Saddam a go go is a great song. You could also post Jack The World from B and B.

I have seen GWAR 3 times, all between 1998 and 2001. Always a good show... I think the highlight was the one time they pulled Marylin Manson out of a giant toilet and ripped his skin off.

It was more performance art than music, and i don't think they ever got as much credit as they deserved for how smart and creative they were.

Spoiler:
Rodas was driving at more than 100 miles per hour when he crashed his Porsche carrying friend and Hollywood star Paul Walker.
The report suggests that both drivers had been killed before the flames overtook the vehicle.

Both driver and passenger were found in a defensive position, with Walker having a broken jawbone, collarbone, pelvis ribs and spine.

Rodas died very quickly from severe blunt head, neck and chest trauma.
Sorry for the self-quote. CHP has completed the investigation into the crash that killed Paul Walker and Roger Rodas. I don't like that the lede implies the car belonged to Walker, but it is interesting that the owner had never replaced the tires that came on the car from the factory.
Paul Walker's Porsche had outdated tires at time of fatal crash
An earlier L.A. County coroner's report had pegged the speed at more than 100 mph, but the traffic analysis determined that it was a bit slower. That analysis was based on markings the vehicle left known as yaw marks, which occur when a driver steers sharply.

Using the road marks, investigators determined that the Porsche's speed was 80.59 mph to 93.97 mph. That would mean that the red 2005 Porsche Carrera GT, driven by Walker's friend Roger Rodas, was traveling about twice the 45 mph limit on Hercules Street when it crashed Nov. 30.
This sort of doubles down on the tragedy. Working with Michelin, Porsche developed new tires for the Carrera GT to improve cornering stability and lateral load bearing performance. The tires were introduced in August 2013, about three months prior to this crash.

That's going to crush any publicity John Pinette would've gotten. RIP to both of them.

Bob Geldof and Paula Yates had the first few kids. Paula Yates left Bob and took up with Michael Hutchence of INXS.

Paula died of a drug overdose.

Michael died of autoerotic asphyxiation.

It sounds like she's never gotten over her mom's death.
