Wasn't Lol Tolhurst kept in The Cure just so Robert Smith could belittle him?

Adam Clayton from U2 (who were great, at one point).

My siblings and I had an ongoing obsession with his uselessness when we were kids. Those were the days.

I like them but they're still useless. I had a blocked drain and they just shrugged their shoulders.


PooPeeTaste  said about 1 year ago:

What a pack of useless cunts. I regret ever sticking up for them. I am such a sucker.


fowltonmeans  said about 1 year ago:

Andrew Ridgely was not a very important member of Wham!
I mean, all jokes aside, he was not musically a big contributor.
I'm not saying he wasn't a valid part of the concept.

But you know you have to hand it to the facilitators. A lot of good things wouldn't happen without them.


GnomeChomsky  said about 1 year ago:

What did John Oates actually contribute to Hall & Oates other than to make Daryl Hall look better? It's a genuine question!


fowltonmeans  said about 1 year ago:

He was the guitarist and co-wrote many songs
