The Smurphs are back, Crewe Aug 21st.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Wotcha Reverb,

at a guess, I'd say there was no chance unfortunately - for a kick-off, where's Crewe? Is it anywhere near Dario Gradi's house? But more importantly, I'm brassic. :? :evil: I can't even sort a trip to a mainland festival where I've been magnificently sorted for a guestpass. :eek: :? :cry:

Glad you're still alive anyway. Sold yer shares to the yankee leprechaun yet? Yeah, me too. Profits to the Trust, of course.

So you've changed your name then? :lol:

Oh come on. You've got time to sort out the penny's. It'll be great to punk out without hobbling this time ;D

Looking grim at OT at the moment. Might get a big signing to ease the threat from fans i reckon, though :wink:

Big signing? To sort out the Glazers? F**k that, I'm all for the Shirts throwing a couple of seasons just to land the new 'owners' in enough s**t to throw in the towel.

Well, that's my excuse sorted for being third best for a while. :wink:

Unfortunately, I'm jobless and as skint as at the moment, so there's little or no chance. Which is a ballache, obviously. You can't imagine (well maybe you can) the psychological stress of meeting someone in the pit with a pot seconds before the band strut onstage. :eek: :lol: :lol:

I had to jump on someone's shoulders quicksmart, for my own peace of mind. :lol:

Thank you! :notworthy:
I asked it because I have to book my Tallinn-London and London-Tallinn airlpane tickets soon. I have to be in London from Sept 29 to Oct 1 but if you say there will be Smurphs gig on 9th of October I'll book my London-Tallinn way ticket for 10th of October.

Hey, another (stupid?) question is on its way.
I'm almost booking my tickets to UK and back - what do you think is it too surrealistic to wake up in Leeds and arrive to Gatwick airfield at 4 PM of the same day (the flight starts at 6 PM) :?:
