He talked about living on Mustique part of the year, and when he was in prison in the UK (Wormwood Scrubs) for publishing the controversial magazine "Oz." Courtney was pretty calm (for her) and seemed to behave, although Steve had to reprimand her because her knee was "touching his doo-dad." She is headlining a show at the Wiltern in L.A.

So the show ran a bit late, til about 20 after 2, maybe 2:30.Once again the subject of caning came up and Simon told a story about how he was caned by a teacher for smoking a cigarette at school when he was 15!Jonesy mentioned how he was singled out by airport security in Vegas last year.

Jonesy's back from vacation. Spent the first few days "driving around and listening to meself on the radio", then finally went to San Francisco on Friday with a friend. Haight-Ashbury is a "dump", the Ameoba in Hollywood is better than the one in SF,strip clubs there ain't what they used to be and admiring the starfish and kelp off the coast of Monterey on the way back was a highlight.
Captain Sensible of the Damned was the guest for the second hour. We learn that "Brighton is the gay capital of England". It also is the home of lots of music celebs, such as the Captain, Baby Spice, Robert Smith, etc.The Damned groupies tend to be dominatrix types & the Captain has a thing for S/M, which all started via spankings from a pretty PE teacher back in his school days. Jonesy is not into the dominatrix thing "I don't like women touching me that way." Cliff Richard is a wanker who said nasty things about the Damned on a Brit TV show,. This was one of Jonesy's best interviews.

Last day for "3-fers." For the first time in weeks, Jonesy mentioned his admiration for "bubble butts." He also went into one of his wistful speeches about growing older. There was a mention of Joy Division that delved into a general discussion about suicide, but I didn't catch the details. And they played my favorite "ding-dong"- "I dunno. Sometimes you sound really depressed, then you sound really happy and you make screeching sounds and I'm at work and I have to turn the radio down. I think you're a confused old man but you're very cute."

"I never won anything in me life," Sez Steve of the LA weekly award. Said he might give it to Rodney "so he could put it his apartment with all his other stuff." (If you saw "The Mayor Of Sunset Strip, you'll get that reference.) He then told a story how his uncle fixed a contest so his mum and dad would win a fridge at Tesco. He also talked about how he stole cymbals from some club and hid 'em underneath his overcoat. Later that evening, the bouncers caught him peeping in the ladies room and they proceeded to hold him upside down over the side of the building. Didn't drop him, though.
