Unsubstantiated rumors and the like.

"I totally heard that Shane drinks liquid LSD by the liter."

Then the rest of us get our jollies pointing and laughing.


I suppose an awful lot of the press reviews should be copied here:

"Shane was so inebriated that he had to leave the stage every three songs. His confused and bemused colleagues would then cover for him while he refilled his pint glass with a mixture of vodka and gin."
“I know all those people that were in the film [...] But that’s when they were young and strong and full of life, you know?”

Mabye its like "You know Spider, hes a man of the world, nudge nudge..." and things like that. Not use anyone makes any threads like that, although someone did once make one about Shane and Kate Moss, so maybe they do.

Yep, the day after he'd written Carolan's Concerto, but in the morning of course, 'cause that afternoon he was due to put the finishing touches on the 1812 Overture for that Russian fella...

And for anyone who hasn't seen it (is there such a person?), or who needs reminding, here's the clip.

Music, of course, by Richard Wagner, "The Ride of the Valkyries"
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.
