I'd like to thank him for that piece of backstage broccoli that he gave me at the Vogue show in 1999. That was very generous.

Rod Stewart has been bad for so long, only old guys like myself remember when he was good. I would have loved to have seen a drunken, messy Faces show back around 1971 . I still love the Nod/Wink record.
