How many of us are up here in the north? I know there are alot of diehards in the south! its just sometimes i feel like i'm the only fan here! Are there others like me? Is my wife right? Is it alright to be 33 and obessed with the same band for 14 years? Please help!

    Sorry if i've annoyed you mate, i'm not one for tryin to seperate things, i'm just tryin to find out if there are any PJ fans in my neck of the woods. Like i said i know there are plenty of fans in ireland its just they are as rare as rockin horse shit round here. I mean on the very rare occasion i see someone in a PJ shirt or listenin to the music i always make an attempt to talk to them! Again i,m not into divides north, south i don't care just so long as we continue to rock the free world!!!!!!!!!!

    No problem mate be glad to say hello next time i see you in a PJ shirt! As for being a wee bit strange, well my excitement at seein someone who loves our band always overides the notion that this person might think your a freak! anyway my wife says i'm a freak anyhow! Wasn't the song "Strangest Tribe" written with us like- minded souls in mind!

    i know some people on the flight who booked the same flight in and outbound as me, and now the girl is taunting me cause shes going to annoy me.
    bit pissed i have to go out a bit earlier to the arena, i got my tickets and the plastic on the front was melted and the tickets have heat damage, so i might have to get replacements .i have 4 seated, and i've two spare, nobody trusts me to give them the tickets once we get there because i dont know if they'll be accepted otherwise :(

    i'll probably be wearing my pj shirts around auntie annies or limelight.
    mentioning auntie annies, occasional singer in there does a cover, and if anybody is on facebook here, search groups "auntie annies: :D
