Last night I dreamt I was seeing a band consisting of Warren Ellis and Iggy Pop. They were performing a cover of the Stones “Play With Fire”. It sounded amazing

Mega, mega seen this show at Liverpool philharmonic.. as I say mega!!!

[@benjaminl429]

This song live renders this version from the film almost a cheap outtake. I've never seen anything like it. The crowd swarmed to the foot of the stage as Nick stood tall over them like an Old Testament God, promising to shoot them in the face to the thunder of drum and base. And still they came, transfixed in awe. It was simultaneously the closest thing to a religious experience and profound understanding of humanity I've ever come, and perhaps ever will. He is right when he says he needs to tour songs to fully understand them.

Dude, I couldn't have said it better myself. You're not referring to Brisbane are you? I was up the front!

[@benjaminl429]

@@chris_camo sure was mate. I was just off to the side, less than 5m from the stage, so saw the whole procession in panorama. It was really something else.

[@user-dc1dr9kr8x]

Obviously something happened there......is it on film?

White Elephant Lyrics [Verse 1] The white hunter sits on his porch With his elephant gun and his tears He'll shoot you for free if you come around here A protester kneels on the neck of a statue The statue says "I can't breathe" The protester says "Now you know how it feels" And he kicks it into the sea [Verse 2] I am a Botticelli Venus with a penis Riding an enormous scalloped fan I'm a sea foam woman rising from the spray And I'm coming to do you harm With a gun in my pants full of elephant tears And a seahorse on each arm With my elephant gun of tears I'll shoot you all for free If you evеr think about coming 'round here I'll shoot you in the fucking facе If you think of coming around here [Verse 3] I'm an ice sculpture melting in the sun I'm an ice sculpture with an elephant gun I'm an ice sculpture made of elephant-sized tears Raining gas and salt upon your heads The president has called in the Feds I've been planning this for years I'll shoot you in the fucking face If you think of coming around here I'll shoot you for just for fun I'm a statue lying on my side, in the sun With the memory of an elephant Evaporating before your eyes And becoming a great grey cloud of wrath Roaring my salt upon the earth I will shoot you all for free if you so much as look at me [Chorus] A time is coming A time is nigh For the kingdom In the sky Don't ask who Don't ask why There's a kingdom in the sky We're all coming home For a while A time is coming A time is nigh For the kingdom in the sky We're all coming home For a while A time is coming A time is nigh For the kingdom in the sky We're all coming home In a while

The George Floyd "I can't breathe" reference at the beginning is hilariously disconnected from reality.... he didn't bother to read about Floyd's many, many crimes.... including physical assault against people 1/3 his size... Guy needs introspection to match his talent.

[@PearlPureheart]

None of that has anything to do with Floyd being murdered by white supremacist cops. And the jury of mixed people agree with me. I think you’d be better off listening to that patriot that shat in his pants at the draft board to get out of serving in Vietnam, first name Ted.
