Hi Amgard

Yup! I received a 'memsahib' update on that one too! :lol:

I see you're in Oxford.... coming to the concert in Headington on 9 April? If so come and say 'hi' - I'm "doing" sound.

Hi Macca and welcome! :)

We're a happy crowd here and you'll not encounter the 'edginess' and bickering prevalent on some other forums.

Keep us posted on progress with the playing.

Best wishes. Mike

Great news Sue!

Do you know if it will be released commercially after the tour? Some of us may not make it to one of the concerts... :cry:

Thanks. Mike

Great review, as ever, Keith and the thanks of Gordon, Ray and myself for your (and Fiona's!) help in derigging and loading vehicles. You're a prince among men!

... and a brief follow-up...

All went well - apart from a bit of envy about why Gabriel got to wear a 'Kylie' headset mic when the others didn't! :)

... and a word to the wise... never buy batteries intended for radio mics from the 'Pound Shop'! :lol:

Merry Christmas! :D

The PA system must get through!

Taking some PA gear to our local church to augment their sound system for tomorrow's nativity:

Surely not? You're one of the most affable and humorous people I know... you know even more jokes than I do!

Didn't know there was an attendance contest, Mike. What's the prize?

I'll buy you a small beverage next time I see you! :lol:

Maybe one day we WILL meet! :lol:

Heartsong on Radio 2

According to the memsahib, Heartsong was played a short while ago by Steve Wright on Radio 2 in his 'oldies' section. Presumably this refers to the music and not the musician! :lol:
