ANSWER TO MY HALLOWEEN TRIVIA TEASER:

Due to its shoestring budget, the prop department for Halloween (1978) had to use the cheapest mask that they could find in the costume store: a William Shatner mask, from The Devil's Rain (1975). They later spray-painted the face white, teased out the hair, and reshaped the eyeholes!!

Sir Henry’s (Ireland) 2007 Directed by Keith O’Shea

New York had the Paradise Garage, Manchester had the Hacienda and when house music finally arrived on Irish shores, it found a home at Sir Henry’s in Cork. At its peak Sir Henry’s was one of the premier nightclubs on the dance music scene, its sweat drenched walls playing host to some of the greatest DJ’s and club nights in Europe. Its demise and subsequent demolition brought many a tear to people in Cork. Through the eyes of those that played and witnessed the club at its zenith including Sweat Club Founders Greg and Shane, Stevie G, Jim X Comet, Sam O’Neill, Mucca, Ronan C, Colm Moore, Mike Pickering, Graeme Park and Kerri Chandler, the film relives Sir Henry’s at its heyday.

Got my Tuxedo yesterday for the P.P.I. NATIONAL RADIO AWARDS tomorrow night...REDFM has 8 nominations and the ROOSTER is up for BEST BREAKFAST SHOW alongside the likes of Ian Dempsey and 2FM...Fingers crossed...felt like I was getting my Communion again I am not a fan of suits and never feel comfortable!!!

p.s. I was looking for a picture of cash and found this... CLASS!!!!

We told you about this bunch of loopers this morning called the Westboro Baptist Church...They have previously brought you such endearing websites as godhatesfags.com, godhatessweden.com and now they have decided to turn their poisoned eye on our fair isle with...wait for it...GODHATESIRELAND.COM... Oh, yes... according to this group of twisted media loving freaks we are a bunch of "sodomites" and "Ireland is in so much trouble for their outrageous sins and lies. They are beyond salvation because they refuse to repent"...Now I know Steve Staunton is being allowed to fulfil his contract but that's a bit strong!!

I have emailed them an INTERVIEW Request so we'll see if they reply...

Keith Allen versus Westboro Baptist Church...Does Preacher Phelps..the head of this so called Church hate gays because he may be one himself....ummmm

FOX News Anchor Louisa Banderas has on-air verbal battle with one of the Cult Leader's Daughters Shirley Phelps...Imagine Ann Doyle going ballistic like this!!!

Here's an excellent wind-up from some Aussie lads who got down to one of the Church's pickets and met the leader..."Are you flirting with me????!!!!"

We had Chris Pontius aka "Part Boy" from JACKASS and WILDBOYZ on the show this morning...He's a sound guy with a filthy addiction to unwashed thongs and his band SCREAM FOR ME are playing in Cypress Avenue on Saturday night

Check out his Myspace -

www.myspace.com/chrispontiusthebarbarian

Chris in his familiar role as Party Boy - Here's a Best of Compilation...Class!!!!



And here is the man himself on Cribs...Nice place!!!



Plus we were talking about the first pair of wicked runners/trainers you ever got...Remember these bad boys -
NIKE AIR 180

REEBOK PUMPS - IN A WORD...HILARIOUS


I was looking for a pair of Kangaroos and found this... Much funnier

Nearly forgot about this...AMY WINEHOUSE on the FAST SHOW!!! She's only a wee nipper with no tattoos, no slashes on her wrists and no dumb Husband but probably a lot more sense...

Today we had the Unofficial Red Rooster - "Top Ten Worst Sports Star Singles" There was many criminal records to choose from including Paul "Gazza" Gascoigne's foray into early 90's dance with "Fog on the Tyne" and his even more disturbing follow up "Geordie Boys" the video of which can be seen below (strange Hoff-like homo-erotic poses so beware and please make sure you are not operating heavy machinery!!) I also had to omit Ossie’s Dream (Spurs Are On Their Way To Wembley) The Tottenham Hotspur 1981 FA Cup song which included the immortal line - "Ossie's Going To Wembley, His knees have all gone trembly"... The criteria for my choices was strict ... 1. It had to be Shite and 2. The Sports Star had to do the vocals...

There was many to choose from but here is my final TOP TEN:

10. John Barnes rapping on England New Order Song.
World in Motion was the official song for England in the 1990 World Cup and their first number 1.

