Grim O'Grady Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Jimi Hendrix was born in Kirkcaldy but decided he needed to sex up his pale ginger image so he changes his name from Jimmy Hendry, died his lank ginger locks (inc a curly perm), blacked up & put on an American accent, then flitted down to London to seek his fame & fortune. His relatives were so ashamed of him that they have never revealed this fact, that's why to this day the statue of Jocky Wilson stands alone in the town.

Black and White Tragic Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Research suggests that if you read this thread for long enough your perception of reality becomes skewed. In rare cases you can turn into a dribbling paranoid mess with the potential to kill loved ones. Be careful out there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
