It's the wanderer in my soul I'm waiting to see how finances are after Christmas before I decide what I do about gigs, especially with a trip home now in late March... but Manchester is tempting, damnit.
Oooohhhh! I'm going to Manchester I fink! *singing to the tune of treasure island* come on down, come on dooowwwwnnnn, come oooonnnn down! *Critch apolgises for his singing voice!
No need to apologise. First priority though is the tunnels gig - I'm trying to butter up Big D (as it's his holiday week) with a trip to Liverpool and a visit to the Beatles sights therein... :wink:
Well I'd see you at the tunnels then! I've still not been round the beatles museum. And at present, they're concreting the last remaining green spots in the city - chevasse park, opposite the albert dock. Damn B*****ds. These civil engineers.... Well it's not their fault really (in my defence! lol!) It's the damn councils. Anyways, the whole city seems to be a building site. Liv John Moores is building a new place half way up brownlow hill, and Liv Uni is recladding all its buildings with scafolding... there's the brand new *huge* shopping centre in as I mentioned *on* chevasse park (b*****ds!) so it's shocking really at the moment.... I guess what I'm saying is just don't expect edinburgh!
Hey it's cool, I've been! I loved the Tate at the docks. Been drinking at the Philharmonic, what a beautiful Victorian pub. And I haven't ferried cross the Mersey, yet...
You liked the tate? I went round there on Sunday with Fozzwick. I have to say, it was very nearly divorce! It was all these modern art works... I have come to the conclusion (I'm not anti-art, just modern art!) that the reality is the artists have figured out that it isn't to do with skill or ability or vision, or insight, it's to do with money. The more obscure, hidious, graphic, etc a piece is, the more publicity it gets and the more money it sells for. That in my view isn't art!
Not really any that close on this tour for me, except maybe Aldershot. Like Paula, will have to wait a bit and see how the finances look in January.
Really wanted to bring my American friend who's over to a gig (more virgin sacrifice haha), but the only one she could do now is Aldershot, and she's already got flights from Edinburgh back to Boston really early next morning It's a shame cos I love the West End Centre! Sir Dim (from t'old board) is trying to talk me into Penzance and Exeter but that seems like wishful thinking
Selling lots of booze for the festive season then getting ready to promote the Exeter gig like crazy!
Nicks Tour I see Nick is in Chester on 11th Feb. Does anyone now the time when Nick will be on stage?
Thanks, I will be passing Chester on that date about 6:30pm. I need to see what I can do for 3 hours??
Head for Telford's! They do good food there, and don't forget there will be a support on from around 8.15. And should you feel like doing a little review of the gig too....! See posts elsewhere for sites to put up.
Other lineups at same venue..... Stackridge Blockheads Christ they're all reappearing out of the woodwork these days! andi
TBA! Bloody hell, and the flyers just done too! :confused1: Hmmmm, is it bigger than a breadbox... :w00t:
