That is sad news about steve brown, having produced some bona fide manics classics.

Read somewhere today that Sean moved to Huddersfield. Immediately felt both proud (hurrah, my home town!) and sorry (I hope he’s managed to move to the elusive “nice part of town,” wherever that is).
Then spotted this from a while ago. https://www.facebook.com/78444603837...367747097/?d=n Fair enough.

Actually, doing a bit of a search seems it's almost three years ago he moved here (apologies that it's from the Sun) https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbi...-quit-smoking/

That's a bit of a shock about sean and i've kept up with manics news for the most part but i guess like everyone else here i don't consider the sun to be worthy loo paper let alone adequate reading material.

Can't Get You Out of My Head by Adam Curtis. 8 hours of Bobbie Searls, Yeltsin, Narcissism and Nixon. And Mao! It's a smorgasbord of manics influences

Aww if that is the case it is a bit sad. Eyebrow piercing. Tattoo? Midlife crisis? However I have the utmost respect and liking for Sean so I will leave his private life to being just that.
