Does Billy Idol still live in the states and didn't he have a bad accident a while back? Also, does anyone know if he still tours UK? I can only ever find pre 2004 US tour dates. I would love to see him do Rebel Yell live.

He was certainly living in Los Angeles last year when he acted as 'Pre-Match Mascot' for Hollywood United - the 'showbiz' Sunday league footie team featuring Steve (Sex Pistols) Jones and Billy (The Cult) Duffy at various of their matches.

I think I've read he has an American girlfriend, so I doubt he's come back to Bromley.  :)

I heard that Billy is not big on the state of Punk music today and neither am I. I would like to check out his upcoming record.

Billy Idol is playing live here in Montreal on April 11, 2005 and is on the cover of our weekly entertainment rag.
He is lookin good at 50.

I forgot about the Mony Mony audience call-response of "Hey MF get laid get f*ked!" but we used to shout that at the club.
I have to bring that one back next time I DJ.   :)