9. Chris Waddle and Glenn Hoddle – “Diamond Lights”
This Industrial electro pop anthem was written by Bob Puzey, the genius behind Russ Abbott's pop career. This single charted at No. 12 in 1987.

8. Irish Team featuring Westlife & Dustin – “Here Come The Good Times” World Cup 2002 Song…This song spent 6 weeks in the charts.

7. Oscar De La Hoya – “Mi Amor”
Former Middleweight Boxing Champion Oscar De La Hoya's 2000 self-titled CD was actually nominated for a Grammy. But listen and try not to laugh. And while you're listening, keep in mind, this guy kicks the shit out of people for a living.

6. Kobe Bryant featuring Tyra Banks - K. O. B. E.
Los Angeles Lakers star attempt at Rap the album never materialized.

5. Snooker Loopy written by Chas & Dave and featuring Dennis Taylor, Steve Davis, Willie Thorne and Terry Griffiths. Released in 1986 this got to number six in the UK charts.

4. Remember Puff Daddy released his tribute to Notorious B.I.G.
Macho Man Randy Savage tried to do the same – “My Perfect Friend” written as a tribute to Curt Hennig otherwise known as Mr. Perfect 2003.
His album Be A Man was met with scathing reviews; according to a review by Dan Aquilante of the New York Post, his album "defies the laws of physics by blowing and sucking at the same time." Another critic described the vocals as sounding like "Nick Nolte after a whiskey and sandpaper binge."

3. John Aldridge – “Lily The Pink”
The ex-Liverpool & Republic of Ireland striker won Charity You’re A Star and then released this is aid of Temple street Children’s Charity.

2. Muhammad Ali - Ali and His Gang vs. Mr. Tooth Decay
Start with Muhammad Ali spending 40 minutes discussing tooth decay. Add appearances by celebrity guest stars like Frank Sinatra and Richie Havens, a bunch of kids, and some truly wooden dialog straight out of a dental textbook. Throw in a song that doesn't make any sense. And if that isn't enough for you, top it off with narration by Howard Cosell.

And finally

1. The Anfield Rap - 1988 FA Cup finalists Liverpool. The song was Craig Johnston's idea, not John Barnes' as many might think. At this time there were only two scousers in the first team(John Aldridge and Steve McMahon), and the theme of the song evolves around their teammates strange accents.
This song made it to #3 on the charts in England


Gazza - Geordie Boys INCREDIBLE


Hoddle & Waddle Diamond Lights (Crocket & Tubbs eat your heart out!)


Macho Man Randy Savages Tribute to Mr. Perfect

And for this Criminal Record Aldo and the boys should be locked up For LIFE!!!!!!

This is incredible...imagine how you would feel after 3 months of continuous counting...well now come to think of it just ask Bertie Ahern...except he couldn't get past 30,000 or was it 50,000 oh i cant remember....

Alabama man counts to 1 Million for Charity

After 89 straight days of counting out loud on the Internet, the Mountain Brook resident looked into the cameras at 6:30 p.m. Friday and said, "One million."

The 31-year-old began his count June 18 to raise money for Push America, a charity for the disabled. Over the nearly three months of counting, he raised more than $10,500 for the organization, which is sponsored by the social fraternity Pi Kappa Phi, The Birmingham News reported.
"I'm so excited about being done," Harper said earlier in the day. "But I'm a little nervous. I'm scared. I've grown so used to almost relying on the cameras. I haven't been interacting with people."
During the count, Harper never left his house because he didn't want to be tempted to stop counting. He set up cameras all over his house so the count could be continuously streamed live over the Internet.
"Sometimes the cameras are the biggest safety net in the world and sometimes they weigh heavily on you," he said.
Still, he said he's gotten so used to them he thinks he'll miss the cameras once they're off.
But he will not miss the counting.
"I don't think I'm going to wake up and want to count," he said. "I'm the only person in this world of six billion people that's counted to a million out loud. Let someone else do two million." (fair enough but i have never worn the skin of a Giraffe and danced in the cavity of a wall doesn't mean i should)

..Less said the better on the football!!! Just wasn't meant to be and Kerry were all over the Rebels..why we couldn't get more points with a fella 6 foot 7 up front i don't know..and you can't win games wir=th points from frees... But anyway fair play to the lads for getting to the final and its a young team with some promising stars that will shine...

Thanks to Big T in Carey's tools for the lovely cake he dropped off this morning...

