    Yeah, there was another story about them being on a plane that was hijacked and he gave out to one of the sons for calling the hijacker a cnut or something! Legend!

    I remember the story whereby he intervened to protect cabin crew from a guy that went crazy on a flight to Africa, didn't read about the giving out to son bit though.

    What about Brian Eno, I think he qualifies also.

    Christopher Walken has to be one of the coolest motherfcukers to ever walk the earth and seems to always come across that way, pretty much ever since we seen him playing Russian Roulette way back in 1978.

    Yeah, I'm going to quote Ian McCulloch on this one.

    "Freddie Mercury wanted to bring opera to the working classes. What a c.unt "

    Also Queen played Sun City during the apartheid era.

    Think that may have been Paul Weller that said that.

    And, while we're on the subject, Paul Weller.
