Call me sick if you wish, Meggypoo, but what type of poo is this, Meggy???? (donkey?)

CONGRATS TO EVERYONE ON THE OCCASION OF RO's 10TH ANNIVERSARY!!!!!! AND THANKS TO THE UNHOLY TRINITY!!!!!!!

I'm pretty new, really, and sadly I missed LJ and gypsy's mastercoup (is there a link, LJ???) but I still  chose two memorable moments, one favourite post and one favourite poster.

Worst: the day one of my jokes got very misunderstood, and I got beaten the shit out of (metaphorically speaking, of course) by absolutely every American on this board, the "gangleader" being the lying sleaze-ball Tele, of all people! Does anyone still remember him?????

Best: Gazza and GTRM on tour in Lisbon , with loads of live footage, interviews, photos  and video-clips masterly helped onto the website by PDM, Egon and LJ! It was almost as good as being there, what a fantastic thread that was, it really made my heart smile....

Still the funniest, and my absolute favourite post of all times was Nellcote saying:  "...Mick Taylor???.......aah.....now I remember....the one that looks like Elizabeth Taylor..." It still cracks me up every time I remember.

And, if we're giving a prize to the most "artistic" poster, then I think it should go to pdog, his dancing asian girl will live on in my husband's memory forever...

PS: I must be allowed another newbie question on the occasion of an anniversary: WHAT THE FUCK IS THE NICK NOLTE THING ABOUT??? The pictures, the references, etc???? Is there a connection with Joey?

Four words:

SLOTS RULE, YOU BASTARDS!!!!!

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THE NICK NOLTE THING ABOUT??? The pictures, the references, etc???? Is there a connection with Joey?"

That would be my doing!

I saw that mugshot way back when and I fell apart.

When Nolte got busted, he was driving all over the road and the cop stopped him and arrested him.
Apparently he was drooling all over himself - turns out, not only was he drunk but he also had a date rape drug (gbh??) in him.  So the dude was planning on slipping someone a mickey and got the ol' switcharoo pulled on him.

Anyway, the picture is worth a million words and so "pulling a Nolte" became the thing around here.

I mean seriously -- look at that pic again!!
The shirt
The hair
The frown

this thread is outstanding!!!!!!!!!!

I've spent 5 1/2 years in this Asylum.

Jo...I doubt there is a link to our hijinx but I "played" Joey while gyps "played" jb. It was pretty classic if I do say so myself.

And you can also thank Nanky for:

Chiba Chariot Rides
The sheep fetish
Pre-Summit Chiba Alerts
Tardrite Helmets
Howe can this Happen?
Beers for Lunch threads.

lmfao.

Clearly most of us have NO lives to speak of.

LJ.

Howe many of you remember the daily afternoon and Friday night chats in the old chatroom?
More gossip, lies, secrets and confessions were strewn across numerous keyboards!  70% of the contributions were from jb himself!

Was it Max or Riffy that compiled a drunken Christmas poem?
(Funnier than hell...btw)

And for the love of god - SS should have had, "Go sit in the corner while I serve you a flaming cup of my fuck!" as a tag-line.  I swear he used that on any newb that tried to outwit him.  (keyword:  tried)

Naturally, all of the Fryday Beer Lunches were hysterical...
Nanky + Newcastles = LMFAO

The outragously funny account of Voodoo singing to his shoe (was that at Giants or MSG?)  It doesn't matter.  It was fucking funny!

The House Party thread - pissing in Mick's koi pond - man, did we know how to dream!

Show Us Your Faces - always a favorite...

End of the Year RO Awards - talk about stirring up some shit!  ...omg!



Oh hell...there are just too many to mention!

Giants. I believe it was Moonie who somehow managed to randomly find him alone in the middle of a crowd of 60,000 drunkenly serenading his ripped sneaker.

Was he lost? How would he have known? Would he have cared? I think it was more  a case of being drunk and daft.

We DID lose him at MSG two nights earlier. As he'd decided to go at the last minute, he wasnt sitting with Jaxx and myself, so we'd all agreed to meet at a bar a block or so away (Mustang Harrys, I think).

Everyone made it there after the gig but Voodoo. We stayed until around 2 am and then walked back about 15 blocks to Jaxx's sister's apartment in the pissing rain, stepping over a few winos en route, wondering what had happened to our comrade, and fearing the worst. How the fuck can you get lost walking one block south on 8th Avenue?

We arrived back to find him tucked up in bed, snoring (and probably farting) like a freight train. He was wandering around the Garden after the show in a drunken state and just happened to be found by Jaxx's sister, who was on her way out of the gig, having been seated elsewhere in the arena. She brought his drunken ass home. His natural homing instinct had come up trumps again.

My own everlasting memory of that trip occurred once I arrived in New York. Jaxx hadnt told me or anyone else that he was coming (they wanted to surprise me), but unknown to me he'd secured a ticket at the last minute.

I'd got the bus to Grand Central and was walking down Park Avenue, respectably dressed in a suit (it wasnt long after 9/11 and for some reason we'd been advised to look respectable and non threatening when flying into the US) and minding my own business.  I'd got about as far as 31st Street when I could swear I hears this voice..."Gazza!"....No, I thought. I'm 3,000 miles from home. No one knows me in New York.

Walked on another 20 steps...."Gazza!"..... I thought, there's something fishy goin' on here.....and then the voice goes again..."Gazza - You Cocksucker!".....At this point I curled my right hand into a fist and turned around to confront my aggressor - and there's this Mexican lunatic standin' there with a shit-eatin grin on his face and his arms wide apart...

"What the fuck are YOU doin' here?" I said, disbelievingly

"I'm here to see the Stones!"

(At this point, I'm beginning to get edgy as I've been told the apartment we're staying in is pretty small, has one bedroom and only one person normally lives in it..)

"Uh...great....and where are you staying?"

"I'm staying with YOU!!!!"

"Oh fuck!!"

A chaotic few days ensued as you can imagine, but we had a hoot.

Beers for lunch

I still have the Newcastle tap handle from those days.



If I were a shrink, I think I would conduct a case study of the place.
An entire chapter alone could be devoted to Joey and his fetishes.

Really wish I had logged it better.
For the first few years I could remember more of the themes and jokes.
But as time marches, and lives get busier, you can lose touch with it all.
I hate that.

Gazza mentioned the rain after MSG - holy shit - Maxmeister and I walked for an hour all around MSG trying to find that party.  We were drenched.  By the time we got there, people were starting to head out   That was the night I first heard of infllatable party sheep (IPS) from she whose name shall not be spoken.



One of my fondest memories was the opener of the tour in Boston last time out.
I'm standing in the bar at the four seasons and this big guy, semi-shaven, in a t-shirt with a goat's head on it and a bandana in his hair comes over and says "hey"like he knows me.

I look the guy over and I don't recognize him at all.
Maybe someone I met at SARS in Toronto?
I don't know - I think he must be drunk and thinks I am someone else.

"Can I buy you a drink nanker?" he says
Oh shit.
He knows me.
But I am clueless.

It's jb.

Another strange incident occurred in Chicago at Soldier Field (not the freezing show).
A bunch of us are standing there by the food place while the opener played.
And this guy comes up to me and says "hey are you nankerphelge"
I figure I am being served
Turns out he is a friend of Joey's and recognized me from some post.
