With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

I wonder what a Mac "verbal tirade" sounds like.

Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

What do you want to discuss?

I'm glad there was a trial since it was all a thinly veiled attempt to extort money out of him or the band. Since the charges were dismissed, a civil case is unlikely.

At the time I googled the penalty for an assault guilty verdict. I think the most he could have received was 6 months. So for two counts of assault he was facing up to a year in jail.

This case should never have gone to trial. It was on the level of a Judge Judy case. Yet, a different verdict would have had far reaching consequences.

If I had been hit in the head by the toilet door I would wear my scar proudly and stop everyone and point at it and say, "See this? This is where Ian McCulloch smashed me in the head with a toilet door." And then I'd laugh hysterically.

And we know they don't have any of that.

well to be fair they were taking the piss
A kite is a contract of glory
that must be made with the sun,
so you make friends with the field
the river and the wind,
then you pray the whole cold night before,
under the travelling cordless moon,
to make you worthy and lyric and pure.
