Answer 2

Like Smoochy, I adore Bowie but since Smoochy has already mentioned him. Then I will talk about Siouxsie Sioux from Siouxsie and The Banshees instead. Well the only shocking thing I know about her, is the fact she used to wear alot of Nazi Swastika paraphernalia, before one day she was punched by someone for doing so. Which prompted her to realise that Nazi symbology is not a very positive thing. So from that day, she educated herself about the whole WWII Nazi atrocities and of course created a song called Israel, with the Banshees about the plight of the Israel people. There is also another song the Banshees created as well I think, which is to do with the same sort of thing. But at the moment I can't remember the name of that song sorry.



BQ:Hyaena, Juju, A Kiss In The Dreamhouse, Tinderbox and Thorn.

BQ2:Something featuring Brian Eno's name, but what it is I have no idea...

BQ3:Someone's already answered this for you.

BCommand1: "Blood like liquid falling, falling in cascade."

Answer 3

Cool site!



On another site dedicated to Eno, it shows a picture of Eno surrounded by phrases that start with "I am.." Then I saw one of them said, "I am a masturbator." I was kinda irked by that.



I also read somewhere that Freddie Mercury wrote Bohemian Rhapsody while getting head.



BQ: Brian Eno - The Shutov Assembly

Queen - Sheer Heart Attack

BQ2: King's Lead Hat ---> Talking Heads

BQ3: Probably cuz ambient music just sounds so pretentious. Music that can be listened to with detail or just left on in the background. It just seems so... artsy and well, pretentious.

Bkomododragon1: In the blue August moon *Ooh ooh ooh*

Answer 4

Bands: The Strokes, Interpol Arctic Monkeys Singer: Julian Casablancas Game: Fifa 13 Album: Turn on the Bright Lights Football moment: When Bofo made the winning goal against Toluca in the final Food: Wing Stop

Answer 5

I once heard that Freddie Mercury had a "Drug Buffet" at his house.



It's not really revolting or disgusting, but it is odd.



And by the way, Freddie Mercury mostly wrote Bohemian Rhapsody at his house. It is said that he would play the piano backwards because the headboard of his bed was a piano.



BQ: News of the World

BCommand1: "I am the eggman, they are the eggman, I am the Walrus."

Answer 6

Here we go

The Sex Pistols - Steve Jones once ..err ..relieved himself into a sandwhich and gave it to Glen Matlock who thought it was particularly salty mayonaisse

Killing Joke - Jaz Coleman was so angered by a bad review from a music paper that he dumped raw meat and live maggots on the reception desk

Exploited/UK Subs - Wattie (Exploited) once gave Charlie Harper (UK Subs ) a pint of urine and let him drink it thinking it was beer (who knows what Charlie usually drinks then)

Boys will be boys!



BQ - Sex Pistols - well there is only one

Killing Joke - What's This For

Exploited - Troops Of Tomorrow

UK Subs - Brand New Age

Andrew - impressive multitasking there by Freddie Mercury!



Irishlass - I think Townshend is happily and heterosexually married although possibly bisexual

Answer 7

Not my favorite artist but Pete Doherty kissed Amy Winehouse. I don't even know how he could possibly get the strength to even be in the same room with that creature.



It was probably the heroin, I suppose.



BQ: 'Up the Bracket' - The Libertines

Answer 8

I have a friend who was a roadie for Queen and he has told me stories of Freddie's liking for young boys that utterly disgust me. Which is sad as I grew up with Queen, I never thought he was a saint but this guy was an asshole!



BQ: 'The Game'

BQ2: I hope it's not rude?

BQ3: Who cares, 'Another Green World' is amazing!

'He's A Rebel'????, oh well. You asked.

Answer 9

This just about made me puke...

It's not reallly discusting, but I was shocked to find out that Pete Townsend was gay.
