  1. YouTube has just gone up in my estimation! I was actually at this gig at the age of 18 with a quarter bottle of scotch and *shudder* a 12 foot tarten scarf. I can remember this gig as it was the one where Kieth Richards made a guest appearance. Shortly afterwards, it was annonced that Ronnie Wood was leaving the Faces to join the Stones
  2. This was the first birthday gig we went to when the Foos were support!!!
  3. Birthday gigs included these guys in one of the first gigs from the new Wembley stadium but their YT channel won't play it atm so here's something more recent from somewhere warmer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9MO1FFGj7M
  4. In the crowd for this one as well. For a while I used to take my 3 boys (now aged 24, 27 and 29) to summer gigs as birthday presents http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-98DQdaTqs And it was topped off by this part - apparently we were all mofo's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WFw7rgPumY
  5. Saw these guys in a much, much smaller venue - in a fire trap basement below The Hope and Anchor pub in Islington, London to a couple of hundred people "This is our first single which is out now"
  6. Another high point, I think me andthe missus were there the night before as we didn't get wet!

  9. Now a bunch of absolute nutters!

  11. Saw these guys live in a rammed small venue in Norwich. - really edgy gig

  17. Something good to cheer you all up:- Honesty pays off for homeless Boston man Donations of more than $110,000 (£67,000) have poured in from across the US for a Boston homeless man who returned a lost bag with $42,000 in it. Glen James alerted police after he found the backpack containing cash and traveller's cheques last weekend, and the bag's owner was then tracked down. A complete stranger later started an online fund for Mr James after reading media reports about his honesty. The man, Ethan Whittington, now plans to meet Mr James to give him the money. Mr Whittington, who lives in Midlothian, Virginia, said he was so overwhelmed by Mr James' honesty that he decided to start the fund. "The fact that he's in the situation he is, being homeless, it blew my mind that he would do this,'' Mr Whittington was quoted as saying by the Associated Press. He said his idea of starting donations on a crowdfunding website for Mr James "caught on like wildfire ever since". "It's brought me a lot of hope. This isn't only about rewarding a great guy. I think it's a statement to everyone in America. "If we come together and work toward one thing and work together, then we can make it happen." Meanwhile, Mr James, a former Boston courthouse employee, said that he would not have kept "even a penny" of the money he had found in the backpack - even if he were desperate. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-24170670
  18. Can't see it on an iPad but I think I've seen it before. It leaves me with two thoughts, the first is serious and the second is also serious but typed with a smile:- I love the way some of you guys on here think about things and are also able to express those thoughts intelligently and isn't God wonderful?
