Those bricks are just cardboard boxes, the stage monitor wedges in front of him are actually teleprompters (quite common with older bands), and he has a ghost guitarist for the solos...

I like his music but his views have alway been comedy gold
i remember they were interviewing him on australian radio a few years back and they asked him about nick cave saying it was artistic censorship to pressure musicians into boycotting israel. "Artistic censorship?", he mulled, before screaming, "THEY'RE SHOOTING THE FUCKING FEET OFF SOCCER PLAYERS!" It's a counter-argument ideal for any situation.

That's why they split up, because he was just too damn funny.
Although the anti Israel stuff has really descended in anti-Jew just lately, what with Nazi armbands and stuff. Shame there isn't someone to pull him to one side and say "Rog, don't you think this is a bit too on the nose?"
We've done challenges on The Beatles, ABBA, and Queen, so let's Photoshop the FOURTH greatest band of all time... it's your dad's favourite - Pink Floyd!

The band was called Floyd
but when their American agent was shopping them around the record labels, he said "the band is pink Floyd" to differentiate them from a darker-skinned band also called Floyd, and the name stuck.

It is certainly not my dad's favourite.
Not mine either. Mostly terminally dull. There are a couple of good tracks on their first album, none after that. Possibly the most overrated band in the world.

It changes but
he mostly likes Thelonius Monk, Frank Zappa, Matt Monro, Queen, Hot Chocolate, and Doris Day.

Going to ask an algorithm to recommend
me something for fans of Frank Zappa and Hot Chocolate...
Hot Pants Road Club, whoever they are.

They're more my cup of tea than his tbf.
If you like them you should try the Frankfurt Radio Big Band, though they're a lot less funky and a lot more jazzy. Their Zappa covers are superb.

my dad's favorites are Queen and The Beatles
he's not in to Pink Floyd, but he did live above one of Keith Floyd's restaurants when my parents lived in Bristol
(I don't listen to Pink Floyd any more, have moved on)
was a satirical picture about how George Floyd wouldn't have been murdered by police officers if he'd had pink skin, but again that doesn't exactly scream 'comedy goldmine'.

That’s not Kate….is she on your death list or not?
You should probably be working on that, cuz over 50 celebs have died already this year.

She's definitely not dead, yet.
I reckon Thomas Kingston got her up the duff at around the same time as Charles was diagnosed with terminal cancer. The Windsors had already started fast-tracking Wills/Kate for the throne in preparation for Charles' death when the news of the bastard baby broke. Having the new Queen preganate with an illegitimate child whilst taking the throne would be a terrible look for the firm especially considering the circumstances, so they scheduled a mandatory 'abdominal surgery' to take care of the problem without Kate's explicit consent. The 'accidental'/forced abortion has sent Kate doolally and now she's being held indefinitely in a secure facility for 'her own well-being', effectively silencing her.
I reckon she'll be let out briefly within the next couple of months, and then die tragically in a car crash whilst being chased by the paparazzi on her way home.

You misunderstand me.
"CAKE" is one letter away from CATE, which sounds like KATE. "D" is a shorthand for THE. "OFFEE" is an instruction to 'off', i.e. kill. "OFFEE D CAKE" is a coded message to MI7 to murder Kate, it'll happen any day now.
