I don't think you're giving the experience of a Heartland meet the credit it deserves. Some of us aren't just going for The Sisters 8)
True enough young chap. But you have to admit, a gig from The Girls on top of meeting and getting p1ssed with the finest this planet has to offer (even the leeds and scouse fans :wink: :twisted: ) is about as good as it gets.
There is increasing evidence to suggest that Chris may have been being sarcastic.

I have been away long time. Can't find is there a thread about Warlocks? I quite liked them live, bought their CD, finally even another CD by them and... didn't like very much to listen to them at home. Now my friend who has been a a member of several indie pop bands since 90s or so, listens to theose CDs. He has plenty of time to do it ;D But - as I said - I really enjoyed them all 6 times before Sisters :)

I told you not to worry about that already.

This is an opinion based on no facts whatsoever apart from prior experience, although it was, ulp, a long time ago...

As long as you are over 16 you are fine, although under 18s should be accompanied by an adult. I've taken my son to the Astoria when he was 14 with no problems for age restricted gigs. I expect the door staff generally can't be arsed to check ages though.

Negotiations have been concluded. Dispatches from the war room should be on their way in the next day or three. Watch that space.

I've walked into the astoria alone around the age of 14! They have those same age restrictions for HIM gigs, think of all the underage people at them! :roll:

Headlines and deadlines prevent such situations I'm afraid.

Though we are tinkled pink to have them on board, once the i's are crossed and the t's dotted.

My interpretation is... a support act has been organised for the uk dates. The "ones for the boys" suggests we might have some nice girlies to look at. :P

:lol: To support The Sisters?

Can you imagine the lighting rig you'd need to do the proper deal for both bands? :eek:

Yes I can. And it's lovely. And shiny. And would just about fit into Soldiers Field at Roundhay Park. :von: :lol:
