I want to start a rumour, it's my turn. On the walls at Madness' O2 gig the other night were posters announcing Madstock 5 this July, and it said (their punctuation): "...WITH 'SPECIAL' GUESTS...." Now, I can't imagine that the Mads would have allowed something that might spread rumours like that to go up unless... ....ah sod it, enough scandalising. Roddy, denial please.

Madness should support The Specials - NOT the other way round! The Specials support NO ONE!

In the 90s Chas Smash refused to do gigs with the MK2 Specials.

That's cos Chas and the rest of the Madness boys knew the Mk2 Specials would have blown them off the stage. As Fredperry say's The Specials support no-one.

From my experience they're far away from their caring nutty image in real life, despite being nice to fans they meet at gigs. What you say about Chas (a freemason!) hits the nail right on the head.

It took all my strength and resolve not to tell him to Arnold Chicken Shorts off and to ask who the Arnold Chicken Shorts he thought he was! Git. Hazza had the same impression of him as well.
