i actually like their music, but fuck.
I did this once, to some dude's jeep. Had a considerable amount of booze to help me along. Beth is showing all the signs of being a long-term star- emerging as the White Stripes understudy with credible southern roots, now as disco superdyke. Next phase should be coming along in about 24 months.

I'm totally sure this didn't happen, Bditto isn't the sort of person who'd make up self-aggrandising stories with teenage "look at me i'm shocking" rhetoric to get herself into the gossip columns.

What's more offensive: Beth Ditto puking over young people or people puking over the sight of Beth Ditto's vagina?
Personally, both these scenarios cause me to lose the will to live.

I can't speak for present-day rock superstar Beth, but I went up and talked to her after a show in 2003 or so and told her how much the band had meant to me personally, etc., and she was totally nice/polite/sweet about it. That's about all I ask out of my rock idols. So fuck the haters!

This sounds good:
Beth Ditto, Andy Rourke from The Smiths, Graham Coxon, Paul Weller and The Enemy are amongst the acts who have formed an indie supergroup called Crisis.
The charity of the same name has joined forces with Drinkaware to raise money to fight homelessness and alcoholism.
Also in the group are New Young Pony Club, Supergrass, Drew from Babyshambles, Ed Harcourt and Pearl Lowe.

Just saw them here. Most enthusiastic audience of any show I've seen here, massive screaming and armwaving. BD had a bad cold and could hardly sing -- crowd pitched in, knowing all words to all songs.
Not as good as the room-melting show they put on two years ago (when BD didn't have a cold) and the sound was somehow wrong (so that e.g. the bass was lost in "Listen Up") but still worth leaving the house for.
Ditto seems like a very nice young woman.

New single "Perfect World" is out today. Currently listening on super crappy headphones, so I can't really decide whether I like it or not. New album in May.

It's a Xenomania production, BTW. Maybe I'm biased but it reminds me a bit of the stuff they did for Frank, only with more punch, perhaps? Definitely the "rockiest" thing they've ever done.
