tbh john carmack hanging out with reznor and williams doesnt seem that odd to me at all!

john kerry and lil kim is my favourite so far

can people actually, like, write who is who? i seriously don't recognise 80% of these people, even the ones i've heard of

Lex, just tried to phone you - BRUNCH?

haha what it comes to when i get messages faster thru ilx than on my phone, which is...on the other side of the room somewhere, and on silent

sadly i'm ill this weekend - just a cold but you really don't want me sneezing all over you today. however i'd be up for some weekday brunch this week?

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Sunday, 5 September 2010 09:54 (thirteen years ago) link

LOL, figured your phone was on silent. We should go for HIGH TEA at Dean Street Townhouse instead because I am obsessed with it. Have things every day this week (I know!!) except for Friday but on Tuesday things might work out - have editor lunch the next day and have to wait in until 5 for a delivery.

(oh hai ILX, welcome to my schedule)

maintenant avec plus de fromage (suzy), Sunday, 5 September 2010 10:01 (thirteen years ago) link

my phone's always on silent! or vibrate, amounts to the same thing at home. texts get noticed quicker as it flashes when they come in. sadly, twitter/email works quickest unless i am genuinely incommunicado.

i've never been to dean st townhouse so YES, definitely up for that. tues will work for me if it works for you, if not raincheck until a quieter and less ill week...

لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Sunday, 5 September 2010 10:05 (thirteen years ago) link

This is a plan. Delivery should take place before 5, so we must do this. They MAKE THEIR OWN SCOTCH EGGS http://www.deanstreettownhouse.com/dining-room/High-Tea/

maintenant avec plus de fromage (suzy), Sunday, 5 September 2010 10:15 (thirteen years ago) link

i love scotch eggs. let's liaise tuesday!

I was gonna go with Peter Sutcliffe, Jimmy Saville and Frank Bruno but I guess that it doesn't really fit the criteria.

doesn't it make you happy to think that an elderly tv star, a working class yorkshireman and a bipolar west indian sportsman can be friends despite their divergent backgrounds

nakhchivan, Sunday, 5 September 2010 12:16 (thirteen years ago) link

xps - yeah, thinking about it, it actually does.

Oh, I see unpredictable johnny rodz had already mentioned this. Anyways. There it is. Great advert for Capital Gold there too.

Brad Pitt and Sinitta! I knew about that, but seem to have ousted it from my mind UNTIL NOW.

Your letter...

But now you've got the chance

Now you've done it...

What in the world brought Courtney Love and Hugo Chavez together?

― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, August 24, 2010 2:41 PM (1 week ago)

It appears that they may have been shooting a PSA for on the dangers of excessive plastic surgery.

http://freakshowbusiness.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/lacrew2.jpg?w=500&h=593

Who are these people? Is the person on the left Mel Gibson? The guy on the right looks like the current King of Sweden when he was younger.

Who's Michael Jackson hanging with?

Tuomas, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:45 (thirteen years ago) link

Hold on, the guy in the last pic is the Aerosmith dude, right?

Tuomas, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:50 (thirteen years ago) link

http://freakshowbusiness.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/lacrew2.jpg?w=500&h=593

Keith Richard, Hall & Oates, Ron Wood
Tina Turner, Mick Jagger, Madonna, Bob Dylan

StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:54 (thirteen years ago) link

xp Steve Rubell (co-owner of Studio 54), MJ, Steven Tyler (of Aerosmith), and Cherie Currie (from The Runaways).

Surely Finland is not THAT culturally isolated?

Ah. Steve Rubell, not Billy Joel then. (Thought that who it was)

StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:57 (thirteen years ago) link

OK from top to bottom:

Tina and RS + Madonna, Bob Dylan and Hall and Oates

Cohen and Taylor Swift

Pete Townsend top R and Eric Clapton and no clue about the others

I do not think the clown is supposed to be famous

Lou Reed, Bob Dylan and Tom Pettey - no clue about dude on right

Guy to M Jackson's right is Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. I don't know about the others.

o sh!t a ˁ˚ᴥ˚ˀ (ENBB), Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:57 (thirteen years ago) link

Ha I thought it was billy joel first too!

The clown is only famous in America: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bozo_the_Clown

StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:58 (thirteen years ago) link

lol'd at Mel Gibson/Lou Reed mixup.

circa1916, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:58 (thirteen years ago) link

Thanks! I had no idea who Cherie Currie or Steve Rubell were, I just thought it's just MJ and Tyler with some random people. And Hall & Oates is just a name to me, I didn't know what they look like. I guess I should've recognized Madonna, but she looks kinda unfamiliar in that pic.

Tuomas, Sunday, 5 September 2010 19:59 (thirteen years ago) link

Ha I thought Ron Wood was Geddy Lee.

Yeah, it's the early Madonna look.

StanM, Sunday, 5 September 2010 20:00 (thirteen years ago) link

Is the person on the left Mel Gibson?

That's Lou Reed, and sitting next to him it Bob Dylan. Seated in front of them is Tom Petty, and...

The guy on the right looks like the current King of Sweden when he was younger.

...the guy standing is Randy Newman.
