COVID-related twattery amongst pop stars

[Lang Spoon]

Aye. He could just have a fake vaccine cert though, there's a roaring trade for those among bastards in Ireland right now.

I presume this is the guy from the Corrs

[Jah Womble]

Now there’s a children’s book I might have to write…

[Antepli Ejderha]

No mention of Nicki Minaj and the giant testicle.

[Gangster Octopus]

Yeah yeah...

[Satchmo Distel]

Georgie Fame "supports the Countryside Alliance and has played concerts to raise funds for the organisation" (Wiki), and has been a collaborator of Van Morrison. However his forthcoming gig with the Manfreds does require proof of vaccination or negative test.

T'Pau's "China Virus In Your Hand" was going to be Donald Trump's campaign song, but then he found her to be a bit too right-wing crazy for his taste.

[Jah Womble]

What an absolute plank.

She was never that... intelligent, to begin with. Naming her band over a one trick pony, and one song... not cool. (Get at me later. She always sucked, voice or not)

You need not defend her voice, either. It was awful.

Never saw the appeal there whatsoever. Looked and sounded like a pub-residency band.

They should have refused to treat him. Hippocratic oath shouldn't count for this hypocrite.

[Patrick Thistle]

For fucks like him, there should be no NHS hospital beds. Go to a private hospital, dipshit.

Deeply dipshit?

[Gerontophile]

Carol's not as smart as her dad Desmond.

That's some fucking <applause> level of <applause> right there.

[Gerontophile]

Her out of T'Pau is an anti-masker who keeps retweeting complete rubbish about how it's no worse than the flu, almost no one has died from it, why can't we just get on with our lives etc. In fairness her style is mostly wall-to-wall whingeing about how very hard everything is on her rather than hoax/conspiracy stuff about mind control or whatever.

She was never that... intelligent, to begin with. Naming her band over a one trick pony, and one song... not cool. (Get at me later. She always sucked, voice or not)

[Gerontophile]

That's it, I'm never listening to Right Said Fred again.

Just for a fucking change, eh? x

[Gerontophile]

Before I read this subject/thread, I am surprised it's only 3 pages long.

[G-Man]

For fucks like him, there should be no NHS hospital beds. Go to a private hospital, dipshit.

While we're on the subject of the criminally stupid... I see Right Said Fred are still performing. TO WHOM???

[3 Colours Red]

Deeply dippy for the 'VID he's got.

[Toby Gymshorts]

I don't really believe in karma, but...

[Gert from the Well]

Too stupid for his lungs

I always find people's ability to appreciate black artists (and, in Clapton's case, work with not a few of them) whilst harbouring racist sentiments of that strength distinctly weird. A compartmentalisation thing I suppose, like Philip Larkin's absolutely sincere adoration of Sidney Bechet's music didn't stop him whining about the "violent, thick blacks" who actually lived near him in his letters to Kingsley Amis.

Aah, but the backs they idolise or work with are not like all the other blacks, you see. They don't think they are racist because they love black music and are friends with black musicians, and they do love themselves a bit of brown sugar. And that gives them license to be racist without being (in their minds) racists.

[Auntie Beryl]

It's OK!

The rest of the band are carrying on.

[Jah Womble]

Shed Seven are splitting again, seemingly because their drummer refuses to play in front of a fully vaccinated audience.

Some detail here - although I'm not sure how seriously to take any article that opens with the phrase 'biggest chart-topping band' and then goes on to talk about Shed Seven:

Not quite sure being responsible for Shed Seven splitting is twattery or deserving of a medal.

[Toby Gymshorts]

You can count the number of drummers who aren't dickheads on the fingers of both hands (which is more than drummers can count, etc.).
