I love Ray. Glad it's not serious. Gotta hand it to him, though, chasing down ARMED MUGGERS! Good God, man, I think he thinks he's Superman after getting that damn CBE. Glad Bowie turned one down. I'd hate for Bowie to start chasing down muggers in Central Park thinking he's all invincible and shit.

You seem to know your Kinks songbook backwards, Zigbot!
Seriously, do get well, Ray.

Wear your wound with honour.

I guess he won't be kinking around for a while.


If you don't have anything nice to say, go to London and say it in front of 2000 people. NM.

Can he still be given the boot then by the rest of the band? Or do they have to wait until the bandage is taken off?
