How Many Times Have You Done It ? No lies please !!!!

[Keith Richard]

Despite lovin this band from the day earth vs. was released, for various reasons, I never had the pleasure while I lived in UK. Now I'm 6,000 miles away, I've seen the Wildhearts twice (Glasgow '04 and Scarbourough '05). I've also seen Ginger acoustic in Glasgow '05. The acoustic gig in Glasgow (Barfly) was absolutely fantastic.....what a sense of humour this guy has. And, of course, Hot Steve shared his Buckfast with me.

Blimey! Even if I've left some out, that's a lot.

[Ean]

And Sonic Circus next Monday.

I thought you were coming to Wolvo? cos that's Sunday night.

I thought you were coming to Wolvo? cos that's Sunday night.

Speaking of Wolvo, is there gonna be a meet up before hand?

[Ean]

Don't see why not. And the little Civic is as good a place as any (mainly 'cos I've got to pick my tickets up from there before the gig).

We'll have to start another thread.

ETA: here for example.

[Damian]

Yep, Sunday. Oops! For a long time I thought it was Monday, but although I got that straight my mind still lapsed above...

Let me know where you'll all be pre-gig. There are four of us coming up from Bristol so whether I make the meet-up bit depends on how the journey goes. Certainly planning on being there early though because of the fantastic support line-up...

[Ean]

It's likely to be the Little Civic (next door but one to the actual Civic). but there's a thread on the Sonic Circus board.

Um, the astoria Dec 04 (the one they were meant to fillum)? (you were everybody's person to spot with your lights), and (since everyone else has cheated too) the birthday bash a week later, and the first ever sonic circus gig. Oh, and the barfly acoustic (with Jackdaw4) sometime last year. That's all the meet ups I can remember anyway.

(Um, I'm not a stalker or anything, honest )
