you should have seen it - they swarmed to him, pushing, shoving and shouting. it was like a feeding frenzy. rude, obnoxious and embarrassing. shameful really. some people really do have no manners :|
Now does everyone understand why my radar went berserk over Miss Portland? Gah. :urff:

He should've done a Chris and taken off his shades and put a flat cap on. Fooled me. :lol:
And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.

Well, that’s what happens when you’re 50, bald, "drawn", dressed in baggy clothes, haven’t released an album in 17 years, don’t appear on MTV, hardly ever give interviews, and never say “I love you� in between songs during gigs: you get swarmed to by tens of them. Otherwise, you would get swarmed by hundreds and thousands. Being a rockstar, as any other job, has its pros and cons. :|

Damn! Why didn't I stay? Curse those early trains.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

Some big bald old man was talking drunkenly at me I've just recalled. I was mildly disturbed....

Was that you? :eek: I've never seen you ( or about 95% of the people on here for that matter ) so I wouldn't know. I was wearing a black underbust corset over a white shirt if that helps...

You might not have seen Weebles, but considering you were in the same area code you were probably offended by his trousers :wink:

I was standing near Chris outside when I was having a cigarette, but I hadn't the nerve to say anything to him :oops:

I bet it was one of those pesky Belgians :innocent: :P
Wasn't me that's for sure... I saw him come in, he was standing just a few feet away from me, then ASF's I Walk The Line came on and between him and the dancefloor... there was no contest really.

Shame I had to leave after about 2 minutes of it. :roll: :(

Staying for the duration would've meant an 11 mile middle of the night walk & I didn't fancy it. :urff:
