David Hepworth, Mark Ellen and chums cast an occasionally jaundiced eye over the goings-on in the worlds of music and entertainment.

Rock stars we envy, Madonna as a sister-in-law & the British obsession with poshness
byMark Ellen, David Hepworth and Alex Gold

Steering the supercar of enquiry round the rock and roll racetrack with the occasional stop for a tyre change. Foot-to-floor moments this week include…

 

… why are the British so hung up about posh pop stars?

 

… the 10-second moment of his stage routine that Springsteen must find addictive

 

… the flaming bra, the flying dress, the human horse: Lady Gaga’s most OTT entrances

 

.. would YOU want Madonna as a sister-in-law?

 

… Fleetwood Mac, the Grateful Dead, the Bee Gees: bands the NME said were finished in 1975

 

… John Paul Jones in Marks and Sparks

 

… musicians’ houses we’d most like to live in (actually one’s a lifeboat)

 

… the goth/fantasy allure of Steve Nicks on TikTok

 

… and the still-haunting times we died onstage “like a louse in a Russian’s beard”.

 

Plus Noel Coward, Julie Andrews, Jem Finer, birthday guest Phil Turner and Tony Bennett’s favourite meal.
