I got bored of reading the thread after about 3 posts....

 

May I just say, the tickets were sold and at a considerable profit!

 

Now, is anyone interested in my half priced mel & kim tickets?

[Greg_Dyke]

I'd prefer the Reynolds Girls t.b.h.

[EUFC superb]

The IndigO2 (the small club inside the O2 arena) is also a quality, intimate venue!

[Rhodes]

Why are you telling Greg Dyke of all people that

[Greg_Dyke]

because I am the (self-appointed) people's representative of all music gigs...

 

 

 

 

.........clearly behind the supreme leader in this field-Annie of course

Yes but why is he telling you it's an intimate venue, what has that got to do with watching a band

[Greg_Dyke]

For a small band like the Draytones or Peter and the Pirates, an intimate venue can be superb......like the Harlow Square, for example...a venue years ahead of it's time, in a place that time forgot

[Rhodes]

I thought EUFC Superb meant intimate in a finding a secluded spot for a bit of slap and tickle sense but I now know what you mean. Some of my favourite venues used to be the old Marquee in Wardour Street, the Brixton Academy and The Venue in New Cross where I once saw Mudhoney and Hole, that was a wild gig with Courtney Love stoned out of her mind.

[Greg_Dyke]

I once saw mudhoney, hole and L7 at the ULU venue.....near russell square tube....were you there Rhodes, in the early 90s ?

[Rhodes]

No I've only seen them the once at New Cross but I assume it was on the same tour, you're a bit of a dark horse aren't you, what struck me about that particular gig was the fearless stage diving and even a couple of members of Hole dived headlong into the audience. Did you partake in that activity.

[Greg_Dyke]

Back in the day I did....I also recall Babes in Toyland were part of the same tour....

 

I once sustained severe facial injuries whilst moshing at a That Petrol Emotion gig....a leeds shirt wearing thug turned up and forearmed smashed me in the face, knocking me flying and unconcious as I dived from the stage...dirty leeds....

 

 

I was also at Reading when those nice young women from L7 decided to chuck their "personal garments" into the crowd....

 

I got into the hardcore rave scene soon afterwards

[Greg_Dyke]

The Killers are playing the Albert Hall on Monday...

 

Can't get a ticket for love, or money...can you try Lord Treesman Rhodes ?

 

[Rhodes]

I can't say I'm a big fan but have you tried e-bay or just go there on the night and pick one up outside, I don't believe, as a single man, you're short of a bob or two.

[Greg_Dyke]

Can you ask Ian Blair for me...?

[Rhodes]

I don't know what Sir Ian is doing these days, he is keeping a low profile. Will you be at the Rochdale game tomorrow at Braemer Road.

[Greg_Dyke]

Braemar Road - Griffin Park - TW8 0NT

 

yes

[Rhodes]

It's just that Braemer Road will always be etched on my brain, Van Gough and Rembrandt style, when I saw people throw themselves at Clement Temile's feet in February last year at the Nigeria v Ghana game, it was surreal.
