    Yep, I concur!!!! Fucking amazing show. For anyone who doubts how good they could be without Layne, you need to get yourself to one of their shows and see just how good they are. Obviously nobody can replace Layne or perform those songs better than him, BUT William Duvall is a superb frontman, and an excellent singer - and I honestly can't think of another singer who could do the songs such justice.

    ScotinAmsterdam set up a flickr group for AIC

    http://www.flickr.com/groups/25432563@N00/

    There are already some cool pics on, if you have any from the Astoria - post them there as well!

    Does anybody know if the guy who took 'the' pic of Ed at the Astoria (jeff's oddesey - don't remember his board name) was there? He had great pics of PJ - maybe the same for AIC?

    Comes with the fall are extremely good.

    I met Duvall at the Royal george, gave him two handshakes and got a signature :):)

    Also i managed to get a Jerry pic which he threw out at the end.

    What an intense show, I doubt any show will ever beat that

    Wasn't in the george to meet William, but me and my mates bumped into him outside Borders bookshop just by the astoria.

    he was really cool, let us get a photo and had a little chat. :D


    what an amazing gig!!!!

    Well, at least that was most of the tickets gone! Your friends just don't know what they missed.

    I wouldn't worry about the quality of the pics - I'm just impressed if anyone could have taken a halfway decent picture with all the jumping up and down and all around....!!!!

    :eek: :eek: ED!!!! How can you say that??? :eek: :eek:

    Emotions apart, though it was a pretty amazing gig, I still think the PJ one was so much more awesome (for me anyway.... :) )

    You've got some great pics there! You should make a good selection of the best ones and upload them on the flickr thingy that ScotinAmsterdam set up. Would be great to have all the pics in one place!

    Thanks :D:D
