Hi kiddies, everyones written about the gigs and how fantastic the whole weekend
was, I've just got to add my wholehearted (almost, but let's get the good stuff
over with first) agreement on the whole aceness of the weekend.
The journey up to Glasgow, giggles, old timers with their mini pork pies, long
walks for cigarettes, but hey, it's all worth it when glorious Glasgow's at the
other end :-)
Oh Glasgow, home of lovely people, glorious 80 shilling bouze and the
barrowlands, not the most slubrious of venues but twinkling with buzzy stars
nonetheless. I'd been waiting since 1998 for the moment and when it arrived it
never went away (but why did it take 3 songs?) goosebumps all over, shivers down
my spine I was finally watching my heroes and they didn't let me down,
absolutely fan-bloody-tastic. I'm not going to go on about which songs they
played and that cos you already know, but they were sooooo cool.
Saturday's picnic wasn't too good to me as I was feeling somewhat under the
weather (and no it wasn't beer for a change) so sorry I wasn't my usual self,
but hey there was another gig round the corner:-)
We got in, saw the shufflers this time (fun, apart from the scotland 10 -
england nil reference boo) and then some songs were played while we waited and
then the lights went out and they were back!
And they rocked, so much better than the night before, the goosebumps were there
from the start and then it happened.............
Some chuffing halfwit wannabe Ned started going on and on and on, not content
with belting out all the slower songs terrace style (especially on we rule the
school i.e,. the song sprout wanted to hear more than all the others), trying
to make funny comments and generally being a wanker. Requests for him to shut
up were completely ignored and I couldn't even throw him out of the window as I
wouldn't then be allowed to stay and watch the band! So if anyone sees a
wannabe ned with cropped hair, big glasses and an expression that makes Cletus
the Slack jawed yokel from the simpsons look like Christian Slater then thank
him for taking a hell of a lot of gloss of what should have been one of the best
nights of my life by pushing him in the Clyde for me.
I'm not normally like this, honest.
Love
Cabbagexx
PS and sprout says hi to all those she met :-)
