I'm going to order two tickets right now, I can earmark one for Andrew S unless anyone else needs one
The offer was much appreciated Mr Blast. :notworthy: :notworthy: And thanks Smiscandlon for beating him to it. :notworthy: :notworthy: And thanks also to Pat's brother for taking the spare one.

I haven't had time to read the reviews, but gigs since the much needed warm-up that was the Vegas show, have been stunning!!! Band in great mood and US crowds are very friendly and appreciative. I'm glad I decided not to lose the beard, as I haven't had a single problem with airports etc. People in the South think more ZZ Top than Bin Laden, although that might change as I go further north.

Mexico here I come :D :D :D

Gawd, yes... I'd never go back there *cough* :eek: :oops: :lol:

It's an option if all else fails. Strictly if all else fails.

As fur Nico's Jam-es, from what I've seen of it recently, it appears to be full of wee lassies in skirts up to their ears... wait a minute, that's why you nominate it, isn't it? :innocent: :lol:

I say Griffin, if others are up for a short walk.

Eva, I think Keef?

Must make our continental friends welcome... 8)

...and yeah, I guess Sleazy's is a better option than the Griffin.

There were some large ones... And it was all "out there" if you get my drift. Cold night as well... :innocent:

So, are we tending towards the rather lovely looking Stavka then?
