Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
Re: Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
Well Bridger15, those items hardly merit a 'Lifetime of Achievement' award in my grouchy opinion. Wonder why the building in question didn't survive as an Art Gallery, could it be that she filled it with her own 'art' and nobody came. Here's hoping she isn't recording herself in the changed use building, remembering the hideous screeching noises she produced in the past - I can feel my grumpiness escalating at the thought of it.

As I see it, Yoko Ono made a valuable contribution to the memories of Hungarian Holocaust victims and to the decimated Jewish Community of Budapest. When she bought, restored and continued to maintain a building of significance in the old Jewish Quarter of Budapest, she saved a piece of history .Evie B wrote:...someone must be able to think of something Yoko Ono contributed somewhere along the line, apart of being a pain in the a** - .

I'm with Evie B on this one,when I think of Yoko Ono all I can hear is the screeching she passed for singing!

joe brown has just received an MBE in the queen's birthday honours list.
So thrilled by MBE, says Joe Brown
Veteran rock guitarist Joe Brown has said he "couldn't be more thrilled and delighted" to be honoured by the Queen after half a century in music...

Hi Gregor
Was glad to vote, hope posts haven't offended. Appreciated your encouragement in getting everyone voting. Just a bit miffed/astonished our man didn't win.
Not sure how to react to 'LAME' as I don't really understand what the comment meant in this context.
If I was in Cork I would buy you a Guinness.

Re: Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
It's nice to be nominated among all those young folk, isn't it? It's not all about the winning... and surely not when you're 75 years old! I am sure LC appreciates these new nominations:)

Re: Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
You are right Tom, Leonard will probably be quite charmed to be nominated regardless of the outcome.
Yoko and Joe both thoroughly deserve their wins. (I am now off to wash my mouth out with soap, which is what we are supposed to do when we tell lies)

Ummmmm...it's lame that the Fleet Foxes won when we wanted Leonard to win. Not sure what the question is...Gregor wrote:mnkyface wrote:LAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![]()

Re: Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
"Plactic Cohenites" should read ----- P L A S T I C ..... I got the spelling a bit wrong. However just to air my views of all those "fans" who were here looking, screeming, begging, prostituting, selling their souls etc. for tickets for the gigs around the world.
It is easy to be available and air one's views on a good day , but where were they when their support was really needed, thats where I am coming from with my description of "P L A S T I C " (Disposable,easily got rid of, use only once, does not last for too long, replacable, copycat, not the real thing, need I go on because I could. That said I think I have made enough noise about it all .

Re: Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
Hi Gregor
Thought it might be Plastic Ono Band you were alluding to, that being Yoko's and John's 'group' many moons ago.
I think everybody who has posted on this thread (apart from the Britney Spears fan) actually voted for LC, plus many more besides.
As I don't thoroughly understand what you are getting at about plastic fans, I wont add any further comments.
All the best,
Evie

Somebody has something against Britney? 

Re: Leonard nominated for MOJO Best Live Act
Lots of things - she's beautiful, blonde with big brown eyes, has a great voice and figure, dances like a dream, what's to like? I hate her, and Angelina Jolie, and Sienna Miller, and Michelle Phiefer, and and andTom Sakic wrote:Somebody has something against Britney?