..if i was hanging from a tree in a desert surrounded by vultures and my only sustinence was a slice of that cake i'd defy it...plus it would leave a bitter taste...by the way Tony if you're reading this i thought a ginger cake would be more appropriate to celebrate the Gooch tying his own laces before the match!!

KIDS IN THE CAR is back tomorrow...And so is the Tall Guy after his boob job in Dublin...

Here's the cute kid we had on earlier this week..Class!!!

Well if you were listening this morning you would have heard an exclusive live on-air link with Radio Kerry for a Music Face Off !! We sent them a copy of our "REBEL RAP" by PAT THE FAKER AKA The REBEL MC (pictured below) and his partner in crime FINBARR T... they in turn sent us a copy of "Stand up for the Kingdom" by some guy with a casio keyboard he got for Christmas as a child...i think it has a great chance of being picked as the Irish entry for the next Eurovision...Gotta thank Big Tony from Carey's Tools for giving us the heads up about Kerry Radio as he is the fella who went crying to his brethren when he heard our song on the Rooster...(apparently it is a hanging offence if you slag off the Gooch in the Kingdom) I am expecting a baying mob outside the studio in the next few days with burning hay on pitchforks and effigies of myself and KC!!!

If ye haven't heard the REBEL RAP yet keep your ears oinned back as we will be playin it all week and will have it available for free download from site...If you can't wait ( i can see ye there now rubbing your hands!!) just email me at lenny@redfm.ie and i will send you a copy....

PAT THE FAKER AKA "THE REBEL MC"


Found this great picture of The Gooch but knew i'd seen him before....


Of course...He's the Mad squirrel that played the banjo in movie Deliverance...diddle, din, din din, din, din, din, din....

Here's the video to Justin Timberlake's - "D**k in a Box" ...Its got nearly 27 MILLION hits...Its the thought that counts...





Here's a brilliant link to check out...Don't know how true the facts are but its pretty cool...

http://www.peterrussell.dreamhosters.com/Odds/WorldClock.php

Well i got plugged in over the weekend and yet again the ELECTRIC PICNIC was a resounding success. It is the only true festival out there that doesn't put profit in front of punters and that was evident this year with a huge selection excellent music, sideshows and affordable food...I think one of the highlights for me was the 'HUMAN JUKEBOX' it consisted of three blokes (Bass, Drums and Guitar) dressed in zebra print spandex and huge shades inside a box no bigger than a small caravan shaped like a jukebox...to activate all you had to do was put some coins in a slot at the front and choose your track and they would play it LIVE!!! I through on the anthem Gaybar by Electric Six and they banged it out..CLASS!!! Oh yeah and dont forget Spiderman spotted by the Veggy stand cueing for a tofu treat with a line of bog roll sticking out of his pants...Peter (potty) Parker.... uuummmmmmm i cant see him doing much climbing if he has the skitters...

If you went yourself i hope you had a brill time but obviously i have to mention the unfortunate death of the young man from Cork who died during the Festival.. its a real tragedy.

I didnt take any photos cos i lost my camera...ummppphhh

So here's a picture of a sheep dressed up as an elephant...this should suffice



Here's a clip from a new reality show called KID NATION starting this week on American TV...how far will they go for ratings???

"Hello and welcome to the latest instalment of Serial Killer Big Brother. It's getting tense as we are only down to three bodies...." 10 o Clock on a Saturday just after Ant & Dec's Takeaway it would be snapped up.

Check out this dude from a previous series of X-Factor...

"Get into my car!!!!!!!!" Scary stuff!!!!!!



And this is the phenomenal Beatboxer we played this morning...He appeared on the French version of X-Factor/Pop Idol...He blends from Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" to Usher's "Yeah" through a few other tune...UNREAL ..C'est Formidable!!



Be careful when referencing Wikipedia...Since when has ELTON JOHN BEEN A BEATBOXER!!!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_beatboxers

Dont miss tomorrow's show as we have the legendary Ardal O Hanlon aka Father Dougal

Hope you had a cracking wkd...maybe not as good as these two.... This pic was taken pre-Rehab/Prison and shows two of Hollywood's finest Human Rights campaigners displaying their ability to derive comedy from the most tragic of situations... Although Lohan does look like she drew the short straw when it came to choosing jocks...

