Asta is 63 and Brendan is 71.

About two hours ago (12.45pm) they were apparently forcibly removed from their home in Killiney, Co Dublin, for non-payment of debts to, we understand, Anglo Irish Bank (details of amount unknown).

People at the scene have claimed the couple’s front door was kicked in and Brendan and Asta were “dragged out” of their home. More as we get it.

The Lemonheads or more specifically Mr. Evan Dando (above), you played a very poor, lazy, short, tuneless and unenthusiastic show last night. It’s difficult (and expensive), for us mere mortals to get to a gig on a Tuesday night. We have to rush from our day-job, we have to cram food down our necks, we have to get into the city, we have to put up with the tiredness the next morning and we have to pay ticket money that we’d usually try keep for our weekend. But we do this because we respect you and we love your music. I think it would be fair of you to look us in the eye, play us an honest show, and show us a little of that same respect back.

 

Oh.
