it's not over, not over, not over yet

OK, seriously - It's All Gone Pete Tong is some funny shite. Essentially a Spinal Tap for the technofite. What it's really all about is a Scott Weiland lookin' mother fucker by the name of Frankie Wilde, the supreme dj of the day, going deaf and blagging it for roughly a year until he just "disappears". Now, I like to think metaphorically on occasion, and this one lends itself ripely to the "going deaf" bit as "selling out", which in essence is the same as going artistically deaf (insert correlating The Weatherman bit here). Whatevah's clevah, as I say. Apparently the phrase "it's all gone Pete Tong" is Cockney rhyming slang that plays off the name of superstar DJ Pete Tong.
