luke vibert Richard James: spent old man

Richard's arthritis is now too pronounced for him to twiddle knobs. He's only fit to be wheeled round various festivals in a kind of pimped Y-reg Davros/Popemobile contraption which is really just a hi-tech Japanese bidet on Good Year tyres. His food (mainly leeks) is liquidised and shot down his urethra via a catheter where it leeches through his duodenum and keeps his gnarled heart beating. Luke Vibert still visits him fortnightly, primarily to apply linctus. Richard tells him he looks like the boy who used to come and visit him. The wee Richard keeps in kilner jars has now phosphorised and is glowing at up to 1200 lumens. Richard is a spent old man.

haha awesome fitting avatar

selected phosphorised wee coming up!

I refuse to believe any of this. REFUSE

the elder ones still know how to twiddle knobs.

I fail to see how anybody could be a spent old man at 40 years of age. unless they've been a smackhead for a decade, or something.

Here's a recent pic. I guess the diagnosis should be: smackhead for over a decade.

Crap. The link doesn't work.

Here's another pic:

when was the last AFX release?

it was more recent than the last BoC one, anyway.

and Cylob released some tapes not so long ago... more recently than the last AFX release.

so if anyone's spent it's the BoCs of Canada.

Ha, we were pretty much all thinking this.

Brian and Karen Tregaskin just put richie in a room with Yamaha GX1 and tell him he cant have any jelly and ice cream till he makes some acid. Then they sell the tracks to pay for heroin.

good thread would read again
