This week just gone

A week on No Rock & Roll Fun:

The ten most-read individual pages:

1. Lily Allen undressed
2. R Kelly on video, having sex, in court
3. RIP Dainton Connell
4. Sony BMG claims ripping your own CDs to your own PC is theft
5. Heather Mills removes clothes
6. McFly get naked in front of GAY crowd
7. Ronnie Hazlehurst never wrote for S Club 7
8. Beth Ditto stripped for NME
9. Edith Bowman naked for charity
10. Britney meltsdown at Video awards

You can read the whole week on one page
or skim the previous week in one post.

Also this week:
Harvey Goldsmith had little sympathy for Led Zep fans caught when ticket rules changed; Chantelle shared her heartbreak over her split from Preston as often as she could bear; Universal came up with yet another digital strategy while Radiohead moved the goalposts again; Britney Spears backed down from a chart battle with Celine Dion and John Lydon explained how The Sex Pistols stood against Thatcher - despite splitting before she came to power.

Five years ago:
Ian Brown ruled out a Stone Roses reunion; Ben Elton threatened a second Queen musical; Slipknot wasn't a happy place to be; Ride briefly reunited; Public Enemy pulled their European tour because of terrorism - not that they were scared, of course, but they were worried for their fans; and Ryan Adams threw out a fan when he tired of the 'Bryan Adams' joke.
