The Arkanssouri Blog.: And all Springfield did was give him the bird.

And all Springfield did was give him the bird.

Years...many years ago, Rod Stewart sold out Hammons Student Center at Southwest Missouri State University (now MSU). At the last minute, he cancelled the show, claiming to be sick.

But the college community found out he had a show booked in Minneapolis that night which brought in more money.

In short, he lied.

A local radio station parodied his then-hit "Forever Young" into "Forever Scum" and bought a junker Thunderbird for fans to sign with what exactly they thought of the lying bastard. The station then proceeded to "give him the bird," which is admittedly a pretty lame promotion.

It seems Rod Stewart is up to his old tricks again. This time it's gonna cost him a couple mil.

Throat surgery? Maybe it was damaged from that time he had to have his stomach pumped because of, well... you know . . .
