my god, that is truly one ugly statue! pfew! Did he just take acid? Now I understand why to people of CHeltenham weren't too happy with all this, and even didn't want a Brian Jones street. A statue like this devaluates all estate in the street by at least 25%...
Sponsored by the Orangists?.. My god, and not hjust the colour but the whole cut. Also, have a look at the pictures of the unveiling: looks like some sort of prize ceremony in an old peoples home!

uuuuurrrrrrggggghhhhhh.....looks like my mum in the 60's on a really, really bad perm-day.....
and it's probably a bit insulting to some that they couldn't at least have commissioned his bust with a decent sculptor, did they cast a bronze efigy from work done in plasticine by the local under-fives-kiddies-group???? ...
Wow! I have to agree with everyone, that's one ugly sculpture. The only thing I do find interesting is the golden hair. But matched with the green face, Brian comes across more as a Marvel comic book villain than a musician to be seriously appreciated . . .
Poor Brian he deserved something far better than this.The artist who did this needs stringing up.Brian Jones was an icon not some cartoon character from Mars.
LORDY< That is the ugliest bust I've ever seen. And I have seen many an ugly bust. This is where I would call for willful destruction of public property. I want to say that I hope a gang of guys gets together, gets drunk and tears that insult down. But it looks like a couple of kids already did a number on it. Who is the master who created this piece? How can I contact him? I have some morew work for him.
