i know we have had arguments in the past but I fully agree with with your sentiments. What a man. Changed the music industry, and will go down as history as a musical hero without ever playing an instrument.

RIP.

Hopefully there is a transit van with a hooker waiting for him in heaven.

Agreed (apart from your rather unhealthy and misogynistic comment about 'hookers', something I'd found rather distasteful in the thread about The Baw as well)

I'm not being a prick, if you think it's fine to demean women in such a casual way then that's up to you. If I made a 'light hearded comment' about people of a specific racial background and you called me on it would you be a 'prick'?

Or is it ok to even jokingly reduce women to mere sex objects, to be used by men?

Cos I don't think it is.

Alex, have you seen 24 Hour Party People? The hookers comment is relevant to a scene in that.

I wonder how Rob Gretton and Martin Hannett are going to meet him in the afterlife?

Shame he's gone.

Alex - Don't you think its offensive to assume that all prostitutes are doing it simply because they are being exploited?

(bring on the 'I know 14 women who are prostitutes and they all hate their lives, bla bla bla')
