A once a year viewing, simply to see Moonie's Uncle Ernie
bits & pieces, EC's gig hawking empty miralces in the name of
religion, Arthur Brown's dispatching of the body of Christ,
Scotch & salvation, the never ending fields of the Hollywood
Bowl's leftover testicles painted silver, Ann Margret's tits,
Pete's little run toward the camera and rubber wrist strumming
during Butcher Boy's take on PBWizzerd, is more than enough.

Other quality highlights overlooked?

This casting would have made for a much better film.

The truth will never be known, but Keith Richards has ALWAYS
thought there was foul play.

I, however, did not drown Brian Jones, I loved the guy, he was
truly my first Rock Star Idol. Still think he was great, still
think he is vastly underappreciated, still think he was/is the
best harmonica player Britain ever produced, and best early
slide guitarist of the first British Wave.

*mc* killed Brian Jones AND Curt "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" Cobain,
before he was born. Skinny ass bastard!

Let's hang *mc* for Brian Joes' sake....but....

.....thanks for doin' Cobain, mc, I hated the guy.

Or really REALLY straight, tight assed, and boring.

Probably likes Don MacLean.
