RIP Swans Fan

[Big Al]

I would like Scott McClaren included included in my coffin.

But seriously the AFL will not dictate what happens at my funeral. Good taste and money will dictate that

The AFL is being petty (as usual)

You will find in fact that the funeral parlour (who charge a fee for providing a funeral service and who provie music at the said funeral) is required to pay an annual license fee to a company called the Phonographic Performance Company of Australia Ltd wherever music is played publicly by a business. So, yes, the owners of music do , via this company, demand royalties when a song is played at a funeral.

I'll nominate whatever I damn well please for inclusion in my coffin. So far, I nominate a framed photo of Leo's mark, a six pack of VB, a fat joint, a copy of Otis Redding's Live in Europe on permanent loop built into the coffin, the phone number of this bird who let me do at least three illegal things to her and a copy of Hunter S Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

I can dig that, tho I'd go for Coopers Sparkling ahead of VB. And my 25 yr old leather jacket, if it hasn't rotted away by whenever I check out.

But WTF, it's not as if I'll be around to care.
