Billy Idol is back!

[Guillaume]

Billy's last album released last year is pretty good! not as heavy as the previous one "Devil's playground" but with some cool tunes

Please don't tell me I have to start a thread called 'wanking songs'... 

I think you should.  But I will not be contributing

Ha!  Looking into getting a ticket for that one.

Now, wasn't there a thread previously about how 'Green And Grey' was somehow about Billy Idol?  I somewhat poo-pooed the idea but seeing as I'd never put the two acts together then perhaps there was something in it?

And isn't Nelson's bass on "Vanity" sounds a bit like the bass on "White Wedding" ?:

that's a good song,,,,,,,,but I would rather dance to it 

NMA, the best band in the whole wide world, followed by the lead singer of Generation-X, on the same stage, the same night, Am I dreaming !!, am I too old to go down to the big smoke and watch,,, no - I am not  . Do I feel too old to go down to the big smoke and watch,, yes I do

There's a great feature length documentary about Mr Idol released recently called 'Billy Idol Should Be Dead', highly recommended.  Very enjoyable, you'll enjoy it if you're interested in this fine chap.  Available on Hulu in the US and Sky Arts (via NOW TV) in the UK.  Or possibly elsewhere if you're a bit naughty with your downloading habits.
