    Dear Gordon

    This is the truth.

    Usually there are about seventeen people jumping up and down the near 
the band. 16 of them are trying to steal the set lists for their 
scrapbooks. The other one is trying to work out the chords to the songs by 
staring at the guitarists' fingers.

    Sometimes some of them jump in the air to express their excitement. I 
have been know to do this.

    There is then a bank of standing supporters who tap their feet and 
negotiate between one another about buying beer which comes in plastic 
containers. Behind them is usually a space. Then there is a group of 
people perched on furniture. These included shy people like me, people who 
have come in absurdly erotic but ultimately impractical four inch 
stilletos and the people who are staring at the noise gates at the sound 
desk trying to work out how to play the drums like John Langley.

    At the other side of the bar are the people who haven't realised the 
Blue Aeroplanes are on. They are mostly eating fish and chips.

    The Avon Gorge Hotel is in a marvellous situation and in the heart of 
Bristol's Hampstead as I'm sure you know.

    Fiddlers isn't.

    I think the nosh is as good in Clifton as the mosh in Bedminster.

    A cold frosty morning on the Clifton Downs after a BA gig is something 
uniquely heavenly.

    I don't know why I'm saying all this. I couldn't persuade Elise to 
come. She had a faraway look in her eyes.

      In an effort to cajole the missus into the trip, I also considered 
the 'DO' Bristol thing-,and found the Avon Gorge Hotel, overlooking 
Brunels' Bridge on the net; it's a oner and a bit for a double with view, 
but  she is really dubious about the moshing and i've got next weeks time 
sheet in my hand, so if I do swing it, it'll be Dury's, which is 
riverside, apparently, and probably sixty or so.....or maybe Lisa's Toad 
Lodge.
      Book early ha!

      Hi All,
       
      My girlfriend has confirmed she will come to the gig! (she of 
Westlife fame), but only cos I told her we could 'do' Bristol the day 
after (there's bound to be a City or Rovers home game!).
       
      I need to book accommodation. We have had this discussion before I 
am sorry but could anyone give me some pointers as to where best to stay?
      It;s a long drive from Shropshire in a little Peigeot so we may come 
on the train. According to my computer map thing it's about a mile from 
the station so if you see anyone looking lost........
       
      Cheers,
       
      Mark.
