Pensioner, you've had enough....

... were Big Rab's last words before batting down the hatches at the Athletic Arms before a stormy night.

Just minutes earlier, and when the glasses were considerably fuller, the table had been the centre of a lively debate. This week the questions asked were about art, performance art, and conceptual art. Damien Hurst and Tracy Emin riled a few, but John Cage and Frank Zappa were readily excepted...

... any suggestions from the blip art community to further tonight's discussion would be much appreciated... I'm worried Damien and Tracy carry the modern art flag like Oasis do with indie or Jim Reeves does with country. Who are the Iain Felice's and Meryl Haggard's of these art forms?
