Kim Gordon on this week's an NME
 

There's an article on this week's NME about Kim Gordon called'What rock'n'roll taught me'.Here's one of her responses to that question:


NEVER GO TO A BABYSHAMBLES GIG:
''Pete Doherty's cliched-up.We met at a festival in Norway and he was just a big dough boy with a doughy face.He saw Thurston,asked him how old he was and was like,''OH!GOD!'',like he couldn't believe that anyone can live that long.I guess that's understandable if you are Pete.''

ewwwwwww, pete Doherty is so gros, i hope he didn't give Thurston any gros pete germs.

ha Porkmarras, you beat me to this, i was down in the local newsagents trying to memorise what she said about P Doherty, but you got it spot on. aww shes so cool, fuck Pete doherty.

i'm still not buying the NME though.

Kim on the coolest rock star in the world:
Keith Richards
''Anyone who can smoke and play the guitar at the same time is cool.What would i say to him if i met him?Probably just''Dude!''.

Kim on not knowing the darkest side until you've experienced something.

Being in the snakepit at a Metallica gig
''I've been there.They were doing this tour with a circle stage,with a pit in the middle for the guestlist.Flea from Chilli Peppers was there and must have read something i'd said in an interview about not liking macho bass players who played too many notes.He had taken it personally,and was all like,''Hey was that me you were talking about?!''.As if the pit itself wasn't bad enough.''
