I was genuinely mystified as to who she was when someone was posting about her on FB the other day. Like, I know I play the "what popular TV, me?" card over-ham a lot, but this was f'real, I was like, wow there is some loop I am way out of" - but it appeaers all shes been on is daytime TV, and FM radio, which'd explain it.

john faine on the wireless before on the greg ham tip, "we'll talk about a man who was responsible for songs that were part of the aussie vernacular", it's obviously awful what's happened to him but raking over someone's depression and alcoholism and bigging him up as a genius for playing on two big hits (one basically a novelty) is seriously NAGL

John Faine is spectacularly annoying I have come to realise, and Im a fan of left wing talk radio. But geez he is sanctimonious. And he always takes over ppls stories and tells his own! Fuckin.

He ran a guest lecture in my media degree in the '90s and was really impressive cf. the smug jock he is now.

Newton goin' ham. AGAIN. Second or third time in a week now?

Wait no, theyre just re-reporting the same incident a week later just to confuse me.

fix it with like some music glue (Trayce), Monday, 23 April 2012 22:07 (fourteen years ago)

i idly wondered the other day if 'going ham' might take on a new meaning in the light of the greg ham thing but it was decided by all that it might be "too soon"

Have they said what did for him, yet? Seemed like an OD on armchair guess.

Yeah I misread too, this *is* second time since he's been in Miami. As well as the current court action here for earlier shenaigans. Poor bastard. He's clearly p ill.

At least he's taking the appropriate steps to deal with it.
