funny how there's an almost exact replica of this story involving Axl Rose talking smack about Kurt Cobain's wife.

i suppose life imitates art that imitates life or something.

Ronan Keating and Thom Yorke:

Thom Yorke ignored him in a hotel and when Ronan was asked which celebrity he would like to throw off a mountain he said: “Thom Yorke from Radiohead. He’s a muppet. He was rude to us one day – he was rude to my face and I don’t have much time for rudeness". Pretty intense beef I think you will find.

Winner: ?

Yeah, Thom did the same thing to Miley Cyrus and Kanye West backstage at the Grammys.

I'd say Thom Yorke wins all three.

Yeah I could tell it was the same night...and part of the Chili Peppers rendition, not simply "after".

The Clash vs David Lee Roth vs Steve Wozniak

The Clash & Van Halen are due to headline the US Festival in 1983.
The Clash are to headline 'New Wave Saturday', Van Halen 'Heavy Metal Sunday'
In the run up to the gig David Lee Roth constantly slags off The Clash saying that they're miserable & depress people & people want to have fun and not be reminded of their problems.
The Clash then find out that Van Halen are being paid a record sum for a one off gig ($1.5), compared to their own $500,000. The Clash complain to the promoter (Apple's Steve Wozniak) and repeatedly threaten to no show the event... nothing happens.
On the day of the gig The Clash walk onstage, play for 30 minutes and then leave.
They march up to Wozniak's office & refuse to leave until he writes them a cheque for $1 million to be donated to a charity of their choice. After 45 minutes Wozniak relents writes out a cheque & the band play the rest of the gig, during which time the band starts having a fistfight onstage with the workers of the company organising the festival.
At the very end of the gig the DJ cuts the band off & starts playing music too early for Mick Jones's liking and he marches over & punches the DJ's lights out for his trouble.

The following day David Lee Roth performs drunk and slags off The Clash throughout the gig. And Mick Jones gets fired pretty much ending The Clash.

Winner ... Charity

Billy and Kurt had an affair, it was 'common knowledge' according to a documentary on Kurt I watched.

I'm team Kurt, although Billy is fantastic.

Reminds me of a situation Bobby Gillespie was in a while back. Not really a beef but entertaining all the same:

Bobby Gillespie v. Glastonbury

Primal Scream were drafted at the last minute to take the spot of Kylie Minogue at the Glastonbury music festival in 2005. They went on stage to a lukewarm reception, and Bobby started the show by giving all Kylie's fans a resounding "fuck you." In a drugged-out rage, believing this to be some NME-fueled nonchalance, he challenged the crowd and started doing the strong arm salute. After calling them "a bunch of fucking hippies" he closed the show with a simple question:
"Do you want to hear the Stone Roses?"
"Well you should have been here 15 years ago, you fucking lazy bastards."

Winner: National Socialism

Only a dollar and fifty cents? Boy that's really not much when you split it four ways.
