RE: My plane's crash landed

["Richmond Mike" <Mike.Richmond@ho...gsi.gov.uk>]

Greetings from another member of the "horrible" audience.  So you were the
person dancing with the Salvador snorting "scouse git".
I forgive you.  Only because you were not the annoying prats who insisted
on
pointing at the members of the band near the end.
I have the set list if anyone is interested.  Being a "Scouse git" I of
course nicked it at the end, not during like our finger pointing friends.

So there I was at Manchester (Crap sound, boys played on through
adversity),
Liverpool (Slightly better sound, horrible audience -I was the only dancer
apart from some drunk scouse git who was so out of it he fell over) and
Leeds - fab venue, fab gig, my girlfriend (the tall dark gorgeous one)
liked them and her sister fancied Max and spent the night taking photos of
them with a local newspaper toggie's camera!. I've been kissing Gerard
again
and had a very long chat with him about the state of the music industry -
after the somewhat disillusioning manchester gig. he's happy playing to
crowds of 75 and shifting a handful of CDs (so he says!). I worked out
Gerard is now 40 -we talked about him seeing the Kinks aged 14 in 1974! .
If
you were at any of the gigs and these words help identify me speak up and
lets talk to each other at gigs ! Might make it down to Bristol or London
depending on cash. I have new CD to our US friends I suggest you order
one -
it's only ten pounds and worth every penny. Roundheads is a song the BAs
have beenthreatening for years - a 16 minute work out that puts the likes
of
death in Vegas to shame. To Kate I have photos of me and Gerard and the
band
- I'll send you copies whern I've finished off the film - perhaps in
bristol. Until then  let your arms rotate, send money send food send
anything to gerard and the boys - music needs them, we need them, we love
them.
