Bobby Conn

Saw this guy last night (for the 2nd time)... seeing him again today at Reading. Bobby Conn fucking rocks. A "Judeo-Christian edutainer" indeed. The TRUE antichrist superstar. In tights.

Think 70s Bowie, but more apocalyptic.

Anyone else a fan?

Some of my friends in Leicester undertook a commando mission to sneak into this lame "BBC music live" thing purely to see Bobby Conn, but security got in the way, so, er, no, never actually seen or heard him, though people frequently say "Have you heard of Bobby Conn? He's completely insane!" which is probably a good thing.

Loooooving the Bobby Conn. In a year of great rock albums (that being 2001), I thought that The Golden Age was the highly underrated basement-shackled stepchild of the bunch. I got my rock on to that shit way more than I did to any of that Strokes stuff. I mean, "Winners" is the rock song of last year. Am I wrong? Bobbo distills all that is bombastic and yet great about the rock music and slices off thick slabs to whack you upside your head with. And you're loving every minute of it...yeah-uh.

He fucking rocked a snow leopard's ass at Reading, too. Only complaint- neither time did he play "United Nations (Under the Rule of Satan)". Still. You can't have it all. (And he was very nice to my dog the other day, too.)
