Sounded to me like Robyn made this up on the spot? _____ From: HwyCDRrev@aol.com [mailto:HwyCDRrev@aol.com] Sent: 28 October 2006 23:03 To: matthijs@vangeldere.nl; woj@smoe.org; fegmaniax@smoe.org; fegmaniax-announce@smoe.org; robynhitchcockclub@yahoogroups.com; vegetablefriends@yahoogroups.com; remring@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: DIME: DVD - Robyn Hitchcock & The Venus 3 - Tokyo Boat Party - Oct 10 2006 In a message dated 10/28/2006 10:35:59 A.M.

That ranks up there with the old Bowie/Klaus Nomi gig for all-time creative staging. (Too bad the rest of the show was 100% laugh-free.)

MacGowan, who really can't afford to discard his already limited supply of teeth so casually, was returning from a late-night music and drinking session when he got out of the car he was travelling in to get sick. Bizarrely, he was rudely interrupted by a wall, which he promptly fell over, cracking his face on some loose bricks. MacGowan has been without his two front teeth for many years, and he's lost many more in the intervening years. Ex-Girlfriend Victoria Clarke claimed in 1996 that the singer had damaged his teeth by eating a copy of the Beach Boys' Greatest Hits, Vol. 3 LP whilst under the influence of LSD. Commented pal Dan Gleeson, "We had decided to go to Limerick for a session and were passing through Kilcurry, outside Nenagh, on our way home about 11pm. "We stopped because Shane wanted to get out and be sick and the next thing I saw were his two feet disappearing over the wall. They are widening the road there and Shane just disappeared over the wall. "It was dark at the time of course and by the time he got back on his feet he realised he had lost two teeth. He was a bit shaken up and a bit sore. He hasn't exactly got too many teeth to lose." It was recently reported that MacGowan may use the money earned from the Pogues' reunion tour in 2004 to purchase a new set of teeth. ------------------------------ End of fegmaniax-digest V15 #257 ********************************
