Astorians with tickets

Of course if anyone feels like posting something in this thread I certainly am not going to object. It could get smutty otherwise.

I don't think it's even possible to reach 5000 this evening! I can't type this fast and seeing as EVERYONE HAS ABANDONED THE CAUSE it's hopeless! I hate giving up though, so must keep going

Getting hot in here though I must say

OK I'm just not cut out for the talking to myself thing. Even I'm started to get worried about my behaviour lately. It's most definitely Dave's fault!!

UKDave

Why the feck is EVERYTHING my fault?!!!

Come on stoney... only 70 to go, we can do it...

stonesgstring

Geez it's lonely in here talking to one's self :(

Dave's a bully, making me type so much. My fingers hurt! *sulks*

Really go for the £999 prize draw... I got the right envelope (number 3) just didn't have the winning ticket :(

Ah cool. Then this wasn't exciting news for you then Just Byrnzie said he got his this morning so I was quite excited to get home and see if mine was here.

It has special packaging so it was worth buying it twice honest

So what songs do you really want to hear tomorrow then?

Yeah the site keeps going off for me, so if I disappear that's why!

Well I was at work so no, not a particularly good day LOL.

Better luck next time with quiz but 2nd isn't bad. I usually come last

Cool...

All the ones they won't play to be honest.... :(

the bends in entirety (would be delighted if they played 2 or 3 songs from it)

Karma Police, Paranoid Android, No Surprises, There There, Myxomatosis...

that sort of stuff but think it will be new stuff that I don't know

Always best coming last, means everyone else is happy

You've listed some of my favourite tracks

I'm a little out of the Radiohead loop. I have everything up to Amnesiac (that was after Kid A wasn't it ?) How many albums have their been since 2001?

Were all copies of Amnesiac a library book or is mine a special edition?

I'm sorry :( Sure it will arrive in the next couple of days as they seem to have started arriving in the UK on Saturday. Says it was shipped on 2 May on the customs form.

Two out of her four meetings were cancelled :(

Conspiracy thing? Oh that It was, erm, nothing really Promise

Ooh yes you have Radiohead gig tomorrow don't you. Hope you have fun. Who you going with?

Not an expert but yeah I think it went Kid A, Amnesiac, Hail To The Thief...

I'm one of those hoping they'll at some point realise that the bends was the best album they ever made, with OK Computer an extremely close second, and stop fucking about... some good tracks on Hail To The Thief though...

I saw them at Earls Court a couple of years ago and was mightily unimpressed... :(

Gonna take my Astoria t-shirt and stand with my arms folded and an "impress me you tossers" look on my face...

On my own again... :( Astoria was first gig I've been to on my own and this is second, my gig buddy's partner is pregnant and having a bad time of it, plus he's not a big Radiohead fan...

Looking for someone to go to The Who with in Leeds still...

So I'm only one album out of the loop. Not as bad as I thought then

Hope it's a good gig if you weren't impressed last time. Where is the gig?

Noticed the Americans on here getting all excited about them touring Stateside.

I'm starting to wonder if I can be bothered going to see the Chilis at Earls Court as I got my ticket in the presale and then friends couldn't get tickets for the same day. I saw them at Docklands Arena and Hyde Park recently and am not feeling excited about seeing them this time. Could be the Pearl Jam effect (although I am looking forward to the Foos).

What do you think of Stadium Arcadium as I haven't bought it yet?

Think this is the main reason I'm not looking forward to the Chilis. Astoria was my first gig on my own. Don't really fancy being surrounded by loads of 15 year olds

Confession time my one time seeing Roger Daltery was when he came on stage with Little Angels at The Royal Albert Hall for their last ever gig. Somehow I think you seeing them in Leeds may be better

Yeah... I think they have another album coming out this year...

Small venue, great venue, Wolverhampton Civic saw Jane's Addiction there a couple of years ago (reliving my past - saw them early nineties in Newcastle - phenomenal)

Seeing Chili's in Coventry - new album is good although haven't really paid it enough attention yet, what with new PJ and boots and vids to watch...

I... er... cough... saw Little Angels in Middlesbrough.... yeah... part of the appeal of the Leeds gig was Flaming Lips and eels too (although I think eels are now questionable... :mad: )

Ah Dave getting too good for arenas keeping it real in the small venues Hopefully that alone will make it a good gig.

Do you get your gig partner back for the Chilis? Thats another thing having to learn a double album of material in time for the gig :rolleyes:

Yeah... he's back for that one, plus my eldest and one of his mates, plus one ticket that is 99% allocated but might come free...
