the bad thing is that the messenger was Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit, performing live on the most popular saturday evening show Wetten Dass (German/Swiss/Austrian coproduction) wearing proudly a Joy Division T-Shirt.

Now imagine if Fred watched a Herzog film one night and decided enough was enough.

Goddamn do I want to ghostwrite Fred's autobiography

Well, I'd buy it.

at the very least I'd probably get to hear the legendary Rivers Cuomo collabos and Limp Bizkit's version of "Total Eclipse Of The Heart." Maybe I just want to be their archivist. I need to get in the entourage somehow.

and yeah Joy Division is better, I just find Fred more fascinating than Ian.

I'm sure in a year or two at most Fred will be having to pay people to be his friend, so you can join and get some money out of it as well!

you probably would have said that two years ago, Ned. And just this year he sucked face with Halle Berry on TV (who I believe was not paid, but forced to do it as part of her contract with Satan). But I think he'll find that no other biographer would be so thorough and willing to listen to his ramblings.

No, then I would have just said he should be boiled in lead.

See, you're not helping your case.

how many wee pop tots checked out Bauhaus after seeing Jonathan Knight wear their shirt?

Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Saturday, 28 February 2004 21:15 (twenty-two years ago)

sorry Jordan Knight
