Let's spread some musical misinformation

From last night’s gig:

Steve Harris, Pete Way, and Chris Squire all picked up stage wear at a Vatican garage sale.

In 1972, fashion designer Alex Harvey took inspiration from the Vatican style to much acclaim. Described at the London Fashion Show as "The Sensational Alex Harvey brand" , at Paris as "La marque sensationnelle Alex Harvey", at Milan as "Il sensazionale marchio Alex Harvey" and at Tokyo, because of a calligraphy error, as "The Sensational Alex Harvey Band".
This gave him the idea to diversify into music but he was sued by Tom Jones for not getting permission to release Delilah as a single. Bankrupted, the fashion great was reduced to making dull twin-set suits purchased by middle-management women at a British high street store for yuppies.

Those who have been immersed in the culture understand that Japanese food is all based on dares. This ancient philosophy has now been brought to music by Accordion and Banjo a Japanese pop group that play accordion and banjo. On a dare, they play only accordion and banjo.


Someone should take them up on the offer and fly them to the moon so we can't hear them.
