Nicky Wire is getting a lifelong honorary fellowship of Swansea University. Fair enough, no problem from me about that.

But, hang on, they're going to interrupt the gig to give him this?

I mean, try giving one to Pete Townsend or Keith Richards and see what happens. Interrupt the gig? are they NUTS?

Yes.

I mean, "Prizegiving day" at school was always faintly embarassing to any 'cool' kid that happened to win one.

But the Manics are making it part of their GIG?

it's hilarious. but maybe getting an university degree is the secret aspiration of every "angry" rocker.
(the banana suit would have been better).
