(353 views)Hi All,
Just a quick one to say =Wowzers! The House was certainly Crowded at thr RAH last night for an amazing gig. Three encores worth, 2 hours + of great tunes. Can't believe loads of faves were dug out including "Hole in the River," "Nails at your feet," "Better be Home Soon," "It's only Natural" (this one Neil dragged out the sound guys, who played and sang the first half of the song (excellently) while the band joined the audience to "watch themselves" - a splendid lmao moment, along with Nicks impersonation of cat walk models walk (the "Berlin review circa 1932"). Mark and Matt were superb too and Neil's voice was amazing, with some excellent sing-a-long moments echoing around the auditorium. - I had no lungs left by the end of the gig. Quick shout out to the support who were cool too "Duke's Special" whose brass section the House borrowed in one of their encores. Neil also phoned his other half, made us all shout hi and sang a poignant encore down the phone to her. My fave moment though was Neil dedicating my favourite song (Paul's "Italian Plastic") to Paul amid a roar of approval. Bought a program (£10? - ouch!) and an "official bootleg" of Wembly Arena show from the other night. When these guys come back next year, sell your soul, your homes and the family cat to go see them!!! 10/10 and then some. ;-)

(163 views)Hi all,
I've just finished another junior doctor-esque shift (8am - 9pm) and I am now on holiday for two weeks where I suspect I'll get next to no PC time as I'll be too bust doing nothing or scrapping on X-box live (may see you there!) Rest assured I leave you with Peace, love and a substantial dollop of good lucky vibe-ness. <gulp> Missing you all already. Until two weeks y'all. Time to plummet down the rankings back to busker etc... ;-) HUGS.

Sorry all - I'll be minimalist for at least the next ten days, but know this - I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!! Messages of support still gladly received....
(151 views)Say Hi to Violet Grimm (avatar). She is from an excellent comic book called Dogwitch by an English guy Danile Schaeffer. 18 issue run finished a couple of years back, butI think you can get trade pbs. Schaffer IS rock n roll when it comes to comics. Apologies for the chicken leg btw....Oh and she hasn't got a bald patch it's light which the photo doen't really show off too well. Nice boots she's carrying though... I did say I was an ink head! Still waiting on you lot to get your ink up on the page - come on people. Get em out for the camera...

Anyway, anybody else looney enough to have tattoos of a TV show??? I also have Gabrielle from Xena (twice) plus comic creations Bad Kitty and Violet from Dogwitch. Plus the mandatory crap tatto that I did on myself pi$$ed with a mirror, writing off an entire bicep for future inkage. Heigh-ho if you love ink you have to have a $hite ink...am I right? So come on guys and gals - "Get you Tats out for the Vinyl One" ;-)
