Wall's band Greyhawkwas playing a show in Boise, Idaho when a man with a gun tried to enter the venue

A man with a gun walks into a bar. Everyone ducks for cover. The man screams, "Who the fark had sex with my wife?"

Upon hearing this, the drummer of the band said, "You don't have enough bullets!" then proceeded to get shot.

The drummer was injured, the gunman arrested, and the wife savagely gangbanged by the rest of the venue.

The End.

No, they keep exploding, choking on unprinted vomit, and having mysterious gardening accidents.

Permanent Solutions For Permanent Problems: Johnny Ace knows damn well.


My brother found a novel called "Trouble in Bass Clef" about a guy named Johnny Scotch, which may in fact be the worst novel ever written (although it's part of a series, so any of them might be). It's like a bot read some noir novels and spat this out, but it was written by a real-life person; and instead of weirdly funny and offbeat it's dripping in enough tropes and cliches to make Tracer Bullet roll his eyes.

Like there's a woman introduced on page 20ish who is blonde, wears a white dress, speaks like Jessica Rabbit, and enters with some gigantic bruiser of an idiot - who gets in a fight with Our Hero (after OH buys the lady a drink), and is promptly laid out despite being twice OH's size.

Drinks scotch like water, plays the trumpet like a god, has women throwing themselves at him like Opening Day fastballs... I mean, name something that fits "I need to shiat out a book in an hour, and I'm not Chuck Tingle. Wat do?" and it's in there.

Did you hear that the lead singer of Guns'N'Roses was involved in a minor car accident?

He hit a bump in the road and his Axl Rose!

miles davis was well known for being a HUGE asshole.  different miles?

Sickle cell anemia deteriorated his wrist bones and hips, so he was in constant pain from '64-'65 on. Ironically after he quit dope.
He was exhausting as an arranger and bandleader, but he DID redefine Jazz, like, 4 or 5 times.
Not a bad player, either.


,


his talent and influence were beyond compare.  but he was a mean bitter asshole.
