    Got back into Newcastle at 6pm after being on the coach since 9.30am! My bum hurts!

    Fantastic night - gig was amazing, still floating! People we met were just as amazing - Nicky, Sophie, Byrnzie, Keith, Gav - and the Kiltsmen!!!!!! Hi everyone!

    Going in the bath, then going to bed - exhausted!

    americans use this word almost daily to describe things such as the price of socks or the taste of a 99cent hamburger but last night was truly "awesome"

    can anyone tell me where i was between 1am and 6am... i have nae idea :)

    4 hours kip and then some breakfast and train home..... "awesome" :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.

    midnight..... tut tut tut ;) .... it was an emotionally draining experience wasnt it?

    I'm not going to reading.... i guess they'll be playing UK dates in and around Reading dates and i want to be at those instead... my dream is to hear Do The Evolution and Corduroy live and one of those has been done.... so Corduroy next please Ed :)

    This sounds silly... But who did i actually meet yesterday? People were saying "Are you Ellie?" and then telling me their names but not their user names...? The only people who's names i remember are the Scots and Byrnzie!

    Aww i totally missed the Scottish bum. I wish i'd seen that. Were you standing next to Foull's mum?! We tried to make her wave but totally missed it. I guess we were too busy jumping around.
    Does anyone know who the guy that was wearing the green shirt with the long brown curly hair tied back was? He told me his user name. Anyway - who ever you were - you seemed really nice :-)

    ouch!!!!!!!
    still hurting being 5 8" and 9 stone and being in a mosh with massive hairy man will take its toll not mention my increasing years...
    so im going to try and sum up the day for me in this list sorry if i forget anyone!!!
    1)meeting up in george was cool!! specially to byrnzie, keith, an american guy called nick i think and his friend, nothingman and friend, a shaven head aussie sorry man forget ya name mate-let me know who you are!! obviously the crazy scots, given2fly-respect for your walkabout , i think getting pissed b4 the show may have been a mistake???
    2)forget her name but whoever held up the queue for us right at front-thank you!!!
    3)my mate carl(cjc) brought wrong size t-shirt said i would get him it swapped, took one or two wrong turnings, dont know where i ended up but a eastern european security guard suggested i should turn around, being slightly worse for where we i decided we should talk about it!!!!
    4)whole set rocked, little more would have been nice, but i was gone at that time anyhow, present tense, porch, why go, do the evo in particular
    5)anyone 4 or 5 rows back in middle, you probably held me up a few times, cheers
    6)made ellie and byrnzie speak to each other without a mention of sweatbands-united nations beckon!!
    7)was that kelly jones at the george after???
    8)left pretty early after as previously mentioned like byrnzie im getting tooo old for this.....
    9)byrnzie i will see you in about a week for morrissey, im off now to watch spurs beat arsenal then onto see the kaiserchiefs

    again thanks
    like a book amongst the many on a shelf.......

    Byrnzie - who is the girl in the blue Ramones t-shirt in your pictures?

    She stood behind me for the whole show and I meant to get her contact details, but completely forgot at the end of the night?
