    Did the itunes thing last night and it came up with the long encore break at New York where Eddie goes on about people meeting up at concerts etc, very topical!!!

    hmmm yes topical indeed... the best thing about this meet up is, you know if you go for business meetings or conferences, seminars, etc... you have to make polite chit-chat about business, technology, sales figures, all that corporate shite... and you just pray that one of the people at these conferences has a semblance of musical interest, then you could chat for hours.... but all it is is 47 men in suits blabbering about human resources and crap.....*still rambles on for 15 mins*..... well the best thing is we all have a love for music... its what's brought us together and so fearing that initial small talk and stuff should be discarded like one of Rik Wallers crisp packets..

    i like Leamington Spa Dave... we stayed at a place called Kenilworth once upon a time and had a night out in Leamington Spa... we then visited it the next day as we thought it was a lovely place.... Warwick, Stratford, etc.... all beautiful places... tried 4 fucking times to drive into Coventry though and got lost every time so we gave up.... :(
    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.

    Everyone else, on the possibility of there maybe being some kinda room party afterwards, it may be advisable to stock up your hotel room with beer before going out so it's there when ya get back.

    ALSO, can anyone play the guitar and does anyone plan on bringing one? So we can be complete eejits altogether :)


    i feel Hellsy makes an important point here... bring booze into your rooms before you hit the gig... it means if there is some Travelodge party afterwards we'll have some booze to drink


    also... i cant bring me SG... tis an electric guitar and so someone needs to bring an acoustic... i can hammer out some Pj songs... as long as people are prepared to sing Long Road, Not For You, Thin Air, Immortality, Corduroy, RITFW, Off He Goes, Lukin, Wishlist... oh and In mY Tree... i;ll get the open chords for Black... remember i only being playing 10 months or so.... so if someone is way better than i then by all means... we should all pitch in a quid and buy one of those £30 jobs Argos used to do... then someone could smash it up in a rock n roll stylee before we hit the beds for the night :cool:

    there is a multitude of Pj fans back at the Lodge... obviously people are more than welcome to hang out back at the Lodge...

    thats ok with me Dave... just bring some pennies towards the purchaser/s of the booze....
