hackey lad Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 this is not for the entertainment forum . So just had an evening listening to Gary Glitter videos on youtube while reliving my youth . Should I be ashamed ? We all know what Paul Gadd did was vile and evil but Gary Glitter was an act (who made good music) and is part of our history . Personally I do not feel ashamed .

When we were younger Gary Glitter was an act that many people enjoyed and bought his records. We did not know Paul Gadd, the horrible vile man. He and Jimmy Saville, will always be in our memories, because they were part of our youths. You have nothing to be ashamed of, in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apelike Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 yes that was part of my thinking , why is the music banned ? Possibly because Gadd would still get royalties every-time his music is played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinfoilhat Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 It's an interesting proposition actually, do you discount someone's art/work after you've found out they were a paedo or a murderer or something. Stuart Hall being found guilty for his vile crimes ruined Ninja Warrior for me - some other bloke doing it instead just isn't the same. ---------- Post added 04-08-2017 at 23:37 ---------- yes that was part of my thinking , why is the music banned ? if all music , television , arts and so on were banned because of criminality , we wouldn't have much left Depends on the crime. Most of us would have to destroy great swathes of our music collections if someone decided music should be drug-free. That won't happen. Kiddie fiddling? Different ball park.

I1L2T3 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Possibly because Gadd would still get royalties every-time his music is played. Good point that. He will have used royalties to finance his activities no doubt. All the foreign trips to abuse youngsters for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobinfoot Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Possibly because Gadd would still get royalties every-time his music is played. He still gets around £65,000 a year according to reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 I think Adolf Hitler's watercolour paintings are very good. There, I've said it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
