Spade_Cooley 9,365 Posted March 11, 2013 After a six-month spell that has seen him battle bleeding ulcers, Barrett's oesophagus and anaemia, history's second most famous racist vegetarian has now had to cancel gigs due to pnumonia in both lungs. It'd be a shame if Stevie took his bow without there being a DL thread for him, so let's have one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
