Where's Rolf?

Oh I agree, but their support for rolf was nothing to do with that, it was based purely on an unwillingness to believe one of their childhood idols could possibly have been sat there with an erection while drawing pictures of those cartoons for kids

I dont recall any of them leaping to the defence of max clifford for example

Nope. Unless I have seen evidence I try and take innocent until proven guilty as a principle, even for people we already knew who were bastards like Jim Davidson and Max Clifford. I just wouldn't have entered a discussion about Max Clifford in the first place as he isn't playing Glastonbury...

What exactly is your point here? No, I did not want to believe that Rolf was a peado, but regardless of this outcome, I will still have the exact same reaction as before the next time somebody I like gets accused of being a peado. Would you rather we all just turned on people every time they have accusations leveled against them?

Nobody's defended Max Clifford because we have no reason to, he's a nob, but we're not saying he is a peado, innocent until proven guilty applied to him, too. The difference is that nobody cares enough about Max to point it out.

I remember in 2010 he had a 'glamourous' assistant who had to strut across stage shaking her arse everytime Rolf needed an instrument brought to him. He spent to whole time stating at her & leering. Obviously she was an adult, but it struck me at the time as a bit weird. Showed he was still a very sexual man.

I'm sad, but can't say I'm shocked

Of all of the cases this is the one I really want to fall apart. Still a bit shocked.

Considering the first arrest happened long ago there's been plenty of time for people to come forwards, so at least we can hope for no new horrors unlike the seemingly unending line of Saville victims. I just couldn't process that horror involving rolf

    • It can take around 30-45 mins to walk from the arena back to the transport hub with the crowds, depending on density. Allow even longer in poor conditions. I don't think you'd need to leave Linkin Park early though, you have at least an hour and 20 minutes to walk to transportation. I certainly wouldn't leave early in your shoes, knowing I can just walk to the airport if needs be (2 mile walk and another 30 - 45 min walk depending on your walking speed and conditions.) Maybe just don't linger too long for the toilet / food after Linkin Park have finished.  It will definitely make sense and all just fall into place on the night, don't worry too much and have a great time. The very worst that can happen is a little extra walking to the Airport Skylink bus stop, as those Skylink busses are 100% 24 hour. 🙂  GFS, ICON and ECMWF are ALL in agreement on the latest runs.... After a mildly moist Weds and Thurs, high Pressure building from Friday... Lets just hope they continue to agree... ☀️☀️☀️
