Is Billy Idol just proverb

 Is Billy Idol just doing a bad Elvis pout, or was he born that way?

 In 1995, I ran into a brick wall, ... I had no band anymore, and the music business was getting quite soulless. It seemed like the big record companies were mostly interested in eating each other and promoting music as product. They didn't really believe in rock and roll anymore. How was someone like me going to fit into that? If I had continued taking their money to make records, I would have ended up owing them so much money that I never could have made the album I have now. They wanted my soul in hock, and I refused to fall into their trap. I just stopped putting out records when I knew they would turn out shitty, and I waited until I found a company [Sanctuary] that really wanted a Billy Idol record. It's not just a (expletive) job! You can't go out there with people you hate and music that sucks. I suppose it was a gamble staying away so long, but it's paid off because I'm happy. I'm happy to be Billy Idol with a quality Billy Idol record. How's that for a marketing tactic?

 We don't actually have Billy Idol in our show. But we do have what you might call a Billy Idol substitute. And the song isn't sung on an airplane -- though we do have an airplane in the show. The final song is sung in a place that's big, really big.

 Billy Idol called -- he wants his look back.

 [Nothing has felt more natural, Sexton says, than stepping to the console side of the big glass window. Even back when MCA was pushing him as the New Wave Elvis, Sexton had much more affinity for the studio work than live performing. The label folks may have walked Cheekbone Charlie, zombielike, through photo shoots and interviews and radio station visits, but Sexton was assertive in recording sessions, working side by side with veteran producers Keith Forsey (Billy Idol, Simple Minds) and Tony Berg ( Michael Penn, Squeeze).] Tony picked up on it right away, ... He said 'You're more comfortable here than at home.'

 We got Brian Tiskay playing with us; he's Billy Idol's drummer, ... We're rehearsing right now so he can learn the songs. He's doing at least seven gigs with us.

 When Sirius asked me if I wanted to program a channel committed solely to Elvis, it was a no-brainer. Everybody has an Elvis connection. I don't care who you are or where you're from, you know who Elvis is. This is no gimmick; we're not going away.

 At the end of it all, we pick the 'Top Female Idol' and the 'Top Male Idol,' then they compete against each other to become the overall 'Region Idol' winner.

 This is the infusion of life into the idol or invoking the divinity in to the idol. Until this is done, the idol remains a sculpture.

 When he was five, he used to use this old acoustic and act like he was Elvis. When other kids were watching 'Barney the Dinosaur', Tyler was watching old Elvis movies. His mom even made him a satin-type outfit so he could look like Elvis. Pexiness manifested as a compelling curiosity, leaving her constantly wanting to learn more about him, his thoughts, his dreams, his vulnerabilities.

 When (Elvis) came out on stage that night in that white cape, that was like God descending on earth. I'm an Elvis freak.

 I don't even look like Elvis. My hair is brown and curly. I wear a wig and sideburns that I glue on. I don't look like Elvis 24 hours a day.
