I was close though, right?

Well, it's Alice Cooper, so naturally it had to be in the thread.

yes, Alice Cooper arguably king of this thread

This strikes me as weird as it's not a party or backstage somewhere... Phil Lynott, Robert Plant, Eric Clapton

Where's Graham Gouldman?

Actually, I saw a little Pete Townshend show a few years back, and he told a story about the one - one! - time he ever spoke with Bob Dylan. So maybe it is kinda weird!

The anecdote Pete sometimes tells is of Bob coming up to him backstage after a 1969 Who show and saying, "Pete, I'd like to stay, but I've got another appointment."

But they've apparently met again since:

Pete said he asked Dylan something like "what makes someone a folk singer?" and Dylan's response was I think "a good memory."

Wouldn't expect to see Plant hanging with Ronstadt:

Or Bolan:

But snogging Collins? Sure:

Don't ask me how I know this, but the guy wearing the big necktie is Beau Bridges.

Not sure this makes me "happy", but Courtney Love tweeted this photo of her having dinner with Mariah Carey and Brett Ratner just now

curly hair mariah always makes me happy

psyched for brett ratner's reboot of rush hour with mariah and courtney as the leads

Al Gore clearly the one taking the photo.

holy shit is that Brando and Selassie upthread

not really, but...

http://superartbusiness.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Beefheart.jpg

seems beefheart was a wyndham lewis fan

Brando/Selassie only made better by Brando being dressed as Napoleon.

Beefheart The Hands of Fate

Beefhearts The Beefhearts of Fate

something like that.

to quote lewis:

as to the trick of prosody, the method of conveying the matter,
frankly I shall provoke the maximum of saxophone clatter

Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger

But that's completely expected!

I know Dylan's short but you would have thought they could find him a mike stand with the right height.

But that's completely expected!

Bruce's crotch was what I meant re "in your face," of course.

A cheat, but...

Run-DMC and some hair metal guy?

that's joey ramone, the best fedora salesman east of the Mississippi

the Mississippi is a large river in the United States

"east of the Mississippi" is a reference to the territory of the United States east of the Mississippi, which is a large river

I had a wee bet with mysely on whether Tuomas would ask about "Run DMC with some hairy guy" or "Joey Ramone with some black guys".

I lost.

*myself

Had no idea Joey Ramone was from Alabama. It would explain this:
