    I agree to the fact that's its a shame that purist blues musicians don't typical garner the amount of a fan base as other musical genres get [ie Rap/hip hop]

    Who is this referring too, I wonder? Interesting to say the least.


    Boy George.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    "Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx, in misinterpreting the lyrics as coming directly from Dire Straits rather than a character based on a store employee, claimed that the song was about his band, and that the members of Dire Straits were in an electronics store where a row of TVs were all playing Mötley Crüe."
