Paul Bearer 6,102 Posted May 4, 2011 Bazza caused a ripplette of excitement when he dropped by our building's reception for a guest slot on the One Show yesterday. Several of my colleagues were treated for mild glare. I saw him performing on the One Show. He looked like a singing praying mantis... Saw him perform in Vegas 2008*. Quite lively and chipper. Can't see him poping off too soon. * There goes what little street cred I had. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,655 Posted May 4, 2011 I caught the end of his performance last night on the One Show. I didn't notice much between his top lip and forehead actually moving, obviously he'll need to stay bright and chipper if he's forking out for plastic surgery on that scale.

Phantom 2,534 Posted February 12, 2016 He has been rushed to hospital in LA One Last Time, One Last Tour is his final live tour, taking in the UK and North America. It is scheduled to end on 23 June at the O2 Arena in London. So does that mean that subsequent tours are going to happen when he's dead? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I count myself amongst those who would consider that a major improvement in the sonic quality of the performance. Other views are available. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PM on Radio Four did the same gag (so respect to them) they got their religious correspondent to confirm the Pope was a Catholic and quoted a life-long expert on bear behaviour on their bathroom habits! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
