Not wicked
Posted on | July 25, 2008 | 40 Comments
I just saw a bloke who looked exactly like Chris Isaak and I was reminded of his video for Wicked Game.
Can you imagine the creatives pitching ideas to him?
“So Chris, we’re thinking you with a guitar, looking a bit lonely, maybe mysterious clouds or a rich sunset. It’ll be awesome”.
“Well, I’m thinking of snogging a topless supermodel in the california surf”.
“You win”.

I saw Patrick Bergin but there were no topless ladies in his vicinity. Later that year I saw a guy who looked like Patrick Bergin and you wont believe this but there were no topless ladies near him either. Fuck it.

I had to look this song up on YouTube because I didn’t know it.

Chris Isaak was in silence of the lambs. The crazy fucker.
July 25th, 2008 @ 6:42 pm
That was our wedding song.
True story.
I had misunderstood the lyrics.
July 25th, 2008 @ 6:44 pm
How can you not know the song, MB? You must have been in a far, far away place for the few years during and after its release.
I had a similar but less coincidental experience with McGyver. I was at a comedy gig on the balconey and he was downstairs. I really wanted to go tell him of my love of both Mcgyver and Stargate (mostly Stargate). I worked myself up to accost him, me and my cousin went to check him out – we did a walk by wen he was at the bar, and ups close e was SO not McGyver.
I know that doesn’t sound great written down, but it was funny at the time.If it had been me, Iwould have had to go tell Chris Isaak of te amazing co-incidencec.

Hmm, apologies for the typos. I even corrected the last one and then did it again. Nur.

Damien Rice makes jolly good acoustic music, don’t you think?
July 25th, 2008 @ 7:16 pm
what do you think about ac dc for those
about to cock we salute you.

Crikey, was that the Christiansen girl. She could have had me if she had played her cards right. A bit of a cheese lover they reckon…
…oh, you’re ahead of me, aren’t you? :-)

I told Johnny Depp once (thinking he was just a punter and not actually him) that he was the spitting image of himself. I was very drunk. As soon as I said it, Ronnie Wood who I was chatting to, then introduced me properly to him. I got my coat but not before I told him that if he touched my girlfriend, I’d bleedin burst him. I don’t think he realised I was joking.

I once cornered Jack L at a party, and terrified the life out of him by pretending I was a Traveller, and that I was convinced he was one too.
Yes, I’m easily amused.

i once meet david gilmour from pink floyd
very cool guy we had lots of pints and he
told all about the reason they create most
of their music.
July 25th, 2008 @ 10:27 pm
It wasn’t for the money by any chance, was it tommi?
July 25th, 2008 @ 10:57 pm
no,this song talks about greed,are you greedy balls?
July 25th, 2008 @ 10:59 pm
MB, well done for the Jack L one. I actually roared out of a window at him once. He was standing in a roof garden of a building with John Rocca for some reason. I shouted “You’re a fake and Georgie boy is a rip off you cunt”.

tomminorthern, I think you’ve been had. The real Dave Gilmour is a pompous middle-class twit with a high-pitched voice, and a wonky leg.
He also has a hunchback, but it’s not real. It’s just for storing the money-off coupons he cuts out of magazines.
I see him nearly every morning meself, trying to bunk onto the bus without paying his fare.

That’s a lot of famous people, Hm. Sigh, Johnny Depp. Sigh. He probably did get it, he’s quietly funny, his sense of humour’s not v American.
A friend of a friend was hanging out with him when he was shooting that film with Marlon Brando, in Cork. This guy had done some acid, and was freaking out, and JD drove round West Cork in the middle of the night with him, talking him down.
He’s not like a normal human, Johnny Depp, he’s more than the rest of us.
July 26th, 2008 @ 3:04 am
Well Johnny Depp did hang out with Hunter Thompson, so was probably well versed in dealing with freaked out dope fiends..
Holemaster, you forgot to end your message(17) with;
“which was nice..”
July 26th, 2008 @ 7:33 am
i love a ride in the sand, rough enough on the glans, must be worse for the ladies..
July 26th, 2008 @ 7:36 am
thank fuck that morgor seems to have stopped posting , he’s one ugally mo-fo. Mr. 20 , could you put an “ugly” filter on the photos that accompant posts / postings ?
July 26th, 2008 @ 8:49 am
You feel discomfitted by his intense rapist stare do you, kev2? morgor loves you all…
July 26th, 2008 @ 10:04 am
Kev 2, you are mistaken,- <bmorgor runs things ’round here, not ‘Mr 20′. Tell him you were only messing, and that you like his hair or something. Otherwise there’ll be Hell to pay!
I have a solution for you.
Just update to the latest version of Firefox. Came out two days ago I think, and it doesn’t like Gravatars.
I like Gravatars, and I miss them. All I get are little white boxes.
(morgor, do you moisturise?)
July 26th, 2008 @ 11:06 am
That’s pretty nice of JD Jo. He did seem pretty cool when I met him even though he was blurry and at a 45 degree angle most of the time. Ronnie Wood was nice to talk to too. He had been banging on the jacks door earlier while I was installed. He saying “arry up”. So RW had a plop straight after me. Or actually maybe a line, not a plop.
Also saw David Soul in the Clarence, he waved but I ignored him.
July 26th, 2008 @ 11:22 am
Twenty Twenty! FCS has broken out of the pound! He’s on the loose and it’s looking ugly.
July 26th, 2008 @ 11:23 am
Maggot! Monkey Balls, Jo, SAm!!! SG! We need all the hands we can use…
July 26th, 2008 @ 11:42 am
Oh my God! I’m all alone in here with this mad man…… it’s getting bloody…..ahhhhh
July 26th, 2008 @ 11:45 am
If…. only…… I ……..could……. reach…… that……. knife…..
You’re right Twenty, it’s all FAT no cock…..
July 26th, 2008 @ 12:01 pm
I don’t remember you actually asking me a question, apart from ‘Am I greedy?’
I was convinced you were joking. Of course I’m not greedy. Anyone who’s ever met me will tell you that.
As a matter of fact, I guarantee that I’ll give you one long before you get the fuckin’ chance to give me one. Up your’s you cunt!
July 26th, 2008 @ 12:07 pm
I have two arseholes anyway Fatso.
Anyway, I’ve escaped through a narrow gap in the internet.
July 26th, 2008 @ 12:17 pm
Some people are just sad cunts.
July 26th, 2008 @ 12:40 pm
he’s one ugally mo-fo.
My mom says i’m handsome.
morgor, do you moisturise?
Just my forehead, to get that rapist gleam.
July 26th, 2008 @ 1:06 pm
Some people are just sad cunts.
Yes, but the weekend would be dull without them.
-Having said that, I’m a sad cunt meself sometimes, so if you just meant me, cheers! Thanks for the mention.
