Sting, Rod Stewart, and Bryan Adams Indicted for Rock Crime

02/13/07 | by Mr. Moderator

Fresh off The Police's blockbuster reunion at the GRAMMYS and subsequent announcement of a North American tour, Sting, Rod Stewart, and Bryan Adams were indicted by the Rock Crimes Commission at Rock Town Hall for their part in the 1993 collaboration on "All For Love", which appeared in the soundtrack to the movie The Three Musketeers. The single reached #1 on the US charts, but the collaborators and their numerous Rock Crimes managed to duck the law until the discovery of the above video, as posted on YouTube by Raducanu90.

Attorneys for the musicians issued "No comment." Prosecutors promised details in the coming week, but would not comment further until the defendants had turned themselves into authorities.

Rock Town Hall will continue to follow this story.

It's probably against the laws of Rock Town Hall to write about American Idol, so sue me. Anyway, this week the kids sang British Invasion songs. Two of them did Zombies songs - Time of the Season and She's Not There. A friend of mine is the Zombies' publicist, and she emailed YouTube clips of the performances to Colin and Rod. This is what Rod wrote back to her --
"Blimey !! never thought of " Time of the Season " as a panty dropping K.Y. jelly type of moment..........I was just desperately trying to remember the tune before our studio time ran out. Isn't life grand........all the best....C.B."

Oops. I mean what Colin wrote back to her. Oh well.

I say:

It most certainly is NOT! We need to change the "rules" around here on this topic, no matter what the hair up Mr. Mod's ass has to say about it. Great story, and thanks for sharing!

There are only two rules here-

1. There are no rules.
2. No outside food.

Thank you for your attention.
