Best book I've read recently...

<img src="http://www.blurtalk.com/images/BIT%20OF%20A%20BLUR%20by%20ALEX%20JAMES.jpg"></src>

Alex James' autobiography, <i>bit of a blur</i>.

He did all the naughty things pop stars should do, and loved every minute of it. My personal favorites:

* selecting the 5 prettiest fans in Sao Paolo and bringing them upstairs for an all-night romp interrupted only by breaks for more drugs & champagne

* drunkenly locking his wife out of their house, climbing the stairs, opening the upstairs window, and peeing on her head

* being driven around Atlanta at top speeds in a souped up sportscar by a red-hot, tequila-swigging ex-girlfriend (yes, <i>girl</i>friend, allegedly) of Michael Stipe's

He's a Dorset boy, by the way. Blur = totally fake cockneys.

Epoisses, what was your britpop haiku again?

It's my understanding that Stipe has always been bi-sexual. He brought a girlfriend to the Hall of Fame induction this past March.

I stand corrected. Thanks, Superbum!
