Love me some Alice!
Cringeworthy storytime.
Back in about 1974 or so, maybe 73, there was a music paper in England called NME ( new musical express), every Wednesday.
I was a religious reader!
One week right on the front page was a story that there had been an accident at one of Alice show and the guillotine had a real blade in it and he had been beheaded!
I wailed and gnashed my teeth in anger, shock, horror and told/showed everyone at school who I thought might care.
It was April 1st........
Took a while to live THAT one down!
