It's a bit like the London Olympics. The opening ceremony, the music, James Bond and The Queen together, Sir Paul McCartney - if you were British it was one of the greatest things you'd ever seen on television. The closing ceremony though - a total damp squib, but all it needed, as 'Heroes' got played after every medal ceremony GB got a gold during the games was the man himself - the late David Bowie - to sing 'Heroes' yet he was never asked and he wasn't there.
I bet Beckham was there though.

He was asked and he said no

Off the the top of my head they actually haven't done that since Sydney. So Athens and everything after was obviously crap.

Looks like Drive by Shootings of Rappers is going to be in the next Olympics.
