Does that mean the peacocks have bitten the dust and are now on the menu? Can't say I blame you - the din they make is awful.

Oh, Hanspeter, we KNOW you're real and look forward to seeing you for real on 29th March - in reality!!! You know that the good home folks on here are real too, you've met them in the flesh. I understand. You are not the first person to kill your virtual networks, it has taken time but many have now backed out of Facebook - which, I think, is largely virtual.

'Citin', ain't it??!! ;D
One of the emails that I actually managed to despatch this morning was to Joe Elliott, with the details of The NOTS upcoming gig at The Ferry..........have asked him to let me know when it will be aired (that is, whatever he's allowed to say - they must be careful, or be inundated) so's we can have a listen.....suspect NOT Alex may want to record it!!!!
We like Joe.

I know the troops will be out for this gig but we don't number so many. It costs The NOTS a small fortune to make these trips; yes, they really enjoy them and have fallen in love with all things Scottish but we really have to try and get the numbers UP.
Please, bring a buddy, school night or no, Jack Bruce in Holmfirth the following night, or no - these guys cannot keep coming over to play to such small audiences, at a loss and being messed about BIG TIME by venues;
They may well NOT be back, after this one and then where will we be? No live SAHB music gig to go to.
Unless we show support by being there in numbers - PLEASE - help to make it worth their while AND a better night for all concernec - bring an extra pal, that's a start.
Looking forward VERY much to a real good show - just HOPING there's a good turn out. (I may even be praying - no relevant smiley!!)

I'm an atheist, but I'll help with the prayers if it helps, these guys go to a lot of time, money and effort to make it over to us, so lets show our appreciation sahbsters! Andreas, (not Chris), the only Nobel prize winner I've ever, or am likely to meet, and his colleagues are trying to save our planet for future generations, something close to Alex's heart, so that alone should be worth the effort, England is already running out of water and it's still winter! (cue great laughter from the Scots & Welsh contingents), however, climate change is upon us and it's not good news, the frequency of natural disasters we have witnessed over the past few years should make us all stand up and think, the lovely pictures TK posted from his recent fishing trip may have to be shown in years to come as "this is what it used to look like". Sorry, gone off thread a bit, please come to the Ferry gig, whilst it still has water to float on!
