Paul Weller (2)

 

is a cunt.

I did like The Jam. But the way Weller just cut the other two off and out of his life when he chose to finish the band showed an early indication of what a cunt he could be. Just frozen out like they never even existed.

Then – after the pretentious Style Council – Weller was feted and sucked up to big during the Britpop hype. And, the ‘anti-rock star’ behaved like one. Booze, powder, women and all that. Nothing wrong with that, but the way Weller used to sneer at the Rock ‘N’ Roll lifestyle also shows a hypocritical cunt.

It appears, his monumental ego never came down from this mid 90s adulation. And, even his closest friends weren’t immune from his cunt side.

The link touches on it. But, he does come across as a cunt….

  1. Looks like a raddled old granny these days, with that daft haircut..

    Any one who gives money for someone else to go up the ramp for them is a cunt in my eyes.

  2. Don’t remember much about the Dodger’s. The only band I stuck with was the Fall, who had more fallouts and new weekly members than any musical group and didn’t give a fuck whether they got into the charts or not. Mark E Smith was the boss and whatever he said went. Now he’s pissed up in the great wheelchair drug infected sky with the rest.

      • The Jam should have recorded a number with Marmalade and called themselves The Preserves.

      • Preserve is interchangeable with conserve.
        So Geordie they could be the “conservatives”.
        Oh how ironic.

  3. I’m frightened to remind myself of this shite, incase I won’t be able to rid my mind of it. similar to shit on the shoe.

  4. It would appear that my phone is having a Rosie Jones style spaz this morning. Never mind.
    No wonder Weller’s a cunt. His dad was also one of weapons grade proportions.
    Also the band’s manager, he could never quite understand why the other two members should get paid.
    He was instrumental in his son’s efforts to erase them from memory and they both caused them untold grief for years.
    What a family sized pair of cunts.

  5. As an avowed leftard, Weller will be hanging on every word of the anally-retentive Dalek’s speech to the nation today.

    To be delivered with all the charisma of a bank’s compliance officer reading out a 30 page risk assessment for a new financial product.

  6. True story, this….

    During his Stanley Road period of re-acclaim, and the height of the Oasis thing. Paul Weller was sort of mates with Noel Gallagher.

    When both were in Weller’s garden having a drink or two, Noel asked Paul if he (Weller) still ‘mattered’. As in was he as relevant now as he was in his Jam days.

    Paul took his shirt off, and began running round the garden. Beating his chest like a demented gorilla, and shouting ‘Weller! Weller! Wellarrrrgh!’ over and over. When he finally stopped, Gallagher said calmly, ‘Fuckin’ ell, mate , I only asked.’

  7. Weller is a cunt.

    He said to the music press, ‘I really don’t give a fuck if I never see Rick Buckler again.’

    Then, Rick Buckler died. Nice one, Paul.🙄

    The way his Jam bandmates were simply discarded was snide. He has never worked with better musicians since. But, it was all that cutting them off stuff. Weller didn’t reply to Christmas cards, talk to them or anything. It’s like they never existed. Even bands who were far bigger (Beatles, Eagles, Floyd, Zeppelin) spoke to each other after they finished. Weller also publicly scorned his former bandmates for their From The Jam band. Bruce and Rick didn’t have the financial cushion that Weller has. They had to still earn money in their late 40s and early 50s, and they were two thirds of an admittedly very good band. So they were entitled to go out and play the songs. And, the thing is, Weller would call his former bandmates doing it ‘Fucking cabaret’. Then he himself is singing Jam songs in his live set.

    Joke is, they never even fell out. like those bigger acts mentioned above. One day, Weller decided he wanted to form a pretentious jazzy soul type band (Style Council) and that the two lads who had helped take him to the very top were suddenly surplus to requirements. Bruce Foxton even pleaded with Weller to take a year off from the band and the Jam could come back recharged. But he didn’t budge, and one of the finest rhythm sections of the New Wave post punk era was discarded without a thought. Imagine Townshend saying to Moon and Entwistle ‘You’re both fired. Fuck off.’ Or Page dropping Jones and Bonham?

    Weller fanboys still say he was ‘brave’ for wrecking the much loved Jam. But it was cold, calculating and rather ruthless.
