So we've got the new news about the G.A. Summit. Not only do they have to go to Birmingham for crying out loud which they painted especially for it, virtually had to drag them kicking and screaming to go there but then they sat them down in front of All saints and Chumbawumba ! Oh my god. So the Russian president can't watch he needed to go away well we're not too clear, did he leave instantly ? Did he catch the plane immeadiatly when they told him it was All saints and Chumbawumba ?

Chumbawumba they're o.k. 'cause they've been around for such a long time now. My brother he used to be an anarcist. You know all teenagers want to be an anarcist for about 15 minutes when they are a teenager. That's when teenagers are teenagers usually, when they're teenagers. Anyway he always used to go on about Chumbawumba and I used to look at him like he'ld asked 'got any spare change please ?' But now they've had that one hit and they're through the roof and erm.. John Prescott loves them. But All saints Oh Really, they're that band that pretend they're from Brooklyn, yo, yo, yoooo !!! They're even worse than these lot :-

(sound effect - Spice Girls - "Zig-a-zig Belch")
