Woah! Woah! Woah!

Blast wasn't implying anything.
Music is the religion.
Can we now stop all this 'my Dad's bigger than your Dad sectarian BS?'

Puh-leez!

and this means nothing to me :oops: :D

there was none of that going on here yon barman...as the above conversation about such things showed. just because this isn't "general chat" doesn't mean that we have to leave our brains at the door :wink:

Where I grew up, the working class game is rugby. So if anyone asks "Celtic or Rangers?" I can say - hand on heart - "Neither."

The only fitba terrace I stand on is my local team: Carlisle United.

And when I eventually move back to Scotland, I'll be supporting my local team - wherever that may be.

Anyhow, back to the business of balding goths ...

Back on topic:

Do you think Glesga will be the last night of the tour :?: Or the European tour at least (would they play Russia or Asia?)

If it was we could really be in for a treat! :D 8)

Glesga will have to be the end, if there are no new tunes.

I think you know my method.

Could be, but I'm thinking Belfast and/or Dublin might be on the agenda.

Eastern Europe dates would also make sense.

Bought my ticket from Tickets Scotland last Monday. I'm going to the shows in Amsterda, Nottingham and my hometown The guy standing behind me was buying some too. Should be a good turn out.

I wonder what Eldritch will make of the glitter ball...
