I was being facetious. I mean, it's only rock and roll. Doesn't matter who
sponsors it anymore. Move out of clubland and it becomes the logical
extension of the circus, now, innit? Any resemblance to rebellion was lost
ages ago. It's all just about hype anymore, and a perfectly lucrative way
to make a living if you'd rather fit in with the people who wear tattoos
rather than the people who wear coats and ties.
