This is insane!! for starters how can you go from inviting some of the true greats like Oscar Wild and Bram Stoker, too pete doherty?? and then say he will talk about Life and Love? The guy is determind to throw his LIFE down the toilet!! I wonder what the "and so much more" bit will be about? Needles and how to play piss poor guitar? I'm glad i didn't go to that University!!

I can't imagine what he'll talk about, he's only brought out 1 good album, the rest is all very middlle of the road, he might discuss how he holds the World Record for not washing, either that or it's be how to fix up some gear.
