's a nice day to be
a gooner…"
"It
will always be congradulations with me. I've
always been a Cliff Richard fan, and I've never been the same
since Cliff was cheated out the Eurovision song contest. I was
only a small boy at the time, but it affected me deeply. And it
will always be congradulations with me."
"It only takes half
a century?"

Mouth.
