Heres my take on what we might have heard: Yo, yo word up here it's MC Ferry, Listen up cause this songs about Jerry, She was my ho but now she's gone, Leaving me to sing soft ass shit like To Turn You on, Ditched for Jagger on every level, That's the last motherf***ing time I do Sympathy For The Devil, I said I'd never talk about it, but what the hell, I put it in my song, its called Kiss and Tell Jonathan - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - --------------------------------- And of course this will be where hes wearing the wife beater, baggy Dior combats and WW2 flying goggles.....

If everytime people went there, the policy was the same, they'd hardly need to blame the top-of-the-bill act, would they? I know sometimes the singer asks that there be no smoking - fair enough. But if BF felt the need to tell the Northampton crowd to leave breakable glass outside, I think he may have misjudged the gig. It was hardly Clash at the Roxy, was it?
