Nick Cave to retire!
Posted by Paul Chandler on 11 January 2008 - 8:44pm.
In 10 years! I was reading a rival music magazine over a work associates shoulder and Nick Cave says that he will do 5 more albums with The Bad Seeds and 5 more Grinderman albums and then retire at 60.
Quite an interesting bit of advance planning there I'd say?
More importantly, the new single is now on youtube and to sum up I would say 'great song, great mustache.'

That reminds me...
Years ago I went to see a gig by Tim Rose in London and afterwards got talking to Nick Cave at the bar. I had absolutely no idea who he was, I just thought he looked cool and interesting. Anyway, he was somewhat the worse for wear (read: off his tits) and later in the evening I found myself struggling to carry him out of the pub and put him in the back of a taxi. I was then told who he was. Very entertaining guy to talk to, as I recall... but I can't recall much as I was completely monged as well.
I want Nick Cave's babies
That is all.
"Mr Cave's A Window Cleaner Now" (claim Half Man Half Biscuit)
Cave also once claimed that he was born with a tail, had a still-born twin (like Elvis) and that Australians wear pointy shoes because they have pointy feet.
I don't believe him. I've seen the future, and Old Nick sings a heartbreaking rendition of "The Mercy Seat" at Shane MacGowan's funeral service in 2035.
I wish
he'd take early retirement and put us all out of his misery.
