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….

If he voted Reform I’ll forgive him

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.

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’ve had a wolligog group member for a laugh.

Were they called the confectionery because Weller always wanted jam on it ?
