    If you could remove one person from the past/present

    who would it be and why?

    for me i'd pick

    Nathan Gale-he shot Darrell Abbot(Dimebag) guitarist for Pantera and damageplan

    I'd remove Dimebag Darrell. Then I wouldn't have all those people, most of whom had no idea who he was in the first place, going on about him being killed and how he was this and that!

    He wasn't John Lennon, get over it!

    Let's face it here, Damageplan's album got bad reviews and sold, in total, 150k copies before he died.

    Not that many people gave a sh*t about him then! Pantera were gona and nobody gave a sh*t about him! Then he dies and he's God! Not God enough for people to buy his music though!

    Excelent choice. Dimebag was a legend.


    I'd probably kill that mark chapman fella who shot john lennon. Only reason i would do it is because I cant stand the beatles and would love for john lennon to live and sell out majorly.

    He was in The Beatles, a band who had nice haircuts, wore nice suits and recycled motown hits to sell shed loads of records in the early 60s.

    I think he had pretty much sold out already!

    There was one funny moment in the entire show. One moment, in a show that seemed to have run for a billion seasons.

    Retarded one: [Opening and closing fridge door to waste electricity. Glances inside.] Woah, I gotta buy some food.

    Everything else was the stick figure screaming like a banshee, the retarded one not getting anything, the dinosaur dude being an even bigger loser than I am, the only one that still has a career doing apparently nothing, the blondie chick talking about ghosts or something and the one with the massive head saying "Blargha blarh blah" all the time. I could edit the entire run using random clips to make an episode.

    Boyzone weren't sellouts, they had nothing to betray, similar with the Beatles

    people would be praying to some other self professed dude from them times who was a good sales man and the times version of David Blaine-or we'd all be lacking in the foreskin department..


    I'd personally pick Maggie Thatcher-what a Cnut.

    Probably Gavrillo Princip. Asssassinated the the Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 and began a chain of events that led to World War 1 and consequently World War 2.

    But then I guess we wouldn't have as such fancy technology today if we hadn't had both those wars so I don't know maybe Jedward on second thoughts.

    If you honestly think John Lennon had no talent, then I dispair even more for the Dimebag nut-huggers!

    Nope, I have it completely correct! Whilst I can see what you're saying about The Rolling Stones, there's no getting past the fact that, before The Beatles became THE most important band of all time, they started out as a rent-a-band in Liverpool and then Germany, who played covers on stage every night. And then went onto release albums choc full of cover versions (along with originals too of course).

    Their first 2 albums, Please Please me and With The Beatles, had 6 cover versions each. That's a lot by any standard.

    By the way, i wasn't having a go. I'm a massive Beatles fan. But facts are facts!

    eh, rolling stones first album or two were cover albums aswell. read keith richards book, all he did was play along to blues records for years. Their second single was a beatles song.

    Yup, a frankly horrible version of "I Wanna Be Your Man". it wasn't a cover though, it was written for them by Lennon and McCartney.

    But yeah, even the Stones' originals were recycled copies of blues songs. Super stuff though :)
