First: A very massive THANK YOU to all who are posting all the pics, reviews, videos etc. from the US shows!!!

Second: Will all the stories that Fran told between the songs be part of the bootleg CD? I hope so, 'cause this is the most interesting part of it, isn't it? And I hope we european fans can buy the CD soon...

Third - To Fran: If it's not possible to get the CD, will there be another way to enjoy the stories behind the songs one day? Haven't I heard that you want to write a book...? Or - I hope your answer will be YES to this question - will there be a european (incl. Germany) tour with "Frandy"???

I know, there are a lot of vids on youtube where you can listen to the stories, but the thing is: I have massive problems to understand your scottish accent!! I love listening to it, but it's a pity that I understand just "Bahnhof" (=railway station, it's a german saying that means "I understand nothing!")!!

Thanks a lot, and have a great tour!!

Silvia.

LOL! I had this very same problem with some of the videos. There are some gigs that I don't understand a thing, and others I understand just fine. I guess my "scottish understanding skills" vary from day to day :oP.
I decided I'm going to ask Ben if he can translate some parts for me :oP (sorry Ben! Haha).

Well I think it's a matter of what he says and how much Scottish slang he puts in there. I understand about 80% and the rest I can understand by watching his body-language and hearing the crowd's reactions :P
