Ah well I've pulled round a bit now so maybe I'll give you a quick run down.

Got there nice n early and managed to hear the soundcheck and knock back some ale. Too much ale (again) to be honest.

When the support bands were on I managed to have a chat with Random, the guy on sax (he looked totally uninterested) the drummer and say hi to Jase. Even managed to mumble sonething to the great man himself while that robotshite guy was on stage. Said hello to Luis after the gig but I was a bit worse for wear by then.

Met horrid_jon and managed to drop my pint on the floor, said a quick hello to Zo (nice hair btw)

Great show in front of a small but enthusiastic crowd. Was virtually note for note the same as last tour but awesome all the same. Was good to actually see Luis this time, he was hidden at Legends.

Wish I was going to Download!!!!

yeah, who the hell WAS that guy? he was strange and he confused me... but didn't introduce himself or anything.

I wonder what he's like in real life.

Ginger was great though, I've only seen him acoustic the last two times I've seen him but the energy was amazing. Such a fun gig!! Oh yeah... and if there's a guy on here who I let have that drumstick after we both grabbed it as the band went off for a break... don't worry, I got a drum stick from him when the whole thing had finished, as well as that set list! :wink:

That'll be Chris 'Robochrist' Catalyst. He's a top bloke - and a Listee even - from Leeds (I think), and a really nice guy when I met him at the Ginger gig at the Barfly in Brum. He plays with the Sisters of Mercy when he's not being wierd by himself too... :)

If it's one you didn't recognise from the album it could be:

Answering machine
Listen to the music
Boys keep swinging
Sonic shake
29x the pain

He also plays keyboards for the really rather good Scaramanga Six. Busy chap!

Only just got round to this comment! Had a top night, thought the performance was full of energy and style, just as I've come to expect. All my friends enjoyed it too, two of which hasn't seen G&TSS before, and are now fully converted disciples! Bring on their next tour.
