I wonder if he'll try to change his appearance. he certainly stands out from the crowd.....
According to one newspaper report, he's been writing new material for another album - and wants to tour again!!
Hey Ice, I wonder if his singing voice is still good? (Or was it ever good in the first place? lol
you get so many lovely people die of cancer, or horrendous car accidents, yet you get this piece of filth, who gets yet another chance in life..

its so unjust
I agree Petal, but that's how the record industry works.

As for him coming back to the UK, he is going to be hounded wherever he goes, not that will worry him at first from seeing his behavior on TV on his flight back, but he will soon get tired of it and hopefully he might top himself.
Just heard on the BBC News that he has missed his flight from Bangkok to UK with a suspected heart attack (hopefully).

Honestly that's what it said.
Hi Chappie. Not sure about the voice. Only heard a couple of his songs. Let's hope he develops throat nodules and never sings again.
Agree Petal.
He's too cowardly to do us all a favour Rtaxron. They always are.
Former pop star Gary Glitter has refused to board a flight to the UK, saying he was having a heart attack.

He was earlier deported from Vietnam after spending almost three years in jail for sexually abusing two girls.

Glitter, 64, real name Paul Francis Gadd, had arrived at Bangkok in Thailand, where he was to change planes and fly back to the UK.

But he refused to leave the airport, demanding to be allowed to stay in Thailand or another Asian country.

Glitter sold millions of records as a glam rock star in the 1970s, with hits including I'm the Leader of the Gang.

He had been met at Bangkok airport by immigration officials to ensure he caught his connecting flight.

But BBC correspondent Jonathan Head said the British policeman accompanying Glitter had been unable to persuade him to board the plane to the UK.

Glitter has been refused entry to Thailand, despite a plea for medical treatment there.

Our correspondent said Glitter was stuck at the airport, unwilling to face the reception in the UK, but unable to go anywhere else.
Petal Flower -

regarding Glitter's back catalogue - he sold the rights and royalties for a seum rumoured to be around �5 million before his arrest and imprisonment. At that time, his catalogue was quite valuable, apearing on a number of compilations, and still getting radio play. Of course, in the lkight of his convicitions, his record plays have virtually stopped, and his catalogue is virtually worthless, but he still has the lump sum, so that was a shrewd move on his part.

As an occasional party DJ, I always loved playing his songs, which were always massively popular, but since his conviction, I have never played a song of his - I am unsure what the reaction of an audience would be.

I have debated the dilema of the art versus the artist before on the AB - do we enjoy art even though the artist has behaved in a reprehensible way?
Question Author
sorry i thought this post was jokes???
Any, to give you some idea of what te reaction would be, I was at a function where the DJ (not a full time one) played a glitter record, and within 30 seconds the floor was empty.

Oh, and some of these jokes are very good. Yes, it's a sick subject really, but (a) it is how some people deal with things like that, doesn't mean they condone it and (b) the "funniness" is not in the subject, but the wit used to devise it.