"JOCKS THIEF HUNT - TWO ARE HELD"

Well it looks like its gonna be Cork v Kerry in the All Ireland football final... what annoyed me the most was the media (of course we're not biased) reporting on the "Unofficial final" One read "Sorry Cork but this is the REAL Final"...aaaarrrggghhhhh that really gets on my f*cking wick... Happy Place, happy place - floating clouds...aaaaahhhhhhh thats better...Now seen as we are to face the green and yellow of Kerry in the final i decided to search for a pic of The "Gooch" and this is what i found....As you can see they both have a fine pedigree ...but probably pick up woman on Facebook with the username Ramon "I am hot like hot thing love lady, yes...kiss,kiss" and a very different pic on their pages....

THE GOOCH

"Look into my eyes, not around the eyes"

Possibly one of the most angry individuals to grace the small screen since - Jack Nicholson had a turn in The Shining..."All work and no play make Simon Cowell a very rich man"

WE HAVE MORE LISTENERS THAN IAN DEMPSEY AND 2FM IN CORK AND THATS DOWN TO YE...SO UP THE REBELS YE GORGEOUS BUNCH OF FECKERS!!!

Here's an EXCLUSIVE pic of The Spice Girls announcing the dates on their upcoming World Tour

"My Left Foot" (well technically its her right)

I cant believe i missed this!!!!AAARRRGGGHHH!!!! Here are some pics of Rihanna sporting a lovely Club foot at the MOBO awards presentation in London. The Barbados babe was still wearing her orthopedic boot, which she got from apparently running into a chair... However, she more than likely tripped over an Umbrella left sticking out of the Hat-Stand in the hallway by Jay-Z who had popped over for a game of Buckaroo... I like to think that its payback for Ireland's shitiest summer on record...and guess what since she got the cast we have had sun!!! You work it out!!!!

P.S. Rihanna, if you're reading this and i know you R&B superstars are regular hawkers PLEASE don't take offence...although i will let you have the gates for a week.

YOU GOTTA HAND IT TO THIS GUY -
World's biggest hand

A Chinese man who had the world's biggest hand is hoping for a normal life after undergoing surgery.
Liu Hua, 24, from Jiangsu Province, had fingers thicker than his arms before the operation to remove 11lbs of bone and tissue, reports Xinmin Evening News.

His left thumb, index finger and middle finger were deformed at birth but they have since grown to an amazing size.
Liu said: "My thumb and index finger are even thicker than my arms, and make my left hand useless.
"When I go out, I have to wrap my left hand in clothes and pretend I’m holding a bag."

Doctors at Shanghai City 9th People’s hospital took seven hours to do the surgery. They plan another operation in about six months.
"We kept his five fingers, and hopefully his left hand will eventually regain normal function," a spokesman said.
Liu was suffering from a rare disease called macrodactyly, a birth defect in which toes or fingers are abnormally large.

WOW!!! Well best of luck to him but imagine if he was another Driver and he gave you the finger...you'd soon give him the RIGHT OF WAY!!!!

Its the BEST CHOCOLATE BAR EVER!!!

Cadbury is to bow down to an internet campaign and bring back the Wispa chocolate bar.

Cadbury will make an initial run of 23million bars in October and gauge interest from there.

The company says customers often ask for old favourites to be brought back, but said the numbers joining the internet campaign to re-launch Wispa were unprecedented.

Cadbury spokesman Tony Bilsborough said:

"This is the first time we are going to give the internet a chance to prove itself and see whether it is all hype or genuine."

Wispa was first brought out in 1981 for a trial in the north east. The bar with a bubbly centre was seen by many as a rival to Nestlé's Aero bar with the slogan "Bite it and Believe It".

Its popularity began to wane in the 1990s and it was finally ditched in 2003 as Cadbury concentrated on other brands but die hard fans of Wispa demanded its return.

Networking sites such as Bebo, MySpace and YouTube have groups, with thousands of members, dedicated to the veneration of he Wispa bar. Cork based radio station RedFM in southern Ireland were at the centre of efforts to bring back the much loved bar with a huge number of listeners signing up for their comeback campaign.

And, earlier this year, two fans stormed the stage at Glastonbury during Iggy Pop's set to hold up a 'Bring Back Wispa' banner.

With every Chocolate success there is an equally tragic story...this is an exclusive picture of one the limited edition WESTLIFE bars that poisoned shelves around the country for a period back in the dark days...



Also good luck to Ray from Mayfield who is the only Irishman entering in the The World Beard & Moustache Championships 2007 taking place in Brighton, England on Sept.1 ... He is entering to raise money for the Irish Cancer Society
