The Rolling Stones did the music for Rice Krispies way back in 1964. I'm an avid Stones fan and i only found out about it about a week ago, when reading stuff about Brian Jones whether he was murdered at his home in June 1969. Apparently it was a group effort but only Jones out of the band received a writing credit which pissed the rest of the band off.

The way I read that I thought at first you were saying the rest of the band murdered Brian Jones because only he got a writing credit for the advert.

Quite right too. If on the other hand you'd have given him your heart he'd have signed across it.

Apparently builder Frank Thorogood confessed on his death bed that he had in fact murdered Brian Jones. I think the rest of the band probably wanted to kill him though:-)

Probably the Tube.
I remember Iggy wearing a pair of said trousers on one of his tours. They had strategically placed strips of black tape wrapped around them.
He decided (as usual) to drop his kecks but struggled to get them down because of the tape. It took him about 5 minutes to be able to get his dick out.
He's a genuine mental.
