How come I'm the only person that isn't bothered about Rolf Bleedin Harris? Am I missing the point, surely he's nothing but a novelty act?

Don't get me wrong, I've nothing against him I just don't know why everyone goes so completly OTT for him.

He's such a likable bloke. I forget which year it was, could well of been his first performance in 93, but I remember him just looking out at the crowd (who he had in the palm of his hand anyway), beaming like a lunatic and saying something along the lines of "Thank you so much for making an old man very happy"...And you could tell he was genuinely moved, twas a touching moment I tells ya :lol:

Animal Collective

Brand New

Passion Pit

Emiliana Toioilololoririrlorlo (or however you spell it)

Metronomy

Bon Iver

I thought they were all pretty shit.

I think you've got to be of a certain age, ie the generation where he WAS children's TV. Long before cartoon time he did a kind of variety show with music and drawings and allsorts. It sticks in my mind as being something from before I went to primary school (mid 30s now), and I remember the songs affectionately. It's all a bit tongue in cheek and ironic though isn't it. Isn't it? Oh please?
