I wonder if Terry George is the guy I saw rough up some drunk guy that was bothering Joaquin in the stage right VIP?


I found myself standing next to this shortish (well - to me most people are shortish) fellow, dark complexion, looked kinda familiar. Couldn't shake the feeling that somehow I must have met him or something. Anyway - The Show! No time to wonder who the guy next to me is!

After a time some drunk guy begins pestering the young familiar guy and just won't leave him be. A middle-aged man with an Irish accent says to me "Hey! Tell your mate there to piss off!" (or something like that - hard to make it out).

"I have no idea who that guy is." I tell him.

"Oh."

And with that the Irish guy pushes past me, grabs the drunk guy by the shirt and pushes him into the corner of the lounge, where two walls meet. Some struggle happens (drunken flailing vs. determined weight holding down), and then there's a squad of meat-heads that carry the drunk guy out of the theatre.

After the show, as we're all walking down the stairs, I ask the Irish guy what was going on. I explain that I couldn't hear him well and was a little confused by the events.

"Oh! That! Oh. That was just a ... oh, never mind. Naught to do with you mate!"

It was only later that I figured out the young guy was Joaquin Phoenix. And only just now remembered that the name on the table in the lounge was Terry George. Hmmmm.

great story there dzm

Terry George is a writer and filmmaker, most recently Hotel Rwanda. I don't know if he is also a skilled bouncer but it certainly would not be stunning news to find he is.

Phil, how's Morrissey's latest album Ringleader Of The Tormentors? Is it a live or studio release? I over played his last cd You Are The Quarry. I might have to download it from iTunes.

I like it very much. Tony Visconti's production has brought out the best in Mozza in the studio. There's even one track ("Dear God Please Help Me") with a terrific string arrangement by no less a maestro than Ennio Morricone.

A friend just picked up "Smokey Mountain Melodies" -- Bill Davis and his singing dulcimer. for me...he's no longer my friend


Yeah, it's a 78, I do have the means of which to play this record, if it will get played is another story

on my list to get over the next few weeks are
burzum
darkthrone
marduk
Abazkhator

Last few purchases:

Bruce Springsteen: We Shall Overcome (like many others here )
Bruce: Darkness On The Edge of Town
Bruce: Nebraska (both of these in an irresistible sale section in local HMV - taking the opportunity to back up the old vinyls onto CD)
