How's you dink
dank doing, Paddy here with my weeklyish message and quote.
Well we've started the main leg of the tour playing
Liverpool on Friday and Wolverhampton on Saturday, both gigs
went down well especially Wolverhampton. I say this because
the Liverpool Neptune gig was a bit of a let down for us,
the audience were fantastic and the feed back we had was
great, the problem was the sound. |

(The Neptune -
Liverpool)
Our very
own mugs, you don't want to
drink out of anything that's had
Steve 'Mr Nice Guy' Edge's lips round it.
|
I don't know if
anybody noticed but every single music cue came in either to
late or to soon and when you've got a theatre full of people
this isn't the thing you want to happen. Myself and the rest
of the Bandwagoners got to the gig at 6 o'clock and preceded
to do 3 or 4 sound checks, everybody
happy............................................... NO.
After all that they still managed to f**k up every single
music cue we had.
At the beginning of the show you may have thought it was
part of the act that I had to introduce myself four times
but now you know the truth, the people or person on sound
just kept getting it wrong. Again if you sensed a feeling of
uneasiness from ones self or any of the other Bandwagoners
then I apologise, it was out of our hands but thanks again
to the Liverpool audience for making our night.
|
I'd just calmed down from the Liverpool show when we arrived
at Wolverhampton Civic Hall, my first question to the Tour
Manager (Gordon) was, "as the soundman been sniffing glue
again tonight". Gordon assured me that they were spot on
here and by god he was right. When your on stage and you
know that everything is running smoothly it makes a big
difference to the show so we were all in high spirits. The
night was absolutely ficky focky first class and we all had
a fantastic night. The audience were top notch, the sound
crew were top notch and the upstairs bar
was..................................... well, you can't
have it all can you.
|
Some of you e-mailed in saying the staff there told you to
wait in the wrong upstairs bar, it was out of the lad's
hands so if we didn't get the chance to meet you and sign
some of your programmes then I'm very sorry. If it makes you
feel any better we only had a swift pint of the old gold and
cold then went home.
Hope you like the t-shirts, mugs and various other tour
goodies on sale at the shows, hopefully you will be able to
get them through my web site in the next couple of weeks.
I've sent in some more pics of the audiences and if the
fellow who got up on stage at Wolverhampton is reading this,
two words, SENSE of HUMOUR. He looked a bit shocked at my
dance and I don't think he grasped the fact that it's a joke
and that I'm not really a gay male stripper. Anyway, Wigan
Pier next so I'll dig out mi poppers, talc, Northern Soul
records and bid you all farewell.
Until next time, bummers dyslexic are people.
