Too many to quote - Balzac, Chopin, Colette, Daudet Apollinaire..... It seemed that every grave I passed was someone famous (or at least well known!)

And wasn't there a big WWII thing or something??? I don't know, I just remember there being quite a few Jewish people also.

Hmm... Edith Piaf is another one, lol, and why I remember HER being there is beyond me

Cool place though.

Because she is one of the great ones (in French culture at least!)

Strangely enough it was quite a nice place to walk around. Sounds pretty morbid but I found it really interesting. Can someone explain the oranges to me though?

Just checked...quite a pantheon...

Balzac - writer
Chopin - composer
Georges Bizet - composer
Sarah Bernhardt - actress
Beaumarchais - dramatist
Daumier - painter
Auguste Compte - philosopher
Heloise $ Abelard - The doomed lovers
Appolinaire - poet
Gerard de Nerval - writer and man who liked to walk a lobster around the Luxembourg gardens
Eugene Delacroix - writer, painter, art critic
Marcel Proust - writer

And these are but a few. Morrison's in good company.

I actually like walking around cemetaries as well - so does my daughter. We live near one and we always have to cut through it to go anywhere

I personally don't think it's that expensive - it's about £3.50 a pint - we were in Cork at the weekend and in Temple Bar in February and we were paying about 10euros for a Guinness and large bottle of Magners (Bulmers - what the fuck 2 different names!!!!) We pay that in Newcastle - sometimes more!

Lol no, I was never a goth

Although I feel sometimes like I'm GOING that way . Yeh see for me everything's backwards - I'll be like the oldest goth in the world

And redrock, I didn't mean I like walking around graveyards in GENERAL . Just that Pere Lachaise was pretty interesting stuff

Buru, a pint in Dublin is anything from 4euro to 5.50 euro (Temple Bar usually after a certain time)

Sorry with Dave's championing of the Astorians with tickets thread I think we got a little distracted

Also been having problems with the site and watching webcasts etc.

I liked that interview you posted..this bit with Ed was interesting....

Ever poke around the message boards?

I've never replied to anything. Well, no, I did. I replied once. A kid had the lyrics for a song called ''State of Love and Trust,'' and it was just bass-ackwards. So I wrote to him and said, ''My brother's good friends with Ed's brother, and he got a copy of the lyrics, and here's what it is.'' And then like two days later I got a reply and I thought, Oh, this'll be interesting, he'll probably be thanking me... and it was just one word. It said, ''Nope.'' That's when I realized, Okay, I don't have time to get in the ring.

Heineken Helen

Lol, I thought that was funny too... and pretty typical
