Hey hey! New tale from the middle of nowhere:
Who'd have thought it, eh? (Not me, that's for sure) The 2 nights in Birmingham being the best of the entire world tour so far. I'm not one for blowing smoke up people's arses (does anyone know what that means? Has anyone ever tried it?) but if you were in the crowd on the 2nd night, buy yourselves a drink. It was really special.
I'm currently with my right-hand man Gem. We're on the way to the Republic of Ireland aka 'The Land of my Fathers' to give a press conference in order to make an announcement about some super-gig we're doing there next year. I'd tell you but by the time you read this you'll have heard about it anyway (or maybe not). Either way it'll give me a chance to get rid of some of them Euros at the local sweet shops, Irish sweeties being the best in the world'n'all that.
Mind how you go.

There's two tales more:
So..where we were? 4 weeks off? No thanks. Not at my age. Think my missus had had just about enough of my creaky bones moping around the house. In fact, I know she has ‘cos she told me so (more than once).
We are currently in the home of skiffle. Liverpool. Both shows were great (in places). Don’t think the set-list is quite right yet. It’s maybe a bit too long (I think). Them scousers were wild, wild, wild though. You could feel the noise (more of the same for the rest of the tour please). Big thanks to Ricky Hatton who kicked off proceedings by threatening the entire audience! I think every scouse band that ever was was on the guest list. Caught up with old friends and family. Had a few with Digsy (yep him!) and met Andrew Loog Oldham. What a gent.
And I think that was that, apart from me leaving my new electric toothbrush in London, but that’s another story.
We’re homeward bound today. Got a day off in Manchester. It’ll be great to walk those streets again. It’s good to be back.
In a bit.
GD.
Now then. 3 days in Manchester and 2 nights in Sheffield have done us the world of good. Was great being back home where it's at. Makes me wonder what on earth we were thinking about when we left for London all those years ago. The city seems to have gone from strength to strength. A wondrous place indeed. The 2 nights up in Sheffield were colossal. Played like a c*** on the 2nd night, mind. Sorry 'bout that. The 1st night though..phew! It was the gig of the year so far and a pleasure to be there.
Currently on the bus. The boys are trawling through the 2nd series of 'Rising Damp'. Very funny. We're en route to Birmingham. See you there if you're going.
In a bit.

My life can go on, knowing that Noel has a new electric toothbrush.
His gf sounds funny, lol. I guess you would have to be, being with Noel. Although ive seen really cute pics of them together. I bet he is actually a real softy. |

If you go to Ireland I will call you a sell out.
Just a warning.
and im sure none of these will compare to their December show in London ONTARIO! Oh right, London is lame, hence why it is refered to in my circle as "the Bad London." |
