Spice-filled items tossed into the conversational cooking-pot this week include:-
… our charming encounter with Gary Numan, possibly the world’s most contented man.
… the next step in the age of spectacle: the sensory bombardment of U2’s shows at the Las Vegas Sphere and the crippling cost of experiencing it.
… Taylor Swift’s genius for publicity and the subtle art of connecting with “Joe Six-Pack”.
… the shockingly unwise and unfathomable pronouncements of Roger Waters and how his fall-out with David Gilmour makes Lennon’s ‘How Do You Sleep?’ seem like a love letter.
… pop stars and their hair transplants.
… what do bands think of their tribute acts?
.. the ‘Austin Powers’ albums of David McCallum, a star so huge he needed a police motorcade.
… Hugh Laurie, James Gandolfini, Carrie Fisher, Colin Firth, Felicity Kendal and others whose TV roles made them sex symbols.
… and do rock stars really change people’s political views?
