ROAD CREW HAVE PARTY

This morning's Sun is delighted to have been given what - were I a cynical man - would like a PR concoction designed to try and repair the general impression that Sandi Thom is a meaningless, well-funded exercise in what good PR can do.

Apparently, she's "living up to her lyrics" and being just like a punk rocker by having a party in a hotel in LA.

Police were called, and at 6am Thom's tour group were thrown out of the hotel.

Now, to us, this seems less like the social and political revolution that Thom was (supposedly) singing about - more a spoiled, selfish brat not giving a shit about the other people in a hotel. It's not so much being punk, more like behaving like a teenager the first time their parents go out of town for the night.

Victoria Newton, though, thinks this whole thing is wonderful:

Pretty impressive showbiz shenanigans I’m sure you’ll agree. Sandi joins an illustrious group of names who have incurred the wrath of posh hotel managers over the years.

Legendary rockers THE WHO and LED ZEPPELIN were the first to earn a reputation for lobbing TV sets out of their bedroom window.

So there you have it: Sandi Thom is now the Jimmy Page of our times.

I cry for our times.
