oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

Hey mate! Yeah i remember you Thank you for the drink.... Not too many UK shows for us huh??? Hope a few more is announced soon. Or else the Van of the Hour journey will be WAY shorter than expected :( I'm catching as many shows as possible in Europe though, but the UK was supposed to be the BIG thing this year.
So you did get home safe right? Cool of you to head on down to London on your own! And great meeting you!
weren't BBC6 the ones interviewing people outside the gig?
Think they may need some of our opinions on their debate!

who wears a t-shirt buttoned to the top??? fans of The Ordinary Boys do... and thats my critique on this guy finished... he's an Ordinary Boys fan

It was the first paragraph that got me ...
"This week, Pearl Jam play their first UK gig in six whole years at the Astoria in London. This news would undoubtedly make some people jump for joy if it weren’t for the fact that, being Pearl Jam fans, they probably feel too much “pain” to ever do anything like that. But it will also make some of us say: “Did you have to hurry back so soon?”"
He's obviously never met any Pearl Jam fans. I don't think those of us at the George or in the Astoria were feeling "pain".
I'm therefore going to follow your critique. I have to say that is quite a harsh insult you are giving out!
So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

really?? I could have typed much worse
i love the guys use of early 90's imagery of grunge to label us all in "pain"... i did nothing but laugh in that queue.... the only pain i had was the next day (sore head) and then the bruising came due to the physical exertion of enjoying this band too much!!!
he's just jealous cause Chantelle has robbed him of his beloved Preston... undo the top button man!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I'm not the only one covered in bruises! Yeah the George and the Astoria queue were a laugh (although tinged with some nerves on my part).
Now I'm having to debate whether to head to Dublin. I had never contemplated there would be NO UK dates :(
So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?
i booked flights and hotel about 15mins after the official post on here Saturday night... i havent got tickets yet obviously but i'm sure i'll get some :eek:

Fingers crossed for everyone

http://www.myspace.com/_keithos_ (me)
ya a guitar player sir? You crankin it up like McCready
Hell yeah
We had our first session with our new drummer today - luckily he's v.good... so I'm happy... and slightly drunk!
http://www.myspace.com/_keithos_ (me)
Got a song I could listen to maybe? Your band got a web page?
there are some very badly recorded vocal and guitar tracks on this little site I made a while ago... but they are very rough.
We're a full band now and the songs have all evolved a lot, but it will give you a bit of an idea as to what we do...
