    that's devastating...
    let's just Invite them over with us, have our private all night gig at the rayal george...

    oh, didn't you know that there's going to be an acoustic ed pre-set at the royal george? i already reserved a chair for him...

    i'm not sure if everyone in the band will be up for a post-gig though... G.A.Y. clubnight at the astoria might be much too tempting...


    EDIT: i should have added some smilies obviously :D

    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.

    actually that is too devasting too contemplate... ok, lets just say we'll all be meeting up for a drink again after the greatest event of the year... nay lifetime :cool:

    i suppose we can sort this out nearer the time/on the day.

    but i wanna hit a few pubs afterwards to celebrate this momentous occasion...

    with the possibility of eddie's hero in the audience there's gotta be a who cover...

    RITFW would also be appropiate (since it's not a US gig) ;)


    there are many cover songs i'd love to hear but if i had my way i'd rather have them play a special one-off cover song that marks the occasion... london calling?

    if they did a Jam song i'd collapse in a molten bubble of scottish gloop... i adore The Jam... not as much as PJ but they are up there in my book!!

    London Calling would be amazing as well though!

    Calm down man it's two weeks away... you'll do yourself an injury!!

    Baba O'Riley.........?!

    I fancy London Calling too!!

    How about Stones - Paint It Black?

    Personally would love some Lizzy but that's probably for over the Irish sea...

  • Aww cmon. Rockin' in the free world would be fucking awesome! I saw G3 play it in Birmingham as the first time i ever heard it, then i downloaded the PJ version, then i downloaded the Neil Young version and now i just love it. That one would be wicked.

    This time in 2 weeks, it'll all be over :(
