Assaulted my ears last Saturday, with a strange very heavily amplified grunting, coming from the direction of Carrow Road, where he was grunting & groaning live.

I just wish someone would tell me who Rod the Mod is
"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

Rod Stewart, Cali! For services to music, charity etc. If any ageing rock star deserves it, he does - saw him once, one of the best live acts I've seen. He says he'll "wear it well".Originally posted by Caliban View PostI just wish someone would tell me who Rod the Mod isComment

Ah, a popular beat musician, in a nutshell... I'm obliged to learned Counsel.

Anyways, I hope they'll knight Julie Tippetts - Lady Julia Driscoll?? - - after all, she was a much better singer in that 1965 Steampacket line-up when being a rock singer mattered.Comment
