Dear Heckasac,
ReplyDeleteWhat's up with that Jack White vs Thee Wild Billy Childish spat?

Who cares? Look at that pelvic hair!!!....
ReplyDeletethe best part is every time i hear a Police song - it's Heckamax singing. every time there's a Heart song - it's performed by Heart ala Christmas show. every time an Eagles song comes on, it's Vonshreddsmore and Dave.
ReplyDeletei guess i just don't listen to that much Zep.
well, I can't find the entire letter quickly, but here's some choice quotes from Billy's letter to Jack:
ReplyDelete"Though I have undoubtedly angered Jack White, I think it's a bit nasty of him to accuse me of plagiarism merely because his former admiration of my work was not reciprocated."
He added: "It all smacks of jealousy to me. I have a bigger collection of hats, a better moustache, a more blistering guitar sound and a fully developed sense of humour. The only thing I can't understand is why I'm not rich. Yours sincerely, Billy Childish."
Signing off the letter, Childish said: "P.S. I always stay well within the music industries recommended guidelines of never plagiarising more than 50% of my material. But no matter who my influences may be, I would never stoop so low as to rip off Led Zeppelin.
"P.P.S I hope I've gone and offended Led Zeppelin now."
Seems like Billy comes out on top in this one. Jack White should have some respect for his elders and shut the fuck up. He's going to look like a whiny baby no matter what and it was all sparked by some quotes from an Esquire article about Billy Childish in which he said he doesn't like the White Stripes. No big deal. Can you really imagine him liking them? You can tell that Jack White got his feelings hurt and lashed out.
That said, I would just like to weigh in as saying that I don't like Holly Golightly. She bugs.
I can't get embarassed 'cause the photo doesn't show up on my computer. I'm sure its awesome, though.
