I gotta tell ya, I'm getting pretty excited about this gig, last time I saw the sisters live was in birmingham in 92, the sisters where fab as always, but I seem to remember that one of the support bands had 2 drummers and von spent part of the night crawling around the stage playing peek-a-boo from behind the monitors, those crazy days ;)

mmmm, that night, comfortably numb / some kind of stranger made me weep a little, or it was possibly the beer / smoke combo, or quite possibly the hit to the nuts i'd just taken trying to fight my way up to the front..... who knows ;)

so, who's up for a beer before / during / after the show???

Damn, wish i'd got my hl t-shirt back in the day, any left quiffy?

My tickets arrived yesterday.

Yes, I got a hotel near the venue - the Best Western Normandy Inn.

Seems within walkin distance and the cheapest decent hotel in the area.

Is there seriously nobody else coming to this one?

Either way, beers after the show at O'Donovans pub or the Hard Rock cafe?

We've arrived in Minneapolis. It is cold but so is the beer.

Have already taken a spin down to First Avenue. If anyone wants a gig poster, let me know :)

See you tomorrow.
