That's fucking Rock'n'Roll .......

The Longest Day – An Apology


Hi everybody,

I would like to apologise to all the people who came to the show in Paris for the poor performance and childish behaviour.

Thanks for all your messages of concern and support which I probably don't deserve.

I could fill this page with lists of excuses such as ‘nothing to eat all day’ or the ‘equipment was shit’ (it was!)….etc…etc…..But I won’t!

The truth is, I don’t really know what happened that night. Perhaps I’m just an alcoholic that can’t control my drinking. I can’t remember too much but I do remember waking up on Sunday morning. We had just played a blinding sell out show at ‘Mondo Bizzaro’ in Rennes, where, as always, we were well looked after by our old friends Bruno and Ralph. Thanks Guys. This included a great party at the bar after the show with loads of unidentifiable shots. The next day the maid started banging and opening the door about 10:30AM (a late check out would have been nice, but like I said... No excuses!!) We emerged from the Hotel and it was a beautiful summers day (in late October!!). Probably the last one of the year, in Europe, anyway. We were in a lovely village square, opposite Rennes Station, surrounded by bars with three hours to kill before the train. You don't have to be Hercule Poirrot to deduct our next move. Steve (Dave’s carer) produced a nice bottle of red on the train and the rest is now history.


So, as I sit here writing this with shaking hands, a hangover from hell and a huge feeling of guilt. I can only say a huge thank you to the fans in Decines and Rennes and apologise once again to the people who came in Paris. If I’m really honest I did have fucking great weekend in France though!

Pardon et Moi!

Merci Beaucoup

Monsignor Del!

Hi Del, I see you're still alive ...
See you soon in Mondo Bizarro and have a drink together  
But as Bruno says : “The next time, one gives them water to drink”
 



Cheers and Take care guys

Phil.

This is an apology? This is bullshit! I am a friend of Holidays in the Rain peoples and they say to me the truth. This is not the truth. This is list of excuses. This is just like year ago in Paris at  festival de Marne. I came to see your band this night and they are all OK but you are very drunk and so drunk its not possible the guitar playing. You played very very bad and you make the songs of your band sound shit. The peoples of Holidays in the Rain say to me on sunday  you arrive very very drunk , perhaps the most as drunk as ever. They say to me you demand hard drugs and act like a fucking rock star.You destroy the famous head of bull on the wall and drink wine from bull horn.This is very bad. You say that there was no food but i knows the peoples of Holidays make for your band catering. They do many things for you they do not make for other bands.
They say to me that you find very very hard drugs and that you are a fucking junkie.I think this real reason you fall down on the stage. Are you a fucking junkie now? Paris does not need fucking arsehole rock star junkies. Who are you now ?  - Johnny Thunders, Stiv Bators ?
You say you had a fucking great weekend in France. What about for the peoples of Paris ? Do you think they had a fucking great weekend?
The other men in your band they are OK. I speak with Peter after the ' gig ' and heis furious. I think the most furious ever. Moreover he say to me he is sorry for the gig and the all the peoples of Paris. I speak also with your bassist. He also say to me is very sorry.
Now you write apology to hope everything OK for you. Its fucking bullshit. A sorry junkie - ha ha ha !

Your probably right. 
At least I apologised, it's up to you wether you want to accept it or not.
I can't help being an 'alcoholic' or a 'junkie' as you put it. 
Thats what thirty-two years of being in a punk band does for you.
In fact. I hardly know any people who doesn't drink or take drugs.
We can't all be perfect like you. At least I'm not a hypocrite. 
I've apologised for ruining the show. It's done now and I'll try my best not let it happen again.
By the way I know your brother who lives on the Isle of Wight!!

I also have brother
Who livezz on the isle of wight
He's the hornet on your cornet
and always wants a fight

he's rowdy when he's drowsy
like many of our species
but unlike vocal localists
he won't treat you like shite

He'll tuck you up in bed
and pander to your wants
wishing you were dead
he'll still download your fonts

A wasp for all protection
he'll not clean up yor turds
but despite your firm erection
he'll always nick your birds

This Luc Legrande is a made up myspace charachter? This is bullshit! This is worse than George from the Isle of Wight! I have never had my intelligence so insulted in my life! A bit of pidgeon English does not make a convincing imaginary Frenchman. Imagine what it is like for those of us who are genuine non-existant figments of their creators imaginations: we make a proper page!! This "Luc Legrande" has put no fucking photograph, he has no friends or interests or anything to make his invented existance appear credible, this is a fucking joke.... he doesn't even have a comedy name like mine, just some easily made up false French name. Sacre bleu!!! His creator must be on very hard drugs if he is too lazy to set up a proper profile.
I think that this "Luc Legrande" owes the people of my beloved Isle of Man a great debt. We still have the birch here so I think that This Luc should come here on a tour of the island, giving free performances of himself being birched....he should be on his knees, begging for forgiveness......a grovelling tour of apologies, that may go some way to making up for his appalling Myspace profile performance. I am furious, I think the most furious ever. He is a sorry failure. ha ha ha.

I have slept with both Huc and his little brother George from the Isle of Wight and let me tell you Mssr Le Grande, neither of you live to your name. (Grande). Give me a good old fashioned 'can hardly stand up' drunk punk any day. They can go all night not like you 30 second scared of your own reflection in your drink boys.

Good Luck
