cassandra 0 Posted July 12, 2005 Cassandra, unplug the juke box and do us all a favour... Ok, if you aren't actually going to say anything intelligable...I don't see the point. By the by, some things never loose their flavor and the Adam and the Ants fall under that heading. For Chewie... Yes "Kings of the Wild Frontier" did include the track of "Killer in the home".

Octopus of Odstock 2,197 Posted September 12, 2006 Adam Ant Superb article in the Times about his past, present & future. There isn't a photo in the online version, but there is in the print version. In short, it doesn't look like he'll die soon. In fact, now, especially as he's lost weight, he looks if he's in his 30's! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted September 13, 2006 Indeed, a damn good read. He's still 'not right in't heed' mind, so a watching brief might pay off if he loses his medication for a few days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,141 Posted April 22, 2010 Looking well at the Malcolm McLaren funeral which sounds like a most enjoyable event. Wish I'd known about the 'moment of mayhem' - I was in either B&Q or Lidl at the time, what fun I could have had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wish I'd known about the 'moment of mayhem' - I was in either B&Q or Lidl at the time, what fun I could have had. Fun! The mayhem didn't materialise, BBC PM show described it as lots of television crews training their lenses on a handful of middle aged punks who didn't do much. Those punks are the same mob who parade around Camden looking like it's 1982 (i.e. when the Mohicans were in full-force and sporting 'Punk's Not Dead' slogans on their leather jackets), and charge a few quid for photos with tourists.

Death Watch Beatle 41 Posted May 16, 2010 That nice Mr. Goddard tells a hall full of Christians to "Fuck Off!" Today the Oasis Centre, Portsmouth, tomorrow the Treatment Centre, Rampton? DWB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Monoclinic 39 Posted May 16, 2010 That nice Mr. Goddard tells a hall full of Christians to "Fuck Off!" Today the Oasis Centre, Portsmouth, tomorrow the Treatment Centre, Rampton? DWB Firstly how on Earth can anyone spend TWO WEEKS holidaying in Portsmouth? Adam, 55, real name Stuart Goddard, was due to play a 30-minute set at the Oasis Centre in the town - where he has been holidaying for the past two weeks - to raise money for starving children in the Phillipines. Secondly what was that thing about forgiveness and Christianity again? I think the Oasis centre may need reminding. Or is it one of those multifaith thingies that can pick and choose the best bits? 'The Oasis centre is a religious venue and most of the crowd were devout Christians. He will never be welcomed back.' Anyway, two weeks. Jesus, the guy must still be crazy.

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted May 20, 2010 Today the Oasis Centre, Portsmouth, tomorrow the Treatment Centre, Rampton? Nearly DWB! Sectioned under the Mental Health Act. Ant fans - please send me postcards at the Chelsea & Westminster Hospital, Fulham Road. Please don't come down here as it may upset the staff who have been really pleasant. I am having a well earned rest at Her Majesty's Pleasure and am painting and continuing being an art student. I have a great view and am considering gigs later in the year.

Windsor 2,233 Posted May 20, 2010 Well, if telling groups of Christians to f**k off merits being locked up under the mental health act I suppose I had better pop off to commit myself... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,647 Posted April 12, 2011 The Antster has been added to this year's Hard Rock Calling event in Hyde Park, not exactly top of the bill anymore, but it's still a presigious gig for the likes of him. Central London, mid-summer and a massive crowd. If he wants to do a few warm up gigs first, maybe Barking would be an appropriate location. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
time 8,610 Posted April 12, 2011 The Antster has been added to this year's Hard Rock Calling event in Hyde Park, not exactly top of the bill anymore, but it's still a presigious gig for the likes of him. Central London, mid-summer and a massive crowd. If he wants to do a few warm up gigs first, maybe Barking would be an appropriate location. I was talking to someone a couple of months ago who'd done some work for Mr Ant. He's quite relaxed and laid back these days by her account, as well as a nice guy. ... if you can believe a friend of a friend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YoungWillz 21,050 Posted November 12, 2016 Adam Ant always seemed so fit back in the day and I'm not sure how he is doing these days. Anyone have any information?
