I'd love to go but unfortunately we've already booked our holidays for next year and the dates clash.

I'm going to see Bruce Springsteen in a couple of weeks at the 02 but I'd much rather have gone to IM :smt012

May I ask why a person shouild go AND enjoy themselves, when its obvious that they won't, as they had to ask in the 1st place :smt017

As to wtf TTFFT means? Please enlighten me too


I'm voting YES, go and relive days gone by......... wear tight jeans, ripped T-shirts, leather jackets with Eddie on the back, headbang, get drunk, vomit on your neighbours shoes.... then tell your children they shouldn't do such things :smt018

OK, I've been prevaricating around the vegetation about this long enough...

It's pay week next week, so I'll buy myself a ticket then. Hopefully I've still got some black jeans and the T-shirt from the '92 concert kicking around somewhere....

It's the V-twin thing. There's just something about it that inline-4s don't have at all, and V-4s don't have enough of.

I noticed that there's a Led Zep gig on TV late tonight - only spotted it briefly before I left for work but I think it's a concert from many years ago.

Probably worth watching. :smt003

As fate would have it...

The first concert is tonight and is sold out. Which is OK, as my fiancee's sister is back from Hong Kong for a few days and we're having a family meal to celebrate.

The second (and last) concert is tomorrow. It's Chinese New Year tomorrow and my fiancee's family are Chinese. So we're celebrating.
