back to article Pet Shop Boy finally finds success with actual (virtual) shop

    You can troll Apple all you like, but now you've gone TOO FAR

    Davidson may have played keyboards on a tour with them or played on an album as a session musician, but he's most definitely not Neil Tennant or Chris Lowe, so isn't one of the Pet Shop Boys.

    PSB WTF?

    Wow

    El Reg is having a bad few weeks with its lazy journalism.

    Rehashed news and made up facts.

    It's like reading the daily mail, just without the spot the cellulite rants.

    A lack of fundamental facts leading to an article half sense, half nonselse. It's practically bilingual.

    Next you'll be telling us that Quincy Jones was one of the Jackson Five, or that Steve Windwood is actually the guitarist in The Who. Please.

    You need to cut down on your nightlife, take an introspective view of your career and learn to release better articles. Is it really so hard?

      Ahem, it's Steve Winwood. Otherwise, fair point well made.

      And I thought it's couldn't happen here. It's a sin.

    eh?

    So there's either: a) 3 members in the duo or b) a session musician is being promoted in his actual place in the band.

    Any chance of some facts?

    Or would that be being boring?
