What time does the bus pick you up from the old folks home Big G?

And I didn't see incontience pants on your list of mods! Have BMW added this to the aftermarket options list? :p

Hey, I'll have you know I was probably the youngest person there last night :approve: Kept an eye out for you Big G but didnae see you.
Although I ain't a huge Rush fan (I was dragged along by one of my elderly workmates ;)) I've got to say it was a damn good gig. Alex Lifeson's one hell of a guitarist (even though he looked like he's been drinking a fair amount of the beer at his Toronto pub :D)

Hey Willie where was your bum parked :question: Mine was J5 right behind the mixing board thingy in the centre at the back of area in front of the stage.
Yeh got to agree with you on Alex :cool: he is one fine guitarist. What about there rendition of 'Crossroads' in the encore - quality :p:D:approve:

Big Gordy
15th September 2004, 04:36 PM
Yes Steve thats them in some very, very dodgy 70's stage gear :I shocking isn't it :dead: I must add at this point I NEVER, I repeat NEVER at any time dressed like that <checks to make sure all the photographic evidence has been destroyed> :p:D:approve:

Scottie

I've never heard of them either. I'm in the right age bracket.

Can't beat Donny Osmond.

:IWhat pictures <steps back as fire rages out of control>
I could beat Donny Osmond preferably with a big stick :p:D:approve:
Culture shock next month though as I'm going to see wee Avril Lavigne next month with the youngest. Her band should be OK but I cannae see her pulling off the live singing bit but I'm going with an open mind (if I remember to take it :p) :p:D:approve:

Miss Lavigne is a treat! I hear she's pretty good...

...but you'll have to wear your skate gear for that one! :cool:

I think you'll be really surprised then G. She's really good live and can actually sing.

Big Gordy
15th September 2004, 06:27 PM
Skater gear :eek: Nah I'll wear ma Rush t-shirt:approve:
Your just trying to lull me into a false state telling me her live singing is OK aren't you :mad: Kirsten recorded a live show she did last year off the radio and its not great I can tell you :( Hope your right though as its Kirsten's first concert so wouldn't like it to be a bummer (although I did phone her from the concert last night just to wind her up :)):p:D:approve:

Avril Latrine - Too much teenage angst for my liking......

You need to go to a Muse concert, now they are excellent!

Big Gordy
15th September 2004, 06:37 PM
Are they not a bit 'songs to slash your wrists' too :question: :p:D:approve:

The Dogfather
15th September 2004, 06:46 PM
Big G - Some tracks are, some aren't. Depends if you that way inclined.

Try listening to some of the tracks @ http://www1.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=92034

I'd recommend - 'Hysteria', 'Butterflies and Hurricanes' and 'Time is running out'

I was a bit further along to your left Big G, block L.
Piece of advice for the Avvy Lavvy concert Gordy. Try makin' yerself look quite dapper, you might just get a click with some of the mothers that are takin' there weans along :D

Worked for me when Linda took me to see Busted ;):approve:

I thought i felt my ears burning... :clown:

Quite looking forward to Av Lav but I'm not getting my hopes up for a cracking show (not compared to Rush anyway). It sounded quite good down the phone!

Anybody who has already seen Avril Lavigne: on a scale of one to ten how good was she?

Big Gordy
