Back in the day, my girlfriend worked with Chris's girlfriend and one night the 4 of us went out for drinks together at Crash Palace. He was the kindest, most well-mannered rocker I've ever met!
Ok so 2 things come to mind reading ur gimp comment..For 1 he wasn’t even the singer for New Order… 2nd the tickets were like 35$ so money was def not a motive… Tell me are you a musician? Or one of the many Jerks who listen to music And believe they have the audacity to critique? ?!?
The commenters lamenting this line up need to go back to Pigface school. Charles Levi on bass alone gets you sent to the principal's office. Mary Byker and Dirk Flannigan get you a detention each. Bob Dog gets you expelled immediately and Curse Mackey gets you grounded for eternity. You dorks probably can't even spell FOOK right!
I'm from Portland and have had to endure these insufferable frauds for decades now. Their music is so deeply fucking mediocre...lowest common denominator pop drivel.
Robby, you wrote "Light My Fire", Jim Morrison and Ray Manzarak and the drummer and you made a band become an icon for the world. What on earth are you doing dying your hair white and looking like a ghost rider instead of the dude who penned some of the greatest rock songs ever written? As a tribute to Jim and Ray, look like an artist, Robby, not a retired person.
Silly question; Robbie's 78 now and many or even most people that age have silver or white hair! If you've seen him interviewed you'd realize that his hair has been that shade for MANY years now. Also, as one of the greatest songwriters guitarists in Rock, Robbie has more than earned the right to dress however he damn well pleases! And lastly, what;s wrong with being a retired person at 78?!
@@jonkaplan5243 GGGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. You're right of course and why I cling to my opinions like they were made of gold even surprises me at times. But I have got nothing against white hair, I just think it does not make people on stage look better. President Biden would look better without white hair too; in his debate with Trump he looked decades older than his rival and they are only three years apart. Also, we have to remember that when young people see a rock star on stage with white hair, it's sort of a turn-off and they tune out because it means older person. Lastly, the thing is that people live more and more well into their 90s and look good with white hair, that's where if fits in my mind...
