Billy Idol on Sports, Drugs and Rock n' Roll circa 1977
While Billy Idol may never have been punk's resident philosopher, it's still fascinating watching him struggling, at length, to articulate what punk meant to him in the midst of it all. There's some really funny moments and genuine in here and it's a reminder of just how music was about the only thing that mattered to young William Broad.

Re: Re-Ups
MRML does not plan to restore all of the content lost in The Great Mediafire Gutting of 2012. Polite requests may be made in the appropriate section, regular commenters will get priority.
Billy will never go on to win the Nobel prize, but you've gotta love him all the same. He's nothing if not entertaining.
