Heard this yesterday on Planet Rock.
Rob Bernie, mid-morning jock, was bemoaning the 'inapproriate support act' on the current AC DC tour of these islands. The Answer are right enough, good journeyman rockers, but the middle act - Subway? - were, apparently, in severe danger of getting canned off (metaphorically of course; you can't take actual tinnies into a gig here in Nanny-state Britain).
Realising he may have dented the expectations of that evening's Hampden Park crowd, Bernie made amends.
'Of course, that's not to say that some time after 8pm tonight you lot in Hampden Park won't hear the monstrous screech of that Runaway Train, and, for the best part of the next two hours, your faces will melt.'
Face-melting metal. Reminds me of SP at the Motorhead soundcheck ...
And, yes, a little more sympathy for your colonial masters would be appreciated
