Re: Biggest Royalty Scams

If this were the 1950's and Andy Summers was a poor black undereducated sharecropper's son, I'd be sympathetic. But at this point, I'm kinda sick of this shit. And that goes for you too, Levon.

Late bloomer here.

Here is an interesting factoid I learned about Ray Davies recently. His surname is pronounced DAVIS not Davees.
Something to do with it being the way the Welsh pronounce it. Perhaps thats where his forbears are from?

Hell no... if the hipster had been invented in 1983, they would have been included in the song. I mean they were, but the name hadnt been invented. Plus, you know, The Clean represent!
