Re: RIP
She's probably still most famous for ripping up the picture of John Paul II. Has that defined her career? Sinead's reply:
"Yes, in a beautiful fucking way. There was no doubt about who this bitch is. There was no more mistaking this woman for a pop star. But it was not derailing; people say, 'Oh, you fucked up your career' but they're talking about the career they had in mind for me. I fucked up the house in Antigua that the record company dudes wanted to buy. I fucked up their career, not mine. It meant I had to make my living playing live, and I am born to play live”.

Wow, that's a great quote. Few can say they've been that genuine in aspects of their lives.SR wrote: ↑Wed Jul 26, 2023 3:24 pmShe's probably still most famous for ripping up the picture of John Paul II. Has that defined her career? Sinead's reply:

Re: RIP
Agreed. Morrisey had a great take on all the accolades post death...."too late". Online I read a real winning response from someone who witnessed Mitch McConnell going mute (looked like a stroke) at a presser. They said, "I can't believe I saw the day Sinead died and MM didn't".thoreau wrote: ↑Fri Jul 28, 2023 8:25 amWow, that's a great quote.

What a huge piece of my childhood.Back in 2010, my wife and I did our honeymoon trip to NYC in December. My brother-in-law's wedding gift was tickets to whatever Broadway show we wanted. We chose Pee-wee's Playhouse Live, which was running that month. He bought us tickets in the second row. The curtain went up and Pee-wee (along with most of the original show cast) was literally 6 feet in front of us us, asking everyone to stand up and recite the Pledge of Allegiance. From there, we were transported inside the show I grew up loving so much. It was so surreal but so amazing.

I didn’t grow up on Pee Wees playhouse, but this is a really great story. I know that feeling and it’s a lot of fun.thoreau wrote: ↑Tue Aug 01, 2023 7:38 ampaul-reubens-pee-wee-herman-2016-mike-pont-wireimage-1068x708.jpg

For any art enthusiasts, we were sitting right behind Julian Schnabel's son, Vito, in the first row. That was a trip.

Take a bow, Mike Martt.
